About this property

Situated in the village centre of Tintagel, on the coast of Cornwall, is this charming property, Gull Cottage. Internally, the owner has created a smart and warming retreat for friends and families looking to escape to the coast and explore the village's rich history. Entering the property, you will be welcomed into a spacious porch which is ideal for those looking to hang their coats, kick off their muddy boots or store their bikes. Relax and unwind in the welcoming sitting room which has two large sofas to cosy up with your loved ones and benefit from the wall-mounted TV with blu ray player for your evening entertainment. Walk through to the open-plan kitchen/diner which has all the necessary appliances for cooking up some delicious meals, whilst also benefitting from a dishwasher and washing machine as some added extras. Choose from a double, twin and bunk room to get some much needed rest for the day's ahead, and enjoy the matching bedside tables and lamps in the master bedroom for some late night reading. Outside has a private and enclosed lawned garden and patio area where you can dine alfresco during the summer months, or light up the barbecue for a summer time treat. Nestled in the bustling village of Tintagel, you are well-placed for accessing a number of delightful eateries, including the King Arthur's Arms Inn which serves traditional pub foods. If you're a keen history lover, then you will not be disappointed with visiting Tintagel Castle, which rests on a clifftop and boasts rugged views of the coast. This castle was said to have been the birthplace of the legendary King Arthur and has a wealth of history to discover inside, whilst also discovering the hidden gem below, Merlin's Cave. Further afield is the popular St Nectan's Glen, a woodland spot which has a scenic waterfall and plenty of trails for those looking to explore the nearby region. Head South along the path and travel one of the most stunning walks of the whole coastal path taking you through 7 valleys to arrive at Port Gaverne or a short hop next door to Port Isaac - please note this walk requires walking boots and is very strenuous and will take 4-5 hours. Moreover, if you happen to be bringing a dog, Trebarwith Strand Beach (Dog friendly) is situated within a couple of miles, with a wonderful establishment by the name of Port WIlliam (Dog friendly pub) overlooking the beach. Gull Cottage is a wonderful retreat for those seeking to explore the Pentire Point coastal region.

Tintagel, home of the legendary King Arthur’s Castle, whose ruins dominate the cliffside just outside the village, is a popular but not overcrowded tourist destination. The surrounding area is dominated by the sea, rocky coves and stunning scenery. Several beaches, including nearby Trebarwith Strand and Bossiney Cove, are within easy reach and surfing is the main attraction for those who love the water. Tintagel has several pubs and restaurants and the Old Post Office (National Trust) is a must. For the energetic, the SW Coast Path passes through the village and in both directions it winds its way along the cliffs and down to the water’s edge through dramatic countryside. Head north along the path and in 2.5 miles is the beautiful village of Boscastle with its quaint quay and village pubs for refreshment. Further afield are the surfing meccas of Newquay and Bude, with their resort attractions, while the open spaces of Bodmin Moor, the Eden Project, Padstow and the Camel Estuary are all within a 40-minute drive. Moreover, if you happen to be bringing a dog, Trebarwith Strand Beach (Dog friendly) is situated within a couple of miles, with a wonderful establishment by the name of Port WIlliam (Dog friendly pub) overlooking the beach.

  • Janine

    Everything we needed for our stay and more. Great value for money and very well located for everywhere we wanted to go to visit.Although very close to the centre of Tintagel (extremely convenient), the cottage itself is very quiet and peaceful. The bed was extremely comfy too!! Would highly recommend

  • Lorraine

    The beds were comfortable and warm as was the large lounge sofas. Matt, the owner, contacted us on route as we were stuck in traffic thus late arriving, to see if we were ok. Would love to return. Thank you.
