A perfect Cornish coastal village, the road through Boscastle runs down to the small harbour at the bottom of the hill. The quaint village shops, local restaurants and pubs offering good food, Cornish real ales and live entertainment by local musicians, make this an ever popular visitor destination. Spectacular cliff tops, rocky coves, wild surf, open fields and rich wildlife characterise this beautiful area. The coastal footpath passes through some of Britain’s most rugged and spectacular coastal scenery. The sandy beaches of Bossiney, Trebarwith Strand and Crackington Haven are all within 5 miles and the surfing beaches at Bude and Polzeath are within easy driving distance. Close at hand lie the delights of Tintagel, swathed in the legends of King Arthur, several stately homes and renowned gardens, or the wide open space of Bodmin Moor, famous for its granite tors and Daphne Du Maurier’s Jamaica Inn.

Really quiet, clean and comfortable and very well equipped. The cream tea and bottle of bubbles on arrival was a thoughtful touch and much appreciated touch. We would definitely return here.

John and Elaine were exceptional hosts; their cottage is fitted out to a very high standard. I was especially grateful for the tumble dryer in addition to the washing machine: made doing laundry so much easier! Note: parking anywhere in Boscastle is tight, including the parking pad in front of the cottage (not their fault!) so if you have a larger car, you might have to figure something out in terms of getting it squeezed into the necessary space.
