This property is the ideal base for families to explore the Cornish coast, located just a short walk from the beach in Polruan. Take a trip over the river to Fowey on the passenger ferry and explore the shops and restaurants or take the small ferry to the village of Mevagissey. For the walkers, there are plenty of coastal paths to choose from and for the beach lovers, take your pick of the many close by beaches along the Cornish coast. For a fun day out there are a range of attractions worth a visit including, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Eden Project, Charlestown, one of the filming locations in the TV series Poldark and Hangloose Adventures.

Step inside to the sympathetically restored and welcoming sitting room with an abundance of charm. With exposed beams and a window seat to sit and watch the world go by, there’s plenty of character here. Enjoy the open fire on a cold winter night or watch your favourite series on the smart TV. From here, a stable door leads to the light and airy kitchen/diner, ideal place for socialising. Enjoy a lazy breakfast or evening meal at the dining table and plan your days ahead. The kitchen is equipped with electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge with ice box. Head upstairs to the two bedrooms, super-king-size zip-and-links (which can be made into twins on request) with plenty of storage. The bathroom has a bath for a long soak after a day’s exploring, and a separate shower cubicle.

Outside there’s an enclosed sunny courtyard perfect for a family BBQ or dining al fresco, just sit back and relax! There are many small winding streets that are not suitable for cars, therefore many properties in Polruan do not have private parking. However, there is a large pay and display car park at the top of the village.

Wonderful week in this delightful cottage. The November sunshine was perfect for exploring the nearby coastal paths on both sides of the estuary. Having the village shop, bakery, Lugger Inn and ferry crossing so close by, meant you could easily spend time here without need of the car - even in the winter! The cottage itself was very characterful, cRead moreomfortable and cosy. I very much hope to return. Hide

Charming, comfortable cottage. Convenient for village shop just opposite, but not so good if you have a dog who needs grass as nearest grassy area is a long way up very steep hill!

Lovely little cosy cottage, ideally situated in the village to access shop, pubs, bus, ferry and the Hall walk. Perfect if (like us) you want to dump the car and rely solely on public transport or foot. Great support from cottage owner, extremely helpful and kind. Lovely welcome with a bottle of wine, biscuits and even some treats for the doggies. Read moreThank you. Hide

A perfect Cottage in a perfect setting! We had everything we needed. The courtyard was great for the dogs - nice and secure. The quay is a few yards away so just a short walk to the pub! Ferry to Fowey was quick and we used the car park right at the top of the hill. I would highly recommend this cottage to all. Thank you!
