Millbrook 2.3 miles. Positioned on the coastal path on Freathy Cliff in Cornwall, near a beach, is this attractive cottage, The Old Tea Hut. This single storey property enjoys splendid sea views from its elevated position and is just a short drive away from amenities, ideal for a family or six friends. A path from the road will lead you to your holiday home, where you will discover a front garden, perfect for enjoying a cup of tea in the morning sunshine. Step inside and locate the living/dining room, bright and airy with its bright walls; here you can curl up on the sofa with a good book and tuck into meals at the dining table. The kitchen is certain to entice budding chefs with stunning views over the coast and typical kitchen appliances, and after a day lounging on the beach, make use of the external utility to wash and dry your clothes. Snuggle up for a family favourite on the TV and when the evening draws to a close, a contemporary shower room awaits for a hot rinse. Choose between three charming bedrooms to rest your head, with two doubles, one with a feature fireplace, and a bunk bedroom, ideal for the younger ones. Awaken with a hearty breakfast and enjoy a fresh coffee as you plan for the exciting day ahead. Just moments away from the cottage is a 4 mile stretch of sandy beach at low tide, here you can surf the waves or simply sprawl on the sand to bask in the sun; be sure to dine at the clifftop café to savour the coastal sights. History buffs will be thrilled with the nearby landmarks, with the 19th century to Tregantle Fort, where you can roam the gardens and the Grade I Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park to marvel at the grand estate. For cobbled streets and a bustling atmosphere, venture into the city of Plymouth, home to the National Marine Aquarium for those who love sea creatures, The Mayflower Museum to unveil sea history and the vibrant West Hoe Park for a quaint picnic. For a much needed break to Cornwall, choose The Old Tea Hut

Set in a bowl of hills at the head of a tidal creek that leads to the Hamoaze, opposite the great naval city of Plymouth, Millbrook is located on the Rame Peninsula, "Cornwall's Forgotten Corner". Bounded by the Lynher and Tamar rivers, the Hamoaze and the sea, the area is deeply rural and designated as one of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has a good range of shops and pubs, while close by are the pretty coastal villages of Kingsand and Cawsand, from which a ferry will take you to Plymouth. Along the southern edges of the peninsula are miles of beautiful walks with glorious views of Rame Head. Just a mile south of Millbrook lies Whitsand Bay with its miles of uncrowded sandy rnli patrolled beach and dramatic cliffs. A superb base for discovering the wild side of Cornwall.
