This collection of 17th century stone, semi-detached barn conversions, located in the owners’ grounds, sit in a secluded spot, just yards away from the South West Coastal Path and the picturesque Millendreath Beach, which is close to Looe on Cornwall’s beautiful south coast. Millendreath has a licenced café providing local ales and home-cooked food right on the sand. Just a mile away is another beach at Seaton, with a local pub and beach bar – another great day out for families and couples alike. The resort of Looe is home to famous fish markets which are supplied daily with fresh fish from the day boats that leave the quaint working harbour. Walk the lanes that lead to the harbour and wide expanse of golden sand, buy some fresh seafood for a special meal or visit one of the multitudes of restaurants that the town offers. The coastal path passes close to the property and provides beautiful walks and views along the dramatic coastline. Polperro is a quaint, historic fishing village, just a short distance away from the coast. There are numerous cycle routes around the area and many surfing spots along the coast. Various tourist attractions are nearby, including The Monkey Sanctuary, many National Trust houses and gardens along with golf courses to visit. The Adrenalin Quarry is a must for the adventurous and it is only a short drive away. The Eden Project is also within easy driving distance and it provides an exceptional day out, as does Padstow, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and Fowey, a picturesque seafaring town providing sailing, kayaking and pleasure trips along the River Fowey. Deep sea fishing and other water sports can all be enjoyed in Looe, along with woodland and coastal walks nearby. To the east of the town is the historic city of Plymouth, with its National Marine Aquarium, theatres, cinemas, bowling and shopping, which can be reached from the historic village of Kingsand, right into Barbican, while to the west is Fowey, home to the royal sailing regatta and many galleries, shops and restaurants. Cycling, horse riding, golf and go-karting are all nearby. Each property has an allocated parking space, plus there is parking for a further 3 cars if needed. Shop 1½ miles, pub 1 mile and restaurant 300 yards.
Linhay cottage is on Bodigga Cliff, it's a 1-min walk from the cottage door to stunning scenery on the SW Coastal Path, and a 15-min walk down the Path to Millendreath beach. Dogs aren't allowed on Milendreath beach from 10am to 6pm in the summer, but our dog loved having the run of the huge garden, and scampering along the Coastal Path east to Looe and west to Seaton. From here we day-tripped to Looe, Polperro, and even Newquay and St Ives. The evening sunsets over the fields were beautiful. We ate and drank al fresco to enjoy the splendour. It was so quiet, calm, and gorgeous. We loved every minute. The wifi is great too. I would absolutely recommend this place to families with children, and anyone who likes to see the stars at night! We will be back.
Not luxury but nice traditional cottage in a great location. Not far from the beach but a car is essential to get to the town and anywhere else for that matter as it is quite remote. Great staff Dennis and his business partner only had to resolve 1 issue for us but did it with no fuss at all and were very helpful and friendly
The cottage was comfortable. It was within a mile of a pub but it was a difficult walk in the dark and was not open alot at this time of the year. We enjoyed the break and the owners were helpful.
Our stay August, 2019
