Period luxury 55m fm beach.real fire/free parking/beach/dog friendly/seaviews
There is nothing dreamier then waking up and smelling the sea. The Cottage is the perfect place to relax and unwind in the heart of the village & immerse yourself in Cornish life. The Cottage is third in line to the sea and is reputed to be the oldest house in Downderry dating back to the 18th century. It has many original features including granite fireplace, oak beams & slate flooring. Why not come and enjoy the spacious luxury of country living whilst having the sea on your doorstep. Take a morning dip, paddle along the coast or just grab some rays on one of the two sun terraces with sea views. It is a 2 min walk from the local pub/shop and the beach. Panoramic coastal walks in every direction. It ticks all the boxes

The cottage was impeccable - warm and cosy - everything I had hoped it would be for a family Christmas get away. True to the images and a fab location if you love coastal walks.
Fantastic stay - was let down from a previous place and within 3 days Kerry has helped me book this accommodation.
Lovely and clean, warm and great location.
Kerry was friendly and helpful very much appreciated
Lovely clean property. Stunning view of the sea, from the lovely terrace. Well placed for the beach. The owner Kerry couldn’t have been more helpful. Recommend.
We loved our stay at The Cottage in Downderry, such a lovely period property with lots of character and beautiful sea views from all rooms. only a 2 min stroll to the beach. The garden terrace is such a perfect place to sit and relax looking over the bay. Kerry was a lovely host with great communication, everything was easy and straight forward. The cottage had everything we needed for our family of 6, plenty of room for everyone including our little dog! We had a fabulous time and cannot wait to stay again. Thank you Kerry for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage, highly recommended.
Perfect. It was amazing. We have been holidaying in looe for 25 years. 1st time we have seen new year in down here. Can't believe it has taken this long to do it utterly Perfect. Will be returning.
