      Old Fisherman's Cottage with Sun Deck Offering Sea Views of St Mawes Harbour

      Fisherman's Cottage is a charming property just a stone's throw from the sea in the oldest part of St Mawes village. The perfect place to relax and enjoy all the stunning Roseland Peninsula and picturesque St Mawes has to offer.

      What's great about Fisherman's Cottage is that its a really cosy, homely environment, tucked away on a quiet street; yet its practically bang in the middle of the lively seaside village of St Mawes, with beaches, pubs and restaurants just a couple of minutes walk away.

      The cottage, along with the others in the same street, was built in the 1700s to accommodate local fishermen. We renovated the cottage in 2013, creating a warm, comfortable modern interior, whilst retaining its original character and features.

      The front stable door opens on to a large bright sitting room area with loads of sofa space and a lovely log fire. There is a TV, Blu-ray player and Amazon Fire box tucked discretely away in the corner cupboard - just in case you're unlucky with the weather, or just fancy a bit of lounging!

      Music lovers are also well catered for with a new 120W Panasonic Hi-Fi with Bluetooth, DAB and CD.

      To the rear of the sitting room is a kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is new and well equipped. There is slimline dishwasher, fan oven, induction hobs, toaster, kettle, filter coffee machine and microwave.

      Through the kitchen is a small utility area with the washer/dryer which opens to the sun deck at the rear of the cottage and a downstairs loo.

      The sun deck is really the jewel of the cottage's crown. There's a great view of the harbour and sea beyond, a table for some al fresco dining and a BBQ for those lazy summer evenings.

      Upstairs, the large double bedroom is a decent size, with plenty of storage space. There is also a more compact double room - the bed here is only accessible on one side - and a twin bunk room at the rear of the cottage.

      The bathroom is bright and fresh and has a bath with a shower over.

      WiFi is provided. We now have BT Infinity installed, so you can expect download speeds of 40Mb - more than enough for HD streaming and multiple users.

      Cordless phone with caller display/answerphone for incoming calls.

      The back of Fisherman's Cottage has a fantastic decked area, where you can relax with a glass of wine, watching (but not hearing) the hustle and bustle down on the harbour below, and boats further out to sea. The path out to the street at the rear of the cottage also presents excellent opportunities to sneak out to The Rising Sun pub or Idle Rocks Hotel, both just 50 meters from the back gate!

      Lovely June break
      The cottage was wonderful - well equipped and comfortable. We loved being able to cook together and the sun deck was fabulous. Parking was a bit tricky but it did not spoil the holiday. Wonderful location and weather - brilliant holiday. Thank you Danny.

      Lovely stay
      We enjoyed our stay, the only complaint was the main bedroom bed was very small but this is personal taste rather than a failing on the cottage.

      Lovely cottage.
      Right in the centre of the village. It was so lovely to be able to walk to the harbour and beach within minutes. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfy with lots of space for a small family.
