About this property
… in Gorran Haven, right on the beach, a quirky, 17th cent., Grade II listed, end-of-terrace cottage, seemingly bigger on the inside than out. Once the local inn where (so local legend says) drunken customers were rolled out on to the beach to sober up! Now a great beach house, comfortably furnished and fantastically positioned for pub, shops, Coast Path and, of course, beach.
Five high steps up from tiny lane to front door; hall (for coats/boots) with tiled floor and shower-room (suite). At this level, two twin bedrooms with wood floors (rugs), one with boiler cupboard (cosy); very narrow, steep, open metal spiral stairs (stairgate at top) down to attractive open-plan living/dining/smart fitted kitchen with microwave, woodburner, TV/DVD, beams and window at ground level looking straight to the beach; large utility room/second kitchen with dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, fridge-freezer, sink; beyond, 2 steps up to games room (table tennis, table football). Second spiral staircase (stairgates) from hall straight up into large double bedroom with two children's z-beds, beams, cane armchairs, TV, great beach/sea views and en suite bathroom (suite with roll-top bath plus hand-shower). Loading and unloading outside; car park (extra), 150 yards (reasonably level walk). Not suitable for people with limited mobility. A good family house.

"Mermaid cottage is in a beautiful location right on the beach and when the tide is in it is lapping at your window. Gorran Haven is a great place for families. Wonderful welcoming locals and a great safe beach for kids. Plenty to do there too and a café attached to the house! The property is beautiful but does have a damp issue. Great views of the sea from all the rooms."
