Sarum

Boscastle's harbour sits at the heart of some of the most dramatic stretches of the North Cornwall coast. The South West Coast Path cuts through this section with sheer cliffs, hidden coves and long sandy beaches within walking distance. The village itself has pubs, cafes and gift shops clustered around the working inlet, and it makes a good base for exploring further afield along the coastline.

Sarum is arranged over two levels: upstairs is the main living space, a large open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area with windows across the valley toward the sea; downstairs holds four bedrooms and access to a decked garden with furniture and a gas barbecue. Two of the bedrooms are doubles, one has bunks and one is a sofa bed; there are two bathrooms on the upper floor. Parking is on site for two cars, and a detached garage 25 metres down the lane stores bikes, kayaks and boards. The property sleeps seven and welcomes one dog.

Electricity, heating, wifi, bed linen and towels are all included. The kitchen has what you need to cook properly—oven, hob, dishwasher and fridge-freezer. No smoking throughout.
