TwinDolphin Cottage is a cosy mid-terrace former coastguard’s cottage, situated on the edge of the picturesque fishing village of Portloe, with sea views from the terrace. The bijou cottage kitchen has an ornamental Cornish range and blue flagstone floor, whilst the cosy sitting-area has a wood-burner. Enjoy sea views from the double bedroom at the front of the cottage; the twin room is at the back.
The garden at the front is fully enclosed so your dog can enjoy the sea views too. At the rear, a long flight of steep shared steps lead up to a small studio room and terrace with expansive views out to sea.
There is a seldom-used right of way across the front and rear of the cottage (giving neighbouring cottages access). The cottage is reached on foot; there is a public car park 75 yards from the cottage.
Portloe is a stunning location and considered by many to be the jewel in the crown of the Roseland peninsula, this area was once described by John Betjeman as 'one of the least spoiled and most impressive Cornish fishing villages'. Dolphin Cottage is a perfect location for exploring this part of Cornwall, both Carne and Pendower beaches are worth a visit whilst in the area, the picturesque cove of Portholland and the beach and castle at Caerhays are only a short ten minute drive away.
Slightly further afield is the desirable village of St Mawes, home to many restaurants, independent shops, a sandy beach, and its 16th Century castle. Scenic boat trips leave daily from St Mawes to Falmouth and Place Manor on St Anthony headland. Or why not head for the sandy beach and rock pools at Portscatho. There is also a range of wonderful eating places within a few miles, the famous Hidden Hut is located at Porthcurnick beach and would not want to be missed (booking is essential for Feast nights), the Rosevine and Driftwood hotels have outstanding restaurants if you are looking for a night off cooking.
However you wish to spend your holiday, Dolphin Cottage is sure to be the ideal base for your Cornish adventures.
