Self catering accommodation in Madron sleeps 4.
Accommodation overview: A traditional listed Cornish cottage with glimpses of the sea and St Michaels Mount from upstairs, set in a pretty little walled and gated front garden close to the 14th century Parish Church at Madron, a few minutes drive from the attractive town of Penzance.
A low stable door opens under heavy blooms of wisteria in summer, directly into a charming beamed living room which spans the whole width of the cottage, with a massive open granite hearth at one end. At the rear of the cottage is a well equipped neat kitchen with some fitted units, and a bathroom W.C. with hand basin and bath with shower attachment. A glazed back door opens to a private and sunny garden fully enclosed which can be seen from the kitchen window.
In one corner of the sitting room, cottage stairs twist up to two appealing pleasantly furnished bedrooms with double and twin beds respectively. Both are carpeted and have low windows set into thick walls with window seats and a distant view between the rooftops below of the glinting waters of Mounts Bay. Steep stairs make this property unsuitable for toddlers and the elderly may also have difficulty.
Madron has a village pub which serves food. Penzance and Mounts Bay with extensive shops and beaches are under 10 minutes drive and the Isles of Scilly are easily accessible via the ferry service. It is possible to park on the road outside the cottage and there is a free village car park 75 yards away.

With parts of the property dating back to the 1600’s, the comfortable accommodation now furnished to a high standard with double glazing and central heating, still retains character with exposed beams, several changes in level and low doorways, hence the name ‘Duck Down’!

To one side, there is a warm and cosy beamed sitting room with lounge seating facing a wood burning stove set on the slate hearth.
A couple of steps continue down to a 2nd lounge/play room with a beamed ceiling and a sofa bed for alternative sleeping arrangements. At the rear, one step leads directly into a well equipped, farmhouse-style kitchen/dining room with slate flagstones, oak fitted units and dining suite and views of the garden and coastline beyond.
Carpeted stairs lead up from the hall to the first floor landing, three cottage style bedrooms, and a family bathroom W.C. with hand basin, corner bath and additional shower cubicle. There is a bunk bedded room with fine views towards the cliffs and sea, one step continues up to a twin bedroom with 3ft zip linked beds, and a doorway leads into the master bedroom with a 5ft king-sized bed and en-suite shower room W.C. with hand basin.
A door from the kitchen opens to the enclosed rear garden with a raised slate terrace and a couple of steps continue down to a small lawn and patio; there is also a shed available for storage of beachgear and a gate to the driveway.
The property is set in Treven, one of the seven parishes of Tintagel where there is a good selection of local shops, restaurants, museums and pubs all within easy walking distance as well as the dramatic coastal footpath and Tintagel Castle itself. Trebarwith, 1.5 miles, has a large area of sand and rocks revealed at low tide, and the picturesque harbour village of Boscastle is a 10 minute drive.
Bodmin Moor, the beaches on the Camel Estuary and The Camel Trail are within easy reach, whilst the larger towns of Bude, Camelford, Wadebridge, Bodmin and Launceston are all within a half hour car journey offering a wider range of facilities.
