A little, peaceful coastal community called Downderry can be found in southeast Cornwall. Downderry has a beach, a post office, a store, a deli, a tavern on the cliff top, and a fantastic restaurant that serves top-notch regional cuisine. A family-friendly south facing beach can be found in Seaton, and the adjoining Seaton Valley Countryside Park and Nature Reserve is home to a variety of animals, including otters and kingfishers. At low tide, it is possible to stroll down the beach from Downderry to Seaton. The charming sections of the South West Coast Path in this area of Cornwall lead you to rocky bays, dramatic headlands, and tales of shipwrecks and smugglers.

In Plymouth, which is farther away, there are many things to see and do, including a marine aquarium, a theatre, sizable shopping malls, and the famed Barbican waterfront neighbourhood.

    As stated by one of the reviews the pictures of the inside of the property do it justice but the views as so spectacular you do not notice and also it makes it so much more homely other than worrying about your every more. The welcome pack was also a delightful treat. We loved our stay sooooo much we really didn’t want to leave. Thank you for a perfect holiday.

  • Alison

  • David

    Everything was as we expected based on the details in the property listing. Handy for local restaurants and beach, and lots to do in the area. Property was easy to find and parking space was big, self check-in went well. I would definitely recommend a holiday at Raven Cottage, we had a lovely time.
