Single-storey Downderry cottage with woodburner and EV charging

By The Beach is a detached single-storey cottage in Seaton, near Downderry on Cornwall's south-east coast. Built entirely on one level with wheelchair access, grab rails, and a walk-in shower with seat, the property accommodates up to 8 guests and welcomes dogs at no extra charge.

The open-plan living space combines kitchen, dining area, and sitting room with a woodburning stove and sofa bed. Three bedrooms include a double with en-suite walk-in shower and grab rail, plus two twin rooms where beds can be joined into king-size on request. A separate bathroom features a claw-foot bath. An adjoining garden room with concertina doors extends the living space. The kitchen is well-equipped with a dishwasher, American fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, and 55-inch Smart TV.

Outside, an enclosed garden provides two separate sitting areas with furniture. Private parking accommodates three cars, with EV charging available by arrangement. There is dedicated outdoor storage for bikes and kayaks, plus a dog washing station. Downderry Beach - a south-facing stretch of sand and shingle with views across Whitsand Bay - is 0.9 miles away. Plaidy Beach near Looe, known for calm waters and rock pooling, is 2.3 miles distant.

The village of Seaton sits on a quiet stretch of coast between Looe and the Tamar Valley. The nearest pub is 0.3 miles away. Plymouth is roughly 30 minutes across the Tamar Bridge, and the coast path in both directions offers varied walking with views over Whitsand Bay.

Nearby: Downderry Beach (0.9 miles) and Plaidy Beach (2.3 miles). See our Downderry guide for more beaches and walks in the area.
