About this property
Exuding elegance and style, Albany is a stunning, luxurious holiday home which has been renovated to an exceptional standard to provide stylish accommodation for six people in Cornwall, set over three floors. Situated within a short walk of Port Isaac’s amenities, this impressive holiday home successfully combines contemporary furnishings with traditional features, and is not only dog-friendly, but also boasts sea views, and has a wonderful garden!
On the ground floor is a modern kitchen featuring stylish lighting. The décor is eclectic, mixing Scandinavian minimalism with an underlying coastal theme, to create a unique setting for your holiday. The living room is welcoming, with a woodburning stove and a magnificent exposed stone wall, whilst the dining room - with its reclaimed wooden table and chairs adorned with sheep skins - makes for the perfect place to enjoy a family meal!
On the first floor is the master bedroom with a balcony and sea views, plus a feature hanging chair! Also on this floor is a family bathroom with a wonderful free-standing bath.
Finally, on the third floor are two further beautifully appointed bedrooms - 1 twin and 1 double - and a family shower room.
Outside you will find a delightful garden, featuring a lawn and raised dining area with patio furniture well positioned to admire the views out to sea.
There are many restaurants and cafés just a short walk away in the hub of Port Isaac village - follow dinner with a drink on the historic ‘Platt’, where you can sometimes listen to shanty singers ‘Fisherman’s Friends’ perform. Other top places to visit include Rock and Wadebridge, just 8.5 miles away by car.
For a truly special break beside the sea, Albany is a sensational holiday home where you are sure to make everlasting memories of Port Isaac.
Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village.
