    “The cottage was fantastic as was the location.”

    The only problem was the shower it's boiling hot one second and the next it was freezing cold no mater how you adjusted it.

    I am sorry for the delay in replying to you. Due to the unique location and design of the cottage the shower is electric and subject to variations due to external water temperature and pressure. We have consulted a plumber since your review and the electric shower provided is the best option available for the cottage and is working normally. Unfortunately, with this type of shower it can be difficult to get the settings right and it can sometimes take a minute for the temperature change to take effect. I am sorry you had trouble with it.

The property

Smugglers Cottage is a unique single‑storey coastal cottage nestled directly into the rugged rock of the dramatic north Cornwall coastline at Trebarwith Strand, just two miles from Tintagel.

Set against the cliff face and enjoying breathtaking sea views, this characterful Cornwall holiday cottage offers an unforgettable romantic getaway for couples seeking a peaceful escape by the sea.

The property blends contemporary furnishings with a light, stylish décor, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that perfectly complements its striking coastal setting.

The open‑plan living space is positioned at the front of the cottage to make the most of the stunning outlook and includes a well‑equipped kitchen with everything needed for relaxed self‑catering, whether you are cooking a leisurely breakfast or a romantic evening meal.

The dining area is ideal for intimate dinners, while the woodburning stove adds both warmth and charm, creating a cosy ambience on cooler evenings after a day exploring the coast.

The inviting lounge features a generous sofa, perfect for curling up and unwinding with your favourite TV shows.

At the end of the day, retire to the spacious king‑size bedroom, designed to ensure a restful night’s sleep, and enjoy the modern shower room with high‑quality fixtures and fittings to prepare for the day ahead in comfort.

Smugglers Cottage is ideally located for discovering everything this spectacular stretch of the Cornish coast has to offer, from golden sandy beaches to dramatic cliffs and scenic coastal walks.

Trebarwith Strand beach is just moments away and offers a welcoming café, making it easy to spend the day swimming, sunbathing, picnicking or trying your hand at surfing.

Nearby Tintagel Castle, famously associated with the legends of King Arthur, sits dramatically atop a clifftop and offers fascinating insight into Cornwall’s rich history, while Merlin’s Cave below provides an enchanting experience for visitors.

Bodmin Moor, the Eden Project, Padstow, Camel Estuary and Port Isaac are all within a short but scenic drive.

Smugglers Cottage is a truly special coastal retreat and the perfect base for exploring the picturesque and north Cornwall coastline.

About the location

TINTAGEL

Camelford 5.9 miles; Wadebridge 13 miles.

Tintagel, home of the legendary King Arthur’s Castle, whose ruins dominate the cliffside just outside the village, is a popular but not overcrowded tourist destination. The surrounding area is dominated by the sea, rocky coves and stunning scenery. Several beaches, including nearby Trebarwith Strand and Bossiney Cove, are within easy reach and surfing is the main attraction for those who love the water. Tintagel has several pubs and restaurants and the Old Post Office (National Trust) is a must. For the energetic, the SW Coast Path passes through the village and in both directions it winds its way along the cliffs and down to the water’s edge through dramatic countryside. Head north along the path and in 2.5 miles is the beautiful village of Boscastle with its quaint quay and village pubs for refreshment. Further afield are the surfing meccas of Newquay and Bude, with their resort attractions, while the open spaces of Bodmin Moor, the Eden Project, Padstow and the Camel Estuary are all within a 40-minute drive.
