About this property

This beautiful single-storey cottage is situated right on the famous Elizabethan harbour, overlooking the river, in the picturesque village of Boscastle. This delightful cottage is in a spectacular ravine location, one of the most idyllic in the county, offering direct access to the famous South West Coastal Path, and a perfect base for families and friends who wish to tour the dramatic north coast of Cornwall. Parking in your private space right next to the cottage, you enter into the porch leading you into the comfy sitting room. There are two bedrooms here, both with fine river views, a double with en-suite facilities and a twin bedroom. The kitchen, with dining area and bathroom, complete the accommodation. Outside the cottage is a patio area, a perfect spot to watch the world go by and relax. When it comes to an evening out, just a short stroll from the cottage will take you to the centre of the village. Here you will find a choice of excellent pubs and restaurants, including the famous Cobweb Inn which, even in the winter with its two open fires, is a most welcoming Cornish pub, with a good local reputation for excellent food, and a fine choice of locally-brewed ales. Venture south to Tintagel to spend the day touring Glebe Cliff, Merlin's Cave and Tintagel Castle, before embarking on the National Trust Bagalow hike. Camelford isn't far and is home to the North Cornwall Museum & Gallery, along with the Davidstow Airfield and Cornwall at War Museum for those aviation fans. Port Isaac, Crackington Haven and Bude are just moments away and also make for great days out by the coast. A beautifully-furnished cottage in a truly stunning location and perfect for all year round holidays and short breaks.

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 clifftops, rocky coves, wild surf, open fields and rich wildlife characterise this beautiful area. The coastal footpath is also just a stone's throw away.

    The property is very pretty on the outside and comfortable inside and had everything we needed. The owners are very quick to address issues mentioned in previous reviews (gate fitted, someone looking at the windows as we left). It is ideally located in that you are close to everything (lovely shops, places to eat , the harbour and walks) but the downside of that is that it isn't very private when you are sitting out.I would say that parking is tight but the windows guy managed to get an enormous truck in with room for other vehicles to get by. Recycling is an issue. There no longer seem to be bins on the car parks and the tip was closed when we took everything the day before we left. Generally a lovely place and we will return.
