A lovely little cottage in just the right place in Cornwall. Very well presented and so spacious for a small cottage. The Cream Tea on arrival is just the added bonus to the trip. Ideally placed for Lands End, Minack Theatre, Tate St. Ives, Newlyn Gallery, Leach Pottery and so much more for those who want a cultural and artistic break.
