In the sleepy village of Bohortha, located high on a ridge on the St Anthony Headland lies the sleepy hamlet of Bohortha. Made up of a cluster of cottages & a farm, this is the perfect place to escape from reality and enjoy the true beauty of the idyllic Roseland Peninsula. Mizpah is located at the end of a row of fisherman's cottages accessed by a short footpath from where the road runs out. Enjoy glimpses of the sea in distant views from the first floor bedrooms, step out of your door onto stunning walks or escape with the kids to the remote beach at Porthbeor.

This is a traditional Cornish cottage which has been quietly upgraded by its loving Owners. It is full of character with a wonderful dining room boasting a lovely old cast iron range with brass fittings and a bread oven (sadly not in use!) and a flagstone floor. The cosy fireplace and electric central heating will keep you warm during the wild winter evenings and the lovely garden has plenty of space to enjoy during the summer.

Accommodation
Ground Floor: Lounge with open fireplace, dining room, newly fitted kitchen, external WC with electric shower.
First Floor: Master double bedroom with distant views, twin room, very small box room with a bunk bed (only suitable for young children) and a family bathroom.
External: Large grassed garden. There is a further lawn garden beyond with views to the sea. Teak garden table and chairs are provided together with a BBQ.

Facilities & Services
Heating is via electric central heating and the open fire (coal only please) in the lounge. The lounge has a flat screen recording TV plus a DVD / CD player. The kitchen was newly fitted in the Autumn of 2009 and includes a lovely limestone floor, fully fitted units, double electric cooker, microwave, fridge / freezer, dishwasher & washing machine. There is a telephone available for emergency & incoming calls.

Miscellaneous
Electricity, bed linen & towels are all included, but you will need to provide your own beach towels. Access to Mizpah is via the gardens of the adjoining property or a path to the rear. Parking is on the lane approx 50m from cottage. There is a trolley available for transporting luggage. Up to 2 well behaved dogs are welcome at a small additional charge. We regret no smoking is permitted. There is a cot available upon request.

Arrival / Departure is on a Saturday. There are discounts available for a couple only booking at certain times. Short breaks are available at certain times.

The villages of Portscatho & Gerrans are a short drive away to the north. Portscatho has a great local convenience store, post office, pub & restaurant. There is another pub in Gerrans. There is a great choice of pubs & restaurants around the Roseland. The nearest beach, Portbeor is only a short walk away from Bohortha and then down a footpath with steps. The St Anthony Headland walks can be taken straight from the cottage. You can also walk to the Place Ferry landing stage where during the day you can catch the boat to St Mawes. In the evenings, there is a water taxi available (booking essential).
