Port Isaac Cottages
As you listen to Friday evening's rousing shanties of the
Fishermen's Friends, you'll be so pleased you chose a Port
Isaac cottage for this year's holiday. In fact, they might be
your main reason for coming here, a ten-strong line-up of pals,
known far and wide for their joyful renditions of popular folk
songs. Or will it be the setting that attracts you, the village
that's become famous as the backdrop for the comedy capers of
Martin Clunes in Doc Martin? One thing's for certain, Port
Isaac is truly delightful.
Explore Port Isaac & Cornwall from a Sykes cottage
Explore Port Isaac's hidden backwaters, a warren of twisting
lanes or 'drangs' crammed with old, whitewashed cottages -
look out for 'Squeeze Belly Alley', thought to be the
world's narrowest street and once the retreat for contraband.
Linger at the harbour and watch local fishermen land their daily
catch. Enjoy a scenic cruise along north Cornwall's rugged
coast. Stride out along the coastal path. Surf amazing rollers at
Polzeath, four miles away. If
you've booked a pet friendly Port Isaac cottage, next door to
Polzeath is Daymer Bay - fantastic for families and romps with
'Scamp' on a huge expanse of sand. Rent a bike and cycle
the Camel Trail. Play golf at St. Enodoc. At mealtimes, check out
Port Isaac's restaurants and pubs or grill fish over coals in
your garden.
If you're planning a trip to the south west and not sure
where to stay, somewhere quintessentially Cornish, with atmosphere,
scenery and more, our Port Isaac cottages will bowl you over!
