Formerly a Scottish shooting lodge, this delightful cottage has been refurbished and updated to provide a high standard of accommodation in a truly spectacular setting. Its large picture windows focus on the amazing views across the sea, with seabirds wheeling round the cliffs with the sandy bay below. Dolphins are even spotted direct from the lounge windows. Situated on a working farm, sheep lambs and cattle graze the adjoining fields. The owners also own the beautiful cove and bay a few yards from the cottage. This idyllic sandy and shale beach, sheltered by the cliffs behind, is easily accessible, as visitors can park on the shore. There are ancient caves, crystal clear turquoise seas and a myriad of seabirds; a wonderful place to relax and unwind. Pennan is a quintessential fishing village. Renowned as the location for the film Local Hero which was filmed here in the 1980's it can boast the most famous red telephone box in the world, which still sits on the quayside. A narrow winding lane leads down to the pretty seashore, with rows of white washed cottages placed end on to the sea, it's unique character and atmosphere can be best described as 'Cornwall without the crowds'. The local village hall has undergone a recent refurbishment and is a popular venue for romantic weddings. At the far end a small harbour is used by leisure craft as well as a couple of small fishing vessels. There is plenty to see and do in the area.
