Sally Port Cottage, St Mawes, Truro

About this property

Proudly presented in association with Trinity House, this special property is situated at the furthest point of the beautiful Roseland Peninsula. The lighthouse is still operational, however Sally Port Cottage offers you a totally private holiday home in a stunningly beautiful and unique location.

In association with Trinity House, we are pleased to present Sally Port Cottage at St Anthony's Lighthouse, situated at the furthest point of the beautiful Roseland Peninsula.

Sally Port Cottage is a single dwelling, reached via a 300-metre steep tarmac path leading down to the rocks from the headland above, where the car park is situated. The Lighthouse, for those of you who remember, was the location for 'Fraggle Rock' (the children's television programme, shown some years ago).

The accommodation is totally private with no public access. There is an observation room, which has a large picture window and is furnished with table and chairs, and an electric wood-effect stove so that you can be snug whilst watching the worst of any storms.

Additional Information:

Ideal for a romantic retreat, with observation room (detached from the property) with large windows overlooking fantastic sea views.

Children over 14 years are welcome. Sorry, no infants.

Two well-behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge).

This is an operational lighthouse with an automatic electronic fog signal. During occasional periods of fog and mist, ear plugs are provided for your comfort.

Please note:

Very limited mobile signal. A landline telephone is provided.
