Cornish Cottage Holidays

New for 2010 is this stylish and comfortable residence, close to the waterfront and convenient for the beaches.

Property Description

Delapre Cottage is situated in the beautiful waterside village of Flushing, opposite the busy seaport of Falmouth. Nestled in the heart of the village and within yards of the shoreline, this end of terrace cottage is a stylish and comfortable residence for couples and families. Flushing was a highly desirable place of residence in the eighteenth century and home to many wealthy Packet Ship captains and their families. It continues to retain its appeal to this day with its elegant candy coloured houses that hug the waterfront, observing the colourful vessels that ply the waters, and surrounded by peaceful countryside. Sailing enthusiasts have access to some of the best sailing waters, several sailing schools and waterside pubs and walking enthusiasts are spoilt with peaceful riverside and woodland footpaths. Flushing is reputed to have the mildest climate in the UK, encouraging Spring to arrive early, Autumn to arrive late and flowers to bloom year round. The vibrant year round resort of Falmouth is within a short drive or there is a passenger ferry from nearby Flushing Quay. Falmouth appeals to all tastes and ages with its world class beaches and restaurants, excellent shopping and coastal golf course. The cottage itself is presented to a high standard and the central heating and wood burner ensure it is a cosy retreat for winter breaks. The ground floor consists of a spacious kitchen/diner with a range oven and a newly redecorated sitting room and there is a private enclosed garden to the rear. Upstairs is a comfortable double bedroom, twin bedroom and a newly refurbished bathroom. A pub and the popular Sticky Prawn restaurant are close by and parking can be found in the vicinity.
