Welcome to Corner Cottage, a charming seaside retreat which is part of a historic terrace of old fisherman’s cottages on the north side of Portmellon Cove. This enchanting cottage, built right into the rugged coastal rocks, offers an unrivalled location with breathtaking, commanding views of the sea.
Corner Cottage features three bedrooms, ideal for a family or a group of friends seeking a seaside escape. The master bedroom boasts stunning sea views, perfect for waking up to the soothing sounds of the waves. The additional bedrooms, equally inviting, provide ample space and comfort. With two modern bathrooms, morning routines and evening wind-downs are convenient and enjoyable. The heart of the cottage is the spacious kitchen/dining room, fully equipped for all your needs. Whether you’re preparing a hearty breakfast or dinner, this space is both functional and welcoming. Adjacent to the kitchen is the living room, complete with a wood burner. This spot is perfect for relaxing evenings, where you can unwind with a good book or enjoy a glass of wine by the fire.
Outside, the magic of Corner Cottage truly comes to life. At high tide, adventurous guests can swim from the rocks in front of the cottage into the deep, clear waters. A moment away is a sandy beach to enjoy. However, please note that due to its unique position, Corner Cottage is not suitable for young children, the cottage’s direct access to the rocks makes it less suitable for families with adventurous toddlers, ensuring a stress-free holiday for all.
You have your own private terrace, please be aware that the lower terrace is shared with the adjacent Mermaid Cottage (UK47403), which can also be booked for larger groups. Corner Cottage offers a perfect blend of character, comfort, and coastal charm.
