    “Our first visit to Cove Cottage.”

    The location is stunning. We settled in very readily and think the modernisation and furnishings are excellent. We had brought sufficient for self-catering, much of it frozen and fortunately we did find the freezer but feel the cellar should be explained in the notes. The refinement and detail in kitchens is always so welcome in St Aubyn Estate properties and we would like to suggest a few items which would add to this aspect. Lemon squeezer, oven gloves, better range of glasses especially ...

    The location is stunning. We settled in very readily and think the modernisation and furnishings are excellent. We had brought sufficient for self-catering, much of it frozen and fortunately we did find the freezer but feel the cellar should be explained in the notes. The refinement and detail in kitchens is always so welcome in St Aubyn Estate properties and we would like to suggest a few items which would add to this aspect. Lemon squeezer, oven gloves, better range of glasses especially smaller wine goblets. We applaud the provision of sustainable cleaning equipment although we found them hard to use effectively. Thank you so much. We look forward to returning next year.

The property

Just a stone's throw from the shoreline at Porthgwarra, this inviting cottage is the perfect spot for seal watching and early-morning dips in the sea. Think weathered stonework and wood beams coupled with stunning views over the rocky cove and down to the beach.

Sleeping up to four guests, this cosy bolthole right on the rugged Cornish coastline offers an open-plan living space, a double ensuite bedroom and a twin room with a separate bathroom making it ideal for families and small groups.

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.
