Cottage in England
Reasons to book
About this cottage rental
Inside, the cottage is light, bright and full of character. Picture windows flood each room with natural light, framing views across sparkling blue waters. The main sitting room is a cosy haven with armchairs placed either side of a large stone fireplace, while the plush sofa invites you to stretch out and unwind. It’s a perfect space for morning coffee as the fishing boats head out to sea, or for an evening curled up with a good book and a glass of wine. A second sitting room, complete with sofa and TV, offers a snug space for family movie nights or quiet relaxation.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully equipped with everything you need for self-catering, from quality appliances to charming crockery, creating a welcoming space to cook up fresh local seafood or hearty family suppers. Gather around the dining table in the peaceful dining room or head outside to the garden to dine alfresco amid the scent of flowers and the fresh sea air. Comfy loungers make this a delightful spot for sunbathing, reading or enjoying an evening drink as the sun begins to set.
Upstairs, three lovely bedrooms continue the home’s tranquil seaside theme, each with large windows framing stunning sea views. After a long soak in the deep bathtub, drift off to sleep to the sound of gentle waves and wake to the sight of glimmering light dancing across the bay.
In St Mawes, you’ll find everything you need just moments away including boutique shops, waterfront restaurants and traditional Cornish pubs. Explore St Mawes Castle, stroll along the harbour or take a ferry across to Falmouth for a day out. The sheltered beaches nearby are ideal for swimming, paddleboarding or simply relaxing with your toes in the sand.
Venture further afield to discover the Roseland Peninsula’s scenic coastal paths, hidden coves and charming villages. Visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan, take a walk along the South West Coast Path, or spend a day exploring the cathedral city of Truro. However you spend your time, The Old Court House offers an unforgettable stay in one of Cornwall’s most beautiful seaside settings.
