Cosy
Lovely property and was very cosy and clean. There was everything you needed in the kitchen to cook a meal. A lovely view from the 1st floor - overlooking the beach and ocean. We had great communication from Caerhays .

Beautiful boathouse
The photos do not do this house or location justice. A well presented house with everything you could possibly need with comfortable beds in the most amazing location next to the beach. What a treat !

A perfect rural getaway
The cottage was in a lovely location right next to the beach and in a very quiet hamlet. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable With great views out to the beach. Really great walks in the coastal footpath from the door plus an easy drive to villages and Cornwall sites.

An atmospheric property
An amazing Boathouse with views to die for and a beautiful beach. The atmosphere was brilliant with the weather playing its part with a stormy overlay but you can hear it all in a beautiful property
