  • Delightful cottage beautifully refurbished and presented, and bristling with character

Property code: 82949

Gorgeous character cottage nestling at the front of the idyllic fishing village of Polruan overlooking the estuary which provides a comfortable escape to the coast for couples and families alike.

Take a trip to the spectacular south coast of Cornwall where scenic stick chasing spots await. A picture-perfect home for small families, embark on a seaside getaway in the wonderful village of Polruan with its quay, beach and pubs. After salty days by the ocean, relax in style in this quaint cottage where the wood burner-effect electric fire promises to keep sandy paws warm.

Step through the stable door and find yourself in the inviting heart of the home. Light, tranquil tones create a peaceful ambience in which to relax with a sophisticated, coastal theme running throughout. Leave your pup sprawled out by the wood burner-effect electric fire as you head through to the small yet stylish kitchen area to pop the kettle on and rustle up treats. Treat your dog to something tasty after dining at the table and enjoying family meals together with lovely views across to Fowey. Pop plates in the dishwasher and freshen up with a shower before giving your dog the final stroke of the night and heading up the cottage-style stairs to bed. Wake to gorgeous views in the double bedroom or rise and shine in the twin bedroom where the 2’6” beds are perfect for children (one is reached via steps). There is a public car park nearby.

With so many places to enjoy your morning walk, stroll the quayside, hop on the South West Coast Path or tread the Hall Walk. Follow the coast path in the direction of dog-friendly Lantic Bay (1.5 miles) for a swim in the crystal-clear water and ball chase on white sands or continue on further to Lansallos Beach (3 miles) where dogs are also welcomed all year round. For a different vantage point of the ocean, board a ferry with your pup from Polruan Quay.

Lovely cottage in a perfect location for all the amenities . Well furnished with everything you need for weekend away . Good local shop and bakery nearby plus two pubs . car park at top of hill which we didn't mind as we didn't intend using car . Great communication from friendly owner No outside space of note so be mindful if you do bring your furRead morery baby Minor niggles in that it was a bit chilly the first night so took a while to warm up .. neighbours were a bit noisy but not a huge issue Hide

Really good location. As with most seaside towns you have to park up a hill, away from the property but once parked there, there is plenty you can do without needing your car. The local bakery, cafe and two pubs are a great addition and the regular boat to Fowey for more amenities is great.

Probably the best cottage we've stayed in from the communication from the owner before we got there to the nice touch of a welcome pack it's a true gem of a cottage that once you've been you will want to return

We absolutely loved our stay! The location is fantastic, with incredible views right outside of the front door. We ventured out by car everyday which means a very steep walk to the local car park however we enjoyed the morning walk.

Lovely relaxing stay during a indian summer.. Daily commute on ferry to Fowey a highlight especially when collecting fudge from Roly's fudge factory. Great place to start walks from, Lantic Bay, Gribbin head and the walk to Fowey and back via Car ferry following a sunday lunch(Hall walk) are all recommended. There is a cove on the way to Gribbin heRead moread which was peaceful for a swim. I managed to park at end of street ok to unload/load, so as long as you time it right, there is no problem. Hide

Beautiful cosy cottage with an amazing view. The cliff walks were enjoyable with hidden coves to discover along the way. Good pubs a short ferry ride across the bay. Relaxing break.

The cottage was very comfortable and in a great position but like a lot of Cornish villages it was a nightmare getting near to drop off and pick up luggage not helped by trades continually blocking the access road but travel light and dump your car in the car park at the top of the village and enjoy the wonderful location

A gorgeous quaint little cottage, it is small but thats to be expected with this type of property, location was lovely, very close to the quay, gorgeous Fowey a very short ferry stop over the harbour, if you want a more secluded, non tourist like location then this is very likely it!
