Description

With spectacular panoramic sea views along the coast of Cornwall Virginia Cottage is the perfect destination for a small group or family.

Just a hop, skip and a jump from the sea, inside this sweet former fisherman's cottage you'll find comfortable furnishings and heaps of traditional character.

The living room/diner, boasts stunning views and a classic woodburning stove, perfect for warming your toes after a day walking the cliff path.

Take in the ocean vista whilst enjoying a home-cooked meal prepared in the galley style kitchen.

On the first floor are two restful bedrooms; at the front, a spacious king-size room where you can wake to the sights and sounds of the sea.

At the rear, a twin room overlooks the garden and has books and games for children.

Two bathrooms (one on the ground floor) mean that everyone has their own facilities.

Dine alfresco in the enclosed lawned garden and enjoy a BBQ whilst the sun sets.

This peaceful cottage lies in the charming village of Portwrinkle, at the western end of Whitsand Bay.

Home to two sandy beaches and a small sheltered harbour it is a true hidden Cornish gem.

Spend a day on the beach, exploring the many rock pools or try your luck at riding the waves.

Nearby the pretty twin villages of Kingsand and Cawsand offer plenty of quaint shops and opportunities for eating out beside the sea.

Plymouth is a short trip by ferry, here you'll find shops, bars, restaurants, museums, and lots of attractions.

With so much to see and do nearby, Virginia Cottage is a perfect Cornish getaway in a truly exceptional location.

Excellent location nice fisherman cottage so lovely to wake up to sound of sea and lovely short walk to harbour.

Comfortable bed in front room and view of sea an extra bonus ! Armchairs in lounge uncomfortable and sagging Unfortunately general cleaning not great,frying pan and grillpan dirty also some cutlery Cupboards in kitchen could do with cleaning inside sounds a bit pickey but not nice to see .

If you want peace and quiet (the only sound being the waves) with stunning views, this is the place.

2nd time staying here and would definitely stay a 3rd. Well equipped kitchen, cosy living/dining space and super comfy bed. We didn’t get the weather unfortunately and it rained 5 of the 7 days but that can’t be helped. Would definitely recommend

Great cottage.

Best location ever for a seaside holiday - right beside the sea! Cottage is extremely well-equipped and comfortable. Lovely addition of scones, cream and jam, plus 2 pints milk as a welcome pack. Able to park outside the cottage every day using the parking permits provided. 5 minutes to the beach and local restaurant/cafe. 15 minutes to fish & chip shop and pasties. Very quiet - all you can hear is the sea.
