About this property

Savour their culinary creations over the bottle of fizz at the intimate dining table or step out to the front lawn to indulge in a romantic meal as the sun sets over Cornwall. When the sky darkens, wash away the day in the sleek shower room before sloping off to for a restful sleep in the double bedroom. In the morning venture into the heart of Marazion where you can spend sunny days strolling hand in hand along the expansive golden shores, from here either walk (depending on the tide) or take a boat across the famed St Michael’s Mount where you can enjoy refreshments at the island’s cafe before touring the medieval castle, Norman church and the unique sub-tropical gardens. Head north to explore the other coast in St Ives, home to the fantastic Tate St Ives, stunning beaches where you can take to the water on kayaks, canoes or boats to spot the resident seals. Treat your partner to date night with fresh produce at One Fish Street or Porthminster Kitchen, both serving delicious food and drinks with views across the beautiful harbour.

I arrived by public transport and managed to do all I wanted by foot or bus. The hosts are delightful and on hand should you have questions.

Very clean & tidy on arrival. Loved the cornish cream tea & bubbly that was left for us to settle in with! The cottage had all mod cons, and we were short of nothing of note. Ideal base for touring the south of Cornwall. Will recommend to our friends.
