Balcony Cottage

Balcony Cottage is a Grade II listed 18th-century property on Garrett Street in Cawsand, sleeping 6 across three bedrooms over two floors. Sea views carry from multiple rooms, including the balcony that gives the cottage its name. Kingsand Beach is 100 metres from the front door, with Cawsand Beach 200 metres in the other direction - two of the most accessible beaches on the Rame Peninsula.

The cottage has two bathrooms, a garden, dishwasher, washing machine, and Wi-Fi. Accessible layout makes it a practical choice for guests with mobility needs, which is uncommon in listed buildings of this age. Parking is included. The twin-village setting of Kingsand and Cawsand has a working harbour, several pubs, and a small selection of independent shops within a short walk of the property.

Cawsand's history as a smugglers' village is visible in the tight lanes and low doorways throughout the old quarter. The Rame Head peninsula to the south offers circular coastal walks with Plymouth Sound views. Whitsand Bay, one of the longest beaches in Cornwall, is 5.7km along the coast path. The ferry from Cawsand to Plymouth runs seasonally, connecting the village to the city without driving.

Ideal for groups or families wanting two beaches within 200 metres alongside a historic village setting. Suits guests who want accessibility features in a period property. Not great for anyone needing a garden with privacy, or those wanting modern open-plan layouts. Friday changeover. Rated 4/10 from 38 Sykes reviews.
