Welcome to Erica - just sit back and take in that view.
You can enjoy the view from every room.
The cottage kitchen.
Bedroom 1 is on the lower ground floor with direct access to its own terrace area.
The view is very special.
The little galley kitchen is well stocked.
From the kitchen the large windows open up leading you out to the higher decking area.
A lovely corner in the kitchen to have your morning coffee.
The sitting/dining-room is on the first floor.
Erica is set over four floors to make the most of the view. The open-tread stairs are a little steep and may not be suitable for all.
The dining-area takes pride of place soaking in that view.
The cosy sitting-area with its toasty wood-burning makes this a great retreat all year long.
Bedroom 1 on the lower ground floor has a super-comfy king-size bed.
Steps lead out from bedroom 1 to a utility-area, shower-room and the stairs to the upper floors.
The shower-room is situated on the lower ground floor.
The bed in the second bedroom is adorned with lovely linens, cushions and throw.
The view is framed perfectly in the second bedroom.
The second bedroom has an en suite cloakroom with a hand-basin and WC. Please note there is limited access to one side of the bed.
Erica sits in the heart of the twinned villages of Kingsand and Cawsand.
You are so close to the sea it will send you to sleep at night.
The Old Bakery Cafe is opposite Erica - how convenient is that, you can smell the bread as it's baking!
The old Devon/ Cornwall border sign which used to run between the two villages - there is now a more obvious border - the River Tamar.
The villages have a great choices of places to eat and drink. The Halfway House is only a few yards down the road. On a Wednesday night you might hear the Halfway Harmony singers singing a tune or two.
The villages of Kingsand and Cawsand are utterly charming.
Another pub in the village offering good old traditional hospitality.
At low tide there is a large expanse of beach - your four-legged friends will simply love it.
Watch the comings and goings of the water.

Erica is a lovely cottage in many ways, and in a beautiful situation. The bottom terrace is a stunning place to sit out in the evenings overlooking the sea. It is narrow and steep inside, and it is characterful. Be aware there is a lack privacy in the master bedroom if you forget to shut the curtains! It is not the most comfy holiday cottage, but this could easily be remedied with new mattresses on both beds (one extremely saggy, one hard and lumpy!) Maybe another comfy footstool in the lounge too. Fortunately we had lovely weather so this did not matter as much as it could have done had the weather been poor....

a cosy cottage with wonderful views, good pubs and bakery, in a village(s) with a real community feel
Mr Macfarlane September 2023
The house has fantastic views but is let down by its poor state of repair and many parts of the kitchen do not work. Not really suitable for four adults. We have stayed for many years but this will be are last stay, in need of extensive work to modernise and deal with defects reported to Classic ( roof leak). ...

Excellent location,, clean and comfortable.

What a beautiful little village Cawsand / Kingsand is. Erica is situated on the prettiest little winding and narrow street and the kitchen and lower bedroom doors open directly onto balconies overlooking the sea. Parking at the local carpark and walking up to the property was very easy - we paid on our phones for a week (£18 I think) and then came and went as we wished. The Old Bakery opposite Erica closes for the winter but there is another little coffee shop a minute away at the end of the road where the coffee is great and pastries are delicious. The Halfway House Inn is the nearest pub and the staff and locals there were so friendly. We loved Cawsand / Kingsand and the locals, and we loved staying at Erica. ...
