    “Great location but our comfort was spoiled by poorly maintained sash windows.”

    In short, all repeat all, of the sash windows in the bedrooms and the lounge need to be made significantly more draught proof. In a very exposed position, the house gets the full brunt of the Atlantic weather and, in winter, high cold winds are a near constant. The sash windows in both bedrooms and the lounge have huge gaps through which the wind howls and makes these rooms uncomfortable. The meeting bars and vertical stiles fit badly and do not have draught brushes fitted. The wedges fitted ...

    In short, all repeat all, of the sash windows in the bedrooms and the lounge need to be made significantly more draught proof. In a very exposed position, the house gets the full brunt of the Atlantic weather and, in winter, high cold winds are a near constant. The sash windows in both bedrooms and the lounge have huge gaps through which the wind howls and makes these rooms uncomfortable. The meeting bars and vertical stiles fit badly and do not have draught brushes fitted. The wedges fitted to these windows may stop the sashes rattling but they do absolutely nothing to reduce the draughts. It proved impossible to maintain a comfortable temperature in the lounge without the log burner and so we were forced to spend £60 on logs.

The property

Surrounded by endless fields and hedgerows, this two-bedroom cottage is tucked away in its own little world, and offers stunning views over the Nanjizal Cove. Sun-kissed window seats, bold pops of colour, and cosy bedrooms to retreat to - you'll find all this and more inside this secluded cottage.

Just minutes away from the South West Coastal Path, this beautiful bolthole boasts breathtaking views over Nanjizal Cove from its private garden and is a short walk from the shore's rockpools and the Song of the Sea, a natural arch in the granite cliffs.

Inside, you'll find two sea-view bedrooms, a bathroom and shower room, and a living room with an inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove.

St Aubyn Estates Cottages

This property is part of the St Aubyn Estates Cottages Collection. Each cottage is relaxed, comfortable, and has breathtaking views. Perched high above the sea or nestled in an untouched cove, you’ll find them dotted along the unspoilt and stunning coastline of far west Cornwall. We are based down in Porthgwarra Cove, running the picturesque little Café, and always on hand to offer activities, assistance, or just friendly local advice.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

PORTHGWARRA

Sennen 3 miles; Land's End 4.1 miles; Penzance 12 miles.

The parish of St Levan derives its name from the 4th Century saint who settled here. The ancient ruins of his Chapel can still be seen today above Church Cove, one of three beautiful and secluded beaches on this wild, unspoilt, and staggeringly beautiful peninsular, the most South Westerly point in the UK. Porthgwarra, the next beach along, sparkles at the end of a valley. You’ll find tunnels hewn into the cliffs, and the Porthgwarra Cove Café, along with the Guest Hub. It is the place to go for breakfast, lunch, ice cream, cakes, cream teas, pasties, helpful advice, and arranging holiday fun. Seals are endlessly dropping by. Continue over the clifftops and you arrive at Nanjizal, accessible only by foot and without a road in sight. At one end stands the stunning Zawn Pyg (‘Song of the Sea’) a natural rock arch that has captivated people for centuries. If the fancy took you to go on, then Sennen is around the corner. As well as being nestled in secluded coastal locations, our cottages are just a stone’s throw from some of Cornwall’s best-loved sights. Porthcurno and the Minack Theatre are within walking distance. St Michael’s Mount, St Ives, and many of the area’s best beaches are just a short drive away.
