Nestled down a serene farm track and surrounded by National Trust farmland, the cottage boasts stunning sea views and is just a five-minute walk from the historic town of Tintagel. Visitors can easily access the renowned South West Coastal Path, offering some of the most breathtaking walks in the country. The property features ample parking for four vehicles, making it perfect for large gatherings, and provides panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean from many rooms.

The conservatory, overlooking the enclosed garden, provides a stunning ocean view, allowing families to keep an eye on children playing outside while enjoying the comfort of the indoors.
The cottage's garden has been recently fenced to ensure safety for pets, featuring a charming wooden picket fence at the front and discreet mesh wire along the borders. Accommodations include a ground-floor king-size bedroom with zip and link beds and an en-suite shower room, making it accessible for guests with mobility issues.

The owners have prioritized comfort, using high-quality mattresses and luxurious Egyptian Cotton linens, ensuring a restful stay for all guests.
Tintagel itself is rich in history, famously linked to the legend of King Arthur, with Tintagel Castle just a short stroll from the cottage. Visitors can explore the castle via a newly constructed footbridge that offers stunning views. Nearby, Merlin's Cave adds to the area's allure, while the village features various shops, pubs, and eateries within walking distance. Sandy beaches like Trebarwith Strand and Bossiney Cave are perfect for swimming and surfing, and the coastal path leads to picturesque locations such as Boscastle and Port Isaac.
