Description
Situation - Just a short stroll from the shoreline, this coastal retreat sits beside the serene pebbled beach of Porthallow, offering stunning views of the village and surrounding seascape.
Nestled on the Lizard Peninsula—one of Cornwall’s most untouched and scenic areas—Porthallow marks the official halfway point of the South West Coastal Path. As the southernmost tip of mainland England, the region boasts protected landscapes, much of it under the stewardship of the National Trust or private estates, and designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Once bustling with pilchard fishing boats, Porthallow still echoes its maritime past. A few local fishermen continue to work from the cove, while the beach itself has become a favourite spot for visitors drawn by its tranquil charm and wide views over the Helford River estuary.
The Property - Volney View effortlessly blends rustic charm with modern comfort, offering a beautifully balanced retreat in a character-filled setting. Thoughtfully renovated, the cottage preserves its authentic feel while introducing tasteful contemporary touches throughout.
On the ground floor, a bright and spacious sunroom welcomes you in, featuring a cosy wood burner and an eye-catching living wall. Double doors lead through to the inviting sitting room, where exposed beams, granite feature wall, and a second wood burner create a warm, atmospheric space ideal for relaxing evenings.
To the rear, a well-equipped galley-style kitchen provides a practical and stylish layout, complete with a range of base and wall units. It also benefits from direct access to the sunroom, enhancing the sense of flow throughout the ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor hosts two double bedrooms, both showcasing exposed wooden flooring and enjoying charming views across the village. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation.
Outside - Just across the lane from the cottage, the property enjoys a neatly presented, low-maintenance patio area. Bathed in sunlight for much of the day, it offers an ideal spot for outdoor dining or relaxing.
Alternatively, this versatile space also presents the potential to be converted into off-road parking, adding further convenience to the property.
