“Location is important, and this cottage is beautifully placed in the heart of Port Isaac.”

Several of the rooms have superb views of the village and cove and even some glimpses of sea. There is efficient central heating (very necessary in October, when we were there) and all the equipment you could ever need, including an excellent collection of games and books for days when you look out of the window and decide not to bother even trying to go out. The owners have put helpful labels with instructions and advice on almost everything from the front door to the cooker. ...

Several of the rooms have superb views of the village and cove and even some glimpses of sea. There is efficient central heating (very necessary in October, when we were there) and all the equipment you could ever need, including an excellent collection of games and books for days when you look out of the window and decide not to bother even trying to go out. The owners have put helpful labels with instructions and advice on almost everything from the front door to the cooker. The house is on three floors and the top set of stairs (to two bedrooms) are rather steep, but this is nothing compared to the challenge of parking. On the website, there looks to be a wide, tarmacked drive, and indeed this is true. What is difficult to convey from a photograph is the extreme gradient of just about everything in the village - it is built on a cliff, literally. Fore Street itself is a narrow lane between stone walls (one way, uphill), with a gradient of about 1 in 5. The entrance to the driveway is about a car's width, so a tight turn, and the drive has a gradient of 1 in 3 (I measured it... sad, I know!). So bring a small car, with good brakes, and prepare to practice extreme hill starts. Or plan to spend your holiday in the village - not a bad idea at all! All this said, Port Isaac is exactly as lovely as you imagine (though I might think twice about visiting in high season - I'm sure it gets uncomfortably busy), and this comfortable, well-equipped cottage is in a brilliant location, almost on the Coast Path. We had a great time.
Mr Birchanall August 2019

“Excellent position within Port Isaac.”

All the basic needs are catered for along with a washing machine, dryer etc. The beds were uncomfortable and I think these are cheap mattresses so we didn't get a particularly good nights sleep but otherwise all good.
Mr Shooter August 2019

“Home was clean and well maintained.”

Some parts of the house were a little dated but if you were looking for "charm" then you would be pleased. Driveway is very steep so less confident drivers may need to consider this but overall the description is an accurate representation of the property.
Mrs Robertson July 2019

“Great house, lovely location and the house was extremely well equipped especially with things for our 2 year old, including high chair and monitors.”

The owners seem to have thought of everything. An enjoyable week for all.
Mr Aitcheson June 2019

“Perhaps when advertising you need to state that guests are required to bring their own towels with the EXCEPTION of overseas guests.”

I sent a message asking if it was possible to have towels. I never received a reply & brought towels with us only to find they were supplied. Quite frustrating when you have travelled from Australia.. certainly didn’t need the extra weight. A hair dryer would have been very welcome. Other than that we had a great week despite the weather. Our second visit to Port Isaac the last being 6 years ago
Miss Starkey June 2019

“Very pleased with the cottage, location is excellent, comfortable, clean and well equipped.”

The driveway is very steep, one of our cars could not cope with the gradient so had to swap for the car that we had already paid for the weeks parking in the car park for. So that was a little inconvenient other than that it suited us very well and would definitely book again. Phone call from the owner to check all was well was a nice touch.

“We had a fantastic week in Edgehill Port Issac ,perfect in every way for us.”
Mr Griffiths May 2019

“The location of the property was ideal was blessed with its own car parking space.”
Mr Morgan April 2019

“Generally,a lovely cottage and we enjoyed the week immensely.”

The lack of towels,though,disappointment.
Ms Morris April 2019

“Lovely cottage would certainly recommend it, nice touch owner ringing on first night to make sure everything was ok”
Mr Willcocks April 2019

“We enjoyed our stay in Port Isaac.”

The key safe is quite stiff so might be worth a look at. If towels were included, that would have made the holiday a little easier as it would have been less to pack in the car.
Mrs White March 2019

“Excellent position to enjoy Port Isaac close to shops, restaurants and local pub.”

Easy access to local coastal walks. House had everything and more that you would need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Mr White November 2018

“Lovely cottage great location to port isaac, very comfortable and clean.”
Mrs Lawton September 2018

“This cottage has a great location.”

We loved it. If you are looking for high end, then this is not for you, but this is reflected in the price. We stayed 4 nights and unwound and thoroughly enjoyed the cottage. My only criticism would be that the main bedroom is big enough for a king size bed, so why not put one in? We struggled with the tiny double.
Mr Playle June 2018

“The only downside to our stay was the the building works going on in the adjoining property - disturbed early every weekday!”
Mr Clark June 2018

“Easy access into the village and a bonus having a parking space.”

A wide choice of restaurants and a well stocked Co - op within walking distance.Do watch out for the seagulls !

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6 miles; Padstow 9 miles

Port Isaac, one of the undiscovered treasures of Cornwall. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village or on the beach during the times displayed.

Note: Please note this property does not provide towels.

During October the neighbouring property will have scaffold erected at the bottom of the garden.The area will be screened of and 2/3rds of the garden will still be accessible.
