A harbourside four bedroom cottage with breathtaking views

Gull Cottage is an idyllic place to stay - a traditional and beautiful Grade II listed Cornish cottage occupying one of the most iconic locations in the area. It sits near the end of a small row of old Boscastle Harbour Cottages directly overlooking Boscastle's beautiful and historic harbour.

Situated on the south-facing side of the harbour the cottage is easily recognised by its distinctive boat-seat attached to the front of the house. The cottage's terrace is carved into the side of the harbour and is the perfect place to sit and relax, eat a meal or simply watch the sun go down.

Built around the end of the 1700s, Gull Cottage is in a very special area. It sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, a Special Area of Conservation and is in a designated conservation area. Nature and beauty is all around. The village is a short walk where there are cosy pubs, restaurants and coffee shops.

Downstairs is a comfortable lounge and a dining room with a good sized table - both rooms have a log-burning stove. There is also a kitchen and large, modern shower room.

Upstairs has a bathroom and four bedrooms: two doubles, a twin and one with bunk beds.

There are two parking spaces, one immediately outside the property and one to the rear in a car port - while this fits a family car, manoeuvring is a little tight!

The cottage is on the South West Coastal Path. From outside the cottage you can walk along the coast south to Tintagel, north to Pentagon Waterfall or walk the wooded path that follows the River Valency up and out of the valley.
During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Enjoy features like laundry facilities. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the cottage.
