Spend special time together in pretty Polruan, watching the boats drift in and out and basking in the Cornish sunshine. This outstanding, three-storey house sleeps eight guests across four bedrooms and is an ideal option for a group of friends or relatives. Overlooking the harbour at Polruan, it captures sea views from inside and out and makes a fabulous base for coastal walks and days on the beach.
Enter this period retreat to shuffle off your shoes in the hall before discovering two of your bedrooms, a double and a king-size, at ground-floor level - both with en suite facilities, plus there is also a convenient WC/utility room on this floor. Follow a steep staircase down to your main living space, and find a sociable, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner where you can prepare heart feasts for your group when you choose not to eat out, then gather round the table for lively holiday meals together. Settle on the comfortable seating to chat, play games or watch the Smart TV. Open the door to your outside space on fine days to bring in a sea breeze. Some members of your party might also like to enjoy a little quiet time up in the first-floor reading room, where you will also find two further bedrooms - a double bedroom and a super-king-size that can also be made up as a twin by prior discussion are also up here. Completing this floor is the newly refurbished family bathroom which will have a freestanding bath, separate walk in shower and WC. When outside, keep an eye on children at all times on the patio as it is not enclosed. Light the BBQ and take in the views as supper sizzles. Sit out on the balcony with a glass of something cold.
Catch the ferry from Polruan over to Fowey to stroll through its delightful streets, shop and dine out or take a guided boat trip or sea safari. The historic harbour of Charlestown is close by, as well as fishing villages of Polperro and Looe. Plan a trip to the fascinating Eden Project, 9.5 miles away if you take the Bodinnick car ferry.
