With its beachfront location and nautical décor, Beachcomber's Cottage at Whitsand Bay certainly lives up to its name. This one bedroom beach retreat is one of two semi-detached Eddystone Cottages overlooking the beach with breathtaking sea views. Comfort is the watchword in this compact hideaway with memory foam mattresses, air-conditioning, compact kitchen, comfy sofa and cosy fire to ensure an enjoyable stay. Roadside parking and access is via a cliff path with many steps and a winch for luggage.
The private deck is the place to relax with a cup of tea or a glass of wine and listen to the waves on the beach. You can even catch your own dinner with a few fishing tips from the helpful owner, a record-breaking British ocean rower.
Beachcomber's Cottage overlooks Tregonhawke Beach, part of sandy Whitsand Bay near Millbrook. Enjoy swimming, kite surfing, kayaking and fishing from the beach or head to Whitsand Bay Holiday Park nearby and make use of their heated pool, café and bar. Explore coastal villages on clifftop walks and browse for souvenirs at nearby Kingsand and Cawsand. Mount Edgcumbe is a historic home and country park worth visiting and from there the Cremyll passenger ferry (or Torpoint car ferry) take you across the Tamar estuary to Plymouth in minutes.
