A double fronted cottage of great character at the end of an attractive row of mixed thatched and slate roofed dwellings in the pretty rural hamlet of Bohortha, a few minutes walk from the sandy beach of Porthbeor almost at the tip of St Anthonys Head.
Entered through a small porch with coat pegs which leads into a little hallway wide, rather steep stairs ahead, the cottage has a light, low beamed sitting room on one side. On the other side a beamed kitchen dining room has fitted units and electric cooker.
Upstairs is a bathroom W.C. with hand basin, heated towel rail and shower over the bath and two bedrooms with twin and a king size double bed respectively. The cottage is not ideal for toddlers. The area has lovely coastal and rural walks from the cottage and the foot ferry from Place (10 to 15 minutes walk) across to St Mawes runs every 20 minutes from April to October. From St Mawes, and again by foot ferry, it is possible to cross to Falmouth.
Tucked to one side of a large farmhouse the cottages are reached from an unmade track (where there is room to park) and a short path which leads to a wall and gate at the end of the row. There are open plan gardens to the front and service areas to the rear but each has its own spacious main garden reached by a few steps at the further end of the row about 75 yards away. Crotchet has a large lawn, drying area and lovely wide views of the countryside and sea beyond.
Porthbeor beach can be reached by footpath and a flight of steps; Towan beach about 3/4 mile down the lane has a National Trust car park and easy access by a sloping path.
Please note: Bed linen is available at £5 per person per week and towels are available at £3 per person per week payable on arrival.

There is an extra charge for pets, most commonly at £18 pppw (per pet per week).
Assistance dogs are of course welcome in all our cottages free of charge, however owners of them should be aware that a considerable number of people are allergic to dogs and in some cases can have a severe reaction. Owners are therefore encouraged, where at all possible, to choose a property which normally allows pets.
Some properties accept pets other than dogs, but in all cases we are required to confirm consent from the cottage owner. Please contact the office on 01208 821 666 if you would like to take a pet other than a dog with you to one of our cottages.
