About this property

Settled in a peaceful position a short distance from the old harbour of the quaint fishing village of Port Isaac, on the north coast of Cornwall, rests this remarkable stone-built holiday home, Gulls Roost. Beautifully-appointed with an effortless blend of contemporary fittings and furnishings paired with original character, Gulls Roost is an idyllic base for a Cornish adventure. A beautifully-maintained front garden greets you upon arrival at the foot of this lovely dwelling, providing a charming spot to soak in the fresh sea breeze with a crisp glass of wine in the evening or indulge in a hearty breakfast ahead of an adventure filled day in the morning. Making your way inside, be charmed by the bright and airy open-plan living space, thoughtfully laid-out with a pair of sumptuous sofas gathered in front of a warming woodburning stove; kick off your shoes and settle down in front of the Smart TV as the designated chef prepares some tasty treats in the nearby kitchen, well-equipped with all the necessities. Uncork a bottle of wine and gather together with your loved ones at the dining table to indulge in a delicious meal, or make meal times an alfresco affair by firing up the barbeque and enjoying a social seat on the rear patio. When the evening grows darker, retreat indoors and climb the stairs to the first floor to discover two fabulous double bedrooms, each adorned with high-quality linens, with the master suite framing idyllic views of the surrounding countryside. Servicing the bedrooms is a contemporary shower room, fit with a handy heated towel rail, where guests can snuggle up to a warming embrace following an indulgent rinse. Boasting a central location in the heart of Port Isaac, you're spoilt for choice with a fantastic selection of pubs, restaurants and cafes resting on your doorstep, ideal for those evenings where you fancy a break from the kitchen or the mornings where you need to fuel your excursions with a hearty English breakfast! After satisfying your appetite, get better acquainted with your surroundings and take a scenic stroll along the harbourside, where you can watch the world go by as the waves gently ripple across the water, or spend the afternoon lounging amongst the glorious sand at Port Gaverne Beach. Lace up your walking boots and embark on a two-footed adventure along the South West Coast Path, traversing the dramatic coastline of Cornwall toward Pentire Point, offering some of the most spectacular views in the county. Jump in the car and journey to the village of Polzeath, where you can try your hand at surfing or dip your toes in the waters of the bay at Polzeath Beach, or if you'd prefer to stay on land, grab a bite to eat with a view at Tj's Surf Cafe. Explore more delights of Cornwall with a visit to Rock, or board the ferry and travel to Padstow, both well worth a visit and full to the brim of sights and attractions. Whisk your loved ones away on a memorable retreat to Cornwall with a stay at Gulls Roost.

A hidden treasure of Cornwall, the picturesque fishing village of Port Isaac rests on the north coast of Cornwall, on the coastline of the Atlantic.

    Would absolutely recommended this cottage to anyone wanting to stay in Port Isaac.

  • Gemma

    A beautiful cottage , modern clean and very comfortable for us and our two little ones. The parking space is a real treck and loading unloading the car is difficult so be aware if you book (it does warn you 15-20mins but uphill ). We used it once then just paid for a pass in the local car park about 7 mins walk away and managed to get a space each time. First experience with Sykes/John Bray. Maybe wouldn’t use them again having been with other Cornish rentals . Not the most outgoing customer service, maybe expect bottle milk/ something on arrival instead a laundry bag asking you to remove bedding when you leave and where to put the rubbish on departure day - no mention of a ‘welcome enjoy your stay!’ Overall fab cottage just maybe the rental Company !

    Back door needs a good push to open it after unlocking Could do with hooks for coats especially if they are wet All facilities we’re excellent so this is in no way a detrimental comment just a point and a suggestion Could do with better directions to the cottage from John Bray and clearer information in the cottage about rubbish and recycling collection A most enjoyable stay, excellent position, pretty cottage, beautifully appointed.
