Agar Cottage

Agar Cottage is a semi-detached three-bedroom cottage in Trelights, a small village on the high ground above Port Isaac. It sleeps 6 with 2 bathrooms. The kitchen and dining room are a step up from the sitting room, open-tread stairs lead to the bedrooms, and there is a shower room on the ground floor. Dogs are welcome.

A wood burning stove in the sitting room and a BBQ serve different ends of the calendar - the stove for damp shoulder-season evenings, the BBQ for summer. The enclosed garden gives dogs a secure outdoor space. WiFi, dishwasher, and washing machine are all included. Parking is for one car opposite the cottage, plus one off-road space behind. Port Gaverne beach is 1.2 miles - a small, sheltered cove east of Port Isaac with calmer water than the open beaches nearby.

Trelights sits roughly half a mile inland from the harbour. The walk down to Port Isaac takes around 10 minutes on foot through lanes. The village has restaurants, a fish shop, and the Platt - an open square on the foreshore where the Fisherman's Friends perform in summer. Port Isaac's harbour is narrow and the lanes are steep; arriving by car at busy times requires patience.

Suits families or mixed groups wanting a north Cornwall base with a proper garden and dog-friendly setup. Works well for guests who want to use Port Isaac as a base but prefer quieter village accommodation over the harbour itself. Polzeath is 10 minutes by car for surf. Changeover is Friday.
