Charming, detached cottage located in a pretty fishing village

A hop, skip and a jump from the glistening sea in the pretty fishing village of Porthallow. This charming, detached cottage is within easy walking distance of the beach and popular gastro pub, just 400 yards away. Sit in the cove and enjoy the fabulous views across the bay to Falmouth and beyond. Bring your pooch, the cove is dog friendly and, for guests looking to explore the wonderful coast, perfect for kayaking, hiking or rock pooling.

Three steps lead up to the entrance, the hall leads to the comfortable sitting/dining room, where a roaring wood burning stove will warm your cockles following a day by the sea, gather around the dining table and plan the next days’ adventures whilst enjoying a meal prepared in the well-equipped kitchen.
The second sitting-room is also on the ground floor, perfect for the children to park up and watch the television, draw or play a game. Along the corridor you will find the master bedroom, decorated in neutral colours and the king size bed dressed with luxury linens. Just a step up from this room is the family bathroom and, next to that, the large wet-room and access to the steps up to the garden.
Head up the open tread stairs to two further bedrooms both dressed with luxury linens and have sloping ceilings. One is perfect for children, with its low single beds and the second, good for adults with its double bed.

Outside, to the rear of Rutherglen, steps lead up to the lawn, decked terrace and barbecue area; sit and take in the silence as you prepare an alfresco feast whilst the sun sets across the valley.

Slightly disappointed
The village and location is lovely. Unfortunately the well reviewed pub closed down earlier this year, and the bistro and cafe are both closed in October. Should a family have arrived unprepared they would have been unable to source any food or refreshments. A warning of this would have been appreciated. Despite being advertised as having two bathrooms, the house itself has one toilet and one shower room. The shower is powerful, but hot water does not seem to last very long, in particular with four adults in the house.
