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.

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.

Fabulous cottage in lovely village
The cottage is full of character. It is very comfortable and well equipped. The walking is great. We walked straight from the cottage on 2 days and easy drives to other walks the other days. The local pub has very good food and we enjoyed the live music. Would highly recommend the cottage.

Cosy cottage near the Cove
We have been coming to Cadgwith for the last 10 years and this was the best place we have stayed by far. Great location close to the Cove and a garden with a lovely sea view. We had good weather so didn't spend a great deal of time indoors but we slept well in the beds and benefited from 2 great showers as well as a free standing bath! The cot was very clean and we had been left tea bags,milk and a bottle of wine. We had a slight issue with the hob but this was immediately rectified by the owner who replaced the faulty hob with a new one. This was particularly impressive as it was a bank holiday weekend. We would love to stay here again.

Fabulous winter week in Cadgwith
We couldn't have stayed in a more perfect cottage and village than the Cot in Cadgwith - it was exactly what we'd hoped for. The Cot is welcoming, comfortable and homely and is equipped with everything you need, and is just a stone's throw from the beach. We walked a good amount of the South West Coastal Path right from the front door, enjoying a rewarding drink at the exceptionally friendly local pub afterwards. There's so much to explore in this lovely part of Cornwall and for us, Cadgwith was a magical place from which to do it.

The Cot is a beautiful cottage in a stunningly lovely village
We had a lovely week in The Cot. The house is interesting and comfortable and has everything provided for a relaxing stay. We were lucky to have some good weather and the view from the garden is fantastic! We loved having a great pub so close ( Tuesday folk session a highlight!) and being able to walk the South Western Coastal Path right from the door.

Wonderful traditional seaside cottage in small and very friendly seaside fishing village.
The Cot was just perfect for our needs; very comfortable, welcoming and warm. The view from the garden above the cottage is spectacular whether you are watching the sun rise or the sun set. The Cot is also very well located for access to the coastal path and, as importantly, the local pub which serves great seafood and welcomes visitors wholeheartedly. We have no doubt that we will return! Thank you Fiona.

Gorgeous cottage in perfect Cornish setting
My wife and I wanted a quiet mid-winter break on the Cornish coast. A friend, who returns to Cadgwith most years, recommended the Cot. This cottage is a delight! It has just about everything we wanted: a cosy place to relax in a pretty fishing village, located a few yards from the coast path and friendly village pub, garden with views across the village and bay, deep bath, and well equipped kitchen. The cottage has been beautifully restored without loosing the charm of its historic features. Highly recommended.

Delightful cottage in a great location
I stayed for a few days walking on the SW Coast Path, The Cott is in an ideal place for walking on the Lizard. Well appointed and maintained, close to the coast and the village pub.

Fabulous location, comfortable yet quirky, lovely deep bath!
Loved our stay, being the tucked in behind the pub and with parking was just such a treat. We felt the heating in the cottage needed a little maintenance but having the little portable fire sorted that out. The settees in the lounge are comfy but do lack in character a bit and one blocks the fire which seems a shame. A lick of a rich cream colour instead of white, a change of settee and a coloured throw or two would really boost the interior and maybe some basic cleaning supplies in the kitchen and it would have been 4 stars from us. We had a great week.

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.

Es ist ein original Fischerhäuschen sehr hübsch und zweckmässig eingerichtet , einem schönen Garten mit wunderbaren Aussicht. Der Ort selbst friedlich mit einem guten Pub ein par kleine Geschäfte in denen mann das nötigste einkaufen kann manchmal sogar frischen Fisch und Krabben. Denn die Fischer fahren regelmässig zum Fang aus. Es ist ein super Ort um viele Wanderungen der Küste entlang zu machen. Wir haben unsere Ferien sehr genossen und fühlten uns sofort sehr wohl und willkommen. Der Vermieter ist sehr freundlich und unkompliziert . Wir würden das Objekt jederzeit weiterempfehlen .
