    “The location is second to none.”

    Pubs, shop, restaurants, harbour, dog walking and parking are all easy and convenient. Destiny is a comfortable quirky cottage with good facilities. The cottage had warm background heating and the log burner worked really well. All the plumbing worked well too. The upper and lower floors are sloping and take a bit of getting used to, it can make you feel a bit giddy. but it's all character.

    Pubs, shop, restaurants, harbour, dog walking and parking are all easy and convenient. Destiny is a comfortable quirky cottage with good facilities. The cottage had warm background heating and the log burner worked really well. All the plumbing worked well too. The upper and lower floors are sloping and take a bit of getting used to, it can make you feel a bit giddy. but it's all character. The level walk from the cottage to the harbour along the National Trust footpath is safe, with lovely views and great for the dog. The only downside was the vacuum cleaner provided, which doesn't really work well and isn't up to the task. Otherwise this place is thoroughly recommended. Thank you.

The property

Destiny Cottage is a Grade II listed, terraced cottage, in an attractive row of seven, sits on the hill above and just a gentle stroll down to the centre of the famous village of Boscastle in Cornwall.

The cottage oozes charm, with old flagstone floors, gothic-style arched windows and knobbly walls, creating a delightful, romantic retreat for couples any time of the year.

Entry to Destiny Cottage is via arched doubled doors leading to a pretty open plan living area with well-equipped kitchen, dining area and cosy sitting area, where you can snuggle down in front of the wood burning stove after a day exploring the village.

Upstairs is a comfortable double bedroom with lovely oak floor and a bathroom.

Outside a neat, little enclosed garden overlooking a communal lawned area provides a haven of peace and tranquillity.

Although the garden is enclosed, it is not dog proof.

Just a short stroll downhill from the cottage are all the shops, pubs and cafés of this stunning village, where two rivers meet the sea in a natural harbour between steep moorland hillsides.

If you feel the need to venture further afield, explore the lovely cliff and wooded-valley walks, whilst lovely beaches at Crackington Haven, Bossiney and Trebarwith Strand are just a short drive away.

If history and folklore are your thing, head for Tintagel, rich in history and Arthurian legend.

This is a romantic cottage for couples in an ideal spot for exploring this beautiful stretch of coastline any time of the year.

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

About the location

BOSCASTLE

Tintagel 4 miles; Camelford 6 miles.

A perfect Cornish coastal village, the road through Boscastle runs down to the small harbour at the bottom of the hill. The quaint village shops, local restaurants and pubs offering good food, Cornish real ales and live entertainment by local musicians, make this an ever popular visitor destination. Spectacular cliff tops, rocky coves, wild surf, open fields and rich wildlife characterise this beautiful area. The coastal footpath passes through some of Britain’s most rugged and spectacular coastal scenery. The sandy beaches of Bossiney, Trebarwith Strand and Crackington Haven are all within 5 miles and the surfing beaches at Bude and Polzeath are within easy driving distance. Close at hand lie the delights of Tintagel, swathed in the legends of King Arthur, several stately homes and renowned gardens, or the wide open space of Bodmin Moor, famous for its granite tors and Daphne Du Maurier’s Jamaica Inn.
