About this property

The Cot in Cadgwith Cove- sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

In a row of whitewashed, thatched cottages in a Cornish fishing village, The Cot is one of those places where you can drink in all the atmosphere of Cadgwith and its history. Sunny and south facing, this cottage has been beautifully renovated to an extremely high standard, allowing you to enjoy the cove in very comfortable, stylish surroundings. Low beams, open stonework and original wooden doors - together with a secret room, possibly a smuggler's hidey-hole - all add to the appeal of this 16th Century property.

You can enjoy freshly caught fish and crab in the Old Cellars Restaurant or in the Cadgwith Cove Inn, the local pub and social hub of the village. The Inn is the venue for a thriving Folk Club on Tuesday nights and traditional Cornish singing every Friday. In high season, seafood barbecues, fishing competitions, gig racing, a regatta and a folk music day are social highlights of this charming, unspoilt village in South West Cornwall.

Angel Cove
Der kleine Außenplatz war sehr ungepflegt, die eiseren Gartenmöbel verrostet, man konnte sich nicht darauf setzen, Auflagen gab es nicht. Die Stelle mit den Liegestühlen ( die es nicht gab)war ein steiler ungepflegter Pfad, oben angekommen, hingen alte Hängematten, in die man sich auch bitte nicht legen sollte.Im allgemeinen ein sehr ungepflegter Außenbereich.Aus diesem Grund würde ich das Haus nicht wieder mieten, das Haus innen war OK.

Wonderful Cottage
This small, picturesque cottage is in an idyllic location with a steep garden that has views over Cadgwith. We loved it and hope to return again.

Warm and cosy cottage
We had a fabulous stay at this lovely cottage, comfortable cosy and warm, we had everything we needed. There is a great view of the Cove from the top of the garden (on a hill) where you can relax in the sun with a nice glass of wine. Cadgwith is a lovely unspoilt Cove and is incredibly peaceful with a very good pub. There are lovely walks straight out of the cottage along the coastal paths or drive a short distance to the Lizard and Kynance Cove. We even had fish and chips with fresh Cadgwith caught cod delivered to our door from Treleague Dairy Farm who are just up the road and do a takeaway service. All in all, a very enjoyable break and we would definitely return.

About the host

Hosted by Fiona Fletcher

Host profile image
We live in a small fishing village on the Lizard Peninsula, South west Cornwall with our three young boys. Simon is a retired fisherman and I am a teacher at a hospital school. We are a small, family owned and run business and we are delighted to say that many of our guests return again and again.

Why they chose this property

The Cot was Simon's grandparents' home. We lovingly restored it and retained as many of the original features as possible, whilst making it comfortable and equipped for modern day living.
