Denzils

Denzils is a three-storey quayside cottage for three in Polruan. One king-size bedroom and one single suit a couple with a child or two travellers wanting separate rooms, with one bathroom shared between them. The kitchen/diner and the bathroom, which has a shower over the bath, are on the ground floor, the two bedrooms are on the first floor and the lounge is on the second. WiFi is included; dogs are not accepted. The cottage has no parking of its own, but there is a drop-off point 100 yards away and nearby car parks sell weekly tickets.

The coast path runs outside the property towards Lantic Bay, Polperro and Bodinnick. Readymoney Cove is 600m away, while Lantic Bay is 1.2 miles and Lansallos Beach 2.6 miles from the cottage. The passenger ferry provides access to Fowey's shops, restaurants and pubs, subject to service times and weather.

A dishwasher and washing machine support self-catering and longer stays. The three-storey arrangement is a clear drawback for some guests. Guests should check the stair layout and the walk from the drop-off point with the owners before booking.

With the ferry to Fowey and the coast path on the doorstep, guests can manage without a car for much of the stay. Best for three guests wanting a working quayside base, ferry access and coast walking. Less good for limited mobility, private outdoor-space expectations or more than one bathroom. Bodinnick is the nearest named village.
