Beachcomber's Cottage is a charming ground floor apartment located in Torpoint, Cornwall, ideally suited for couples seeking a romantic getaway. Nestled at the foot of the Tregonhawke Cliffs and just one mile from Whitsand Bay, this former fisherman's cottage accommodates two guests in its cozy double bedroom. The apartment features a family shower room, a well-equipped kitchen, and a comfortable sitting room with a dining area, providing all the essentials for a relaxing stay. Outside, guests can enjoy roadside parking on the clifftop and a decking area with benches, perfect for taking in the stunning coastal views.
This picturesque retreat is pet-friendly, allowing two well-behaved dogs to join their owners on holiday. However, it is important to note that children must be supervised due to the proximity of the open beach and steep cliff paths. Access to the property involves navigating a steep and uneven cliff path with approximately 160 steps, which may pose challenges for those with limited mobility. For added convenience, a winch is available for luggage assistance during the peak season, from May 1st to September 30th.
