What You’ll Love About It
Nestled along this truly unspoilt part of the Cornish coastline, just seven miles from St Austell, this charming, tucked away cottage feels like a well-kept secret, far removed from the hustle and bustle of life.
Step inside to discover a light-filled open plan living area with a cosy wood burning stove to warm by after a day’s playing in the sea. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need and is ideal for rustling up tasty dishes using local produce, offering a hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher and separate under counter fridge and freezer.
A small hallway leads to two bedrooms, one with a king size bed and the other with zip and link twins offering versatility for families or friends. There is also a bathroom with a separate shower and a second WC.
With a tiled entrance hall/utility area perfect for wet dogs after playing on the beach, and an enclosed garden, this is also a dog owner’s delight.
