NEW INSTRUCTION!
Tucked away beside a tranquil courtyard only yards from the seafront in the beautiful harbour village of St Mawes, this historic cottage has been totally refurbished by the Owner. Full of character & history, yet with a complete range of modern equipment, this cottage is very conveniently placed, yet in a peaceful location. The large exterior courtyard is a little sun trap and has been specially designed by award winning landscape designers "Mor Design" of Falmouth. It is surfaced with beautiful slate & cobbles and is the most delightful and peaceful place to sit and enjoy.
The cottage was probably originally a fisherman's cottage and is thought to be at least 500 years old and constructed around a similar time to St Mawes Castle. The ground floor beamed ceiling is quite low so taller guests will need to watch their heads! The open plan living area is superbly presented with great use of light colours to bring a lovely warm feeling to the cottage, yet retaining all the character of the building. There is a modern, fully fitted kitchen and a lower area with 2 large comfortable sofas on which to relax. The single bedroom is off the ground floor hallway and benefits from an en-suite shower room. The main double bedroom and large bathroom are at first floor level, making this an ideal large cottage for a couple or perfect for 3.

Ground Floor: Open plan kitchen & sitting room, single bedroom with en-suite shower room.
First Floor: Master double bedroom, large family sized bathroom.

St Mawes is one of the finest waterside villages in Cornwall. Situated overlooking an idyllic bay on the eastern side of the famous Falmouth Estuary, St Mawes has one of the mildest climates in Britain due to its proximity to the Gulf Stream. The sea is at the heart of the village and has helped to shape St Mawes from the little fishing village to the fashionable holiday destination that is so popular with visitors. A mecca for boating enthusiasts, St Mawes is a particularly popular sailing centre. Weekly club racing, village regattas and larger events are commonplace on the superb waters of the bay all through the summer.
St Mawes has so much to offer the visitor. St Mawes Castle was built by Henry VIII and is a splendid place to take in the views of the Carrick Roads. There are miles of coastal and countryside walks to take in and some idyllic beaches on which to relax and watch the world go by. The little Place Ferry takes visitors to explore St Anthony's Head or there are regular ferries to Falmouth. Being situated on the seafront, the village is also known for the restaurants and pubs that serve superb fish and shellfish dishes all year round.| We have just returned from a wonderful stay in Lavinia Cottage, it was wonderful. So good that we would like to book again for next year!! |
