The property
Ayr Cottage is situated in Bossiney, tucked along a hedgerow lane and surrounded by its pretty shrub-filled garden.
This lovely detached cottage is on two levels and has 16th cent.
origins and bags of character.
Thick knobbly walls, some door lintels a bit lower than average and beams reflect its history.
Step from the garden into the breakfast room and then through to the well equipped kitchen, which in turn leads you into the dining room - clearly the original part of the cottage, with a huge inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove.
Under an archway there is a small sun room with comfy sofa and lots of games for little ones to occupy themselves.
The living room is surprisingly large, and this too has a big inglenook with a wood-burning stove – a lovely room to sit and relax after a bracing walk, or day on the beach.
At this level there is a large utility room with separate WC and a shower cubicle.
Head upstairs to three bedrooms – two double, one a king-size, and a bunk room with a washbasin, and the family bathroom.
Most of its enclosed walled garden is to the front, with level patio table/chairs, gas BBQ, little summer house and raised patio.
A ten minute walk takes you down to Bossiney Cove, or nip in the car and drive to nearby Trebarwith Strand or Crackington Haven – all lovely family beaches with good food pubs and cafes.
Or visit the legendary harbour of Boscastle and its numerous pubs and cafes.

About the location
BOSSINEY
Port Isaac, one of the undiscovered treasures of Cornwall. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village or on the beach during the times displayed.
