Occupying a spot in the picturesque hamlet of Lansallos Barton, near Looe in Cornwall, this charming semi-detached farmhouse offers stunning sea views and comfortable accommodations for up to six guests. Ideal for families or groups of friends, the property features three well-appointed bedrooms, with two of them boasting the same breathtaking views as the sitting and dining areas. Guests can enjoy outdoor living with BBQ facilities and picnic benches positioned to take full advantage of the scenic surroundings, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a day of coastal exploration.
The farmhouse consists of Lansallos West House and the adjoining Lansallos Old House, both of which have been thoughtfully converted into holiday cottages. With an enclosed garden that overlooks the sea, visitors can relax and soak in the sunset after a day spent at nearby Lansallos Cove. The property is pet-friendly, allowing up to two dogs to accompany their owners on this delightful retreat, ensuring that no family member is left behind during the holiday.
Access to Lansallos Cove is just a short walk away, leading guests through a captivating tree-lined sunken lane that once served as a cart track for fishermen and smugglers. This route connects to the South West Coast Path, which offers an extensive network of walking trails ideal for both avid hikers and wildlife enthusiasts. The largely unspoilt coastline features breathtaking landscapes, with opportunities to explore the beautiful bays of Lantivet and Lantic to the west, and the charming Talland Bay to the east, known for its smuggling history.
In addition to the natural beauty surrounding the cottage, visitors can explore the quaint fishing village of Polperro and the bustling harbor town of Looe, both of which are nearby. A short journey west leads to the dramatic headland at Pencarrow and the village of Polruan, where guests can take a scenic ferry ride across to the lively town of Fowey. This holiday retreat not only offers a comfortable and scenic base but also serves as a gateway to the rich history and stunning landscapes of the South West Coast of England.
