Self catering at Cove Cottage St Mawes in Cornwall

Key details

More about Cove Cottage

A delightful terraced cottage set back from the Idle Rocks Hotel and just 50 yards from the sea in the attractive harbourside village of St Mawes, with inverted accommodation to fully appreciate the glorious views across the Fal Estuary as far as Pendennis Point.

Approached by a shared driveway where there are reserved parking spaces, half a dozen railed steps lead down to a courtyard and the front door, which opens to a spacious ground floor hallway. Leading off the hallway is a light and attractive kingsize bedroom with an en-suite shower room W.C. with hand basin and a glazed door with two steps down to a lovely railed sun terrace where you can absorb all the sounds of the boats entering the harbour and the birdlife circling overhead.

A short flight of stairs leads up to a clean and crisp bedroom with full size 3ft bunk beds and a bathroom W.C. with hand basin and a half size bath tub. From the hall a carpeted staircase winds up to a bright and sunny gallery style living room with an electric flicker flame fire with slate hearth. There are superb panoramic and stunning views of the sea, estuary and harbour from both the full length french door and other windows. Off to one side, a couple of steps lead up to a large, recently refurbished and well equipped fitted kitchen which enjoys the same superb views of the sea.

There is a good collection of pubs and restaurants plus local shops all within a few minutes walk down a short fairly steep hill, as is a selection of small south facing beaches with a sailing club. A regular passenger ferry service operates to Falmouth, and another which crosses the Percuil River to St Anthony runs in the summer months. The 15th Century St Mawes Castle standing in a sub tropical garden is close at hand and there are also lovely waterside paths following the banks of the estuary which eventually reach the picturesque church at St Just in Roseland.
