Self catering at Fintamara Downderry in Cornwall
Key details
More about Fintamara
With direct access to the beach via a flight of cliff steps and uninterrupted sea views towards Looe Island and beyond, this south facing, detached and double glazed garden flat, offers a peaceful haven for couples set in the owner's attractive garden.
Approached by an external flight of walled steps, which lead down from the private roof-top parking area and a shared outer lobby, the light and airy self contained accommodation is fronted by a delightful wooden deck which is rewarded with spectacular sunsets. A couple of steps lead up to the glazed front door opening to a smartly fitted galley kitchen with stripped pine flooring and panoramic sea views from a picture window.
There is a small built-in breakfast bar with high stools, a useful hanging cupboard, and a comfortable sitting area in a sunny décor with a corner settee and a large mirror to reflect the glorious views. To one side, a door leads off to a bright double bedroom with hand basin, an en-suite shower room W.C. and a glazed door opening to the sheltered sundeck.
The patio door makes it possible to enjoy the view without getting out of bed and there is also a unique cliff top bench seat where you can watch the local fisherman pulling in their lobster pots below. A path leads down through the owners landscaped garden and orchard to a series of private railed steps (62 in all) down to the large south facing beach and foreshore.
Seaton has a local shop, seasonal beach café and pub, and Downderry with a coffee shop, village store, restaurant and pub are both 500 yards respectively and a 5 minute walk either by road or beach. The picturesque harbour town of Looe is 7 miles away with pleasure boat and fishing trips departing from the quayside and a railway station. The South West Coast Path and the Seaton Valley Countryside Park offer lovely walks, there are several golf courses nearby, and diving is available locally.
Please note: Towels are available at £3 per person per week to be paid on arrival.Â
