Self catering accommodation in Polperro sleeps 3.
Accommodation overview: With superb harbour and coastline views from the garden, this grade II listed traditional terraced cottage with accommodation on three floors is tucked into a traffic free area known as The Warren lying in the heart of the picturesque fishing village of Polperro.
Set to one side of a narrow lane that forms part of the South West Coast Path, this quaint cottage benefits from its own unique sun terrace and summerhouse and retains great charm and character with low beamed ceilings and doorways.
Sharing an outer front door and lobby, the inner glazed door opens directly into a rustic beamed kitchen/diner with a bespoke galley kitchen, pine dining suite with a glimpse of the harbour and at the rear, a compact shower room W.C. with hand basin.
A rather steep and narrow rope railed stairway leads up to a cosy sitting room on the first floor with a board and beam ceiling, comfortable lounge seating including a sofa bed, an electric log effect fire and the sound of the sea filling the window. There is also a stable door opening out to a railed flight of ten steps that lead down to the pedestrian lane from which the cottage takes its name and offers an alternative, slightly easier access to the property.
A further steep staircase continues up to the second floor and two cottage style bedrooms; the master bedroom with a 4ft double enjoying a bird’s eye view overlooking the working fishing harbour and a small single bedroom at the rear with trundle bed. There are electric convector heaters in both bedrooms.
From the latter, a low door gives access to the rear hillside garden with nine steps that lead up to a sheltered paved patio and a further nine steps continue up to a south facing wooden sun deck with summerhouse and glorious views over the harbour, rugged cliffs and far out to sea. Young children and pets will require supervision outside.
There is one reserved parking space in the main village car park just under half a mile away and approximately a 10 minute walk - there is no vehicle access to the property however a luggage taxi service is available.
The many cafes, restaurants, pubs, galleries and local shops are close at hand as is the Heritage Museum of Smuggling and Fishing. Seasonal pleasure boat trips depart from the harbour, and the coastal footpath offers fine walks eastwards to Talland Bay & Looe, and westbound to Lansallos & Polruan.

The newly renovated Harbour Loft is literally a stone’s throw away from the waters edge and boasts arguably the best uninterrupted panoramic views of this exquisite bustling harbour and Cornish coastline.
Beneath Harbour Loft is the newly opened Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen, TV chef Nathan Outlaw’s most recent restaurant venture open for lunch & dinner serving a variety of small seafood dishes in a relaxed seaside setting - www.outlaws.co.uk/fishkitchen

At the far end of the hallway, a low doorway leads into a quaint living room that spans the width of the cottage enjoying panoramic views of the tiny harbour with its fishing boats and the dramatic coastline.
With the sound and sight of the sea close by and the sloping floors and ceilings you could almost believe you were on the deck of a galleon ship! On one side, a step leads down to a part fitted bespoke kitchen with painted wooden floorboards and a small dining suite set next to the window making the most of its harbour side location. On the opposite side, comfortable lounge seating overlooks the ever changing scenery and an ideal vantage point to watch the St Breward Silver Band and the famous Fisherman Friends perform on the quayside in summer evenings.
It is possible to unload outside Harbour Loft and parking is in the car park at the top of the village. On your doorstep, there is a choice of fish and chips, Cornish pasties, fishmongers and afternoon cream teas with freshly baked cakes.
