Cottage to rent with a log fire / woodburner in Port Isaac (8mls SE)

Accommodation details

A picturesque location enhances the appeal of this already beautiful stone cottage, 8 miles from the cute North Cornwall fishing village of Port Isaac. Perched at the southern end of the impressively stark Bodmin Moor, opportunities for a couple's walking break abound. This cosy nook is a super choice of holiday home for a romantic break.

Cuddle up in front of the welcoming wood burner after a fortifying day out on the moors. With a handy open-plan layout on the ground-floor everything you need is within reach. A comfortable bedroom beckons visitors who have spent the day scaling some of the scattered high places across the moors. Scale Brown Willy, the tallest peak in Cornwall at 420 metres, or the neighbouring Rough Tor.

No modest accomplishment if approached from the west or south, this makes for a great day out. Alternatively, head along the coast to Port Isaac for ocean views, pubs and to spot locations from the TV show Doc Martin. Cycle to Padstow down the Camel Trail, visit Sharpe's Brewery in Rock, go antique book shopping in Wadebridge or surf at Polzeath (all within 17 miles).
