Description
Situated in the heart of the popular seaside harbour town of Port Isaac in Cornwall is Mermaid Cottage, a lovingly restored, three-bedroom fisherman’s cottage.
Ideally furnished and located, for a family holiday or a break amongst friends, this stylish property has it all from contemporary furnishings to toasty woodburning stoves, not to forget the distant views of the harbour.
Step inside to find a snug with a traditional woodburning stove to cosy up in front of after a day of walking, while a sitting room with a sleek stove offers a space to unwind in front of the TV.
From here, make your way to the well-equipped kitchen where you can whip up delicious dinners for your loved ones to enjoy at the dining table for six while catching up over the day’s adventures.
When sleep calls, three neat bedrooms invite you to rest; the master, a king-size, has plenty of storage, while the double and the bunk are home to plush beds, perfect for catching your rest.
In the morning, enjoy your favourite cuppa in the garden, which is enclosed with a picnic bench, making a lovely spot to admire your surroundings.
Just a short walk away, Port Isaac has plenty to keep you entertained including quaint shops selling local produce and gifts, cafes serving Cornish cream teas, and pubs and restaurants serving delicious local seafood.
There are some great walks along the coast, including one to Port Quin, which is home to Doyden Castle, which was used in Poldark and is now owned by the National Trust.
Follow the coast north to Tintagel, where you can explore Tintagel Castle, which is steeped in myth and legend and is famously associated with King Artur and Merlin.
For a charming walk, explore Pencarrow House & Gardens, while a more thrilling day out can be found at Camel Creek Family Theme Park.
Further afield, enjoy the sandy shores of Newquay with a picnic and ice cream at Fistral Beach followed by a fun-filled round at Pirate's Quest Adventure Golf.

What guests are saying
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Mermaid Cottage.
Everything has been done to the highest standard, and it was immaculately clean. The bed was really comfortable and it has a beautiful bathroom and a great shower. We loved the little patio garden and to have parking so close in Port Isaac is a rarity. Gorgeous in every way!
A wonderful stay at Mermaid Cottage was had by all!
Stunning accommodation. The landlords have obviously paid great care and attention to their cottage, where everything is of the highest quality. A few minutes walk down to the harbour where there are two lovely pubs and a couple of wonderful restaurants. Staying at Mermaid cottage was genuinely a real, real treat, and we hope to go back there again. I will be recommending it to everybody! P.S. There is an outdoor seating area at the back of the property which due to being situated on a hill is pretty private. In good weather, it’s the perfect place to eat, relax or read a book whilst enjoying the birds and stunning landscape.
We really enjoyed our time in Cornwall and our stay at the cottage.
Our only negative comment would be that the towel radiator in the bathroom was turned off and locked so towels never dried and the bathroom smells damp/foisty. Maybe a retractable washing line would be helpful as well!
