Fairholme

Fairholme is a three-bedroom cottage on Lundy Road in Port Isaac, 300 metres from Port Gaverne Beach. The property sleeps 6, welcomes one small dog, and has two bedrooms on the ground floor.

Two bedrooms sit on the ground floor - a twin and a double, each with their own shower and wash basin - alongside a separate WC. The first floor has a king-size bedroom with an en-suite bathroom featuring a bath and shower, plus a sitting room reached by open tread stairs. The merchant advises care on the steep step out of the twin bedroom shower cubicle. Guests who need step-free access should check with the owner before booking. The dining room, on the ground floor, has a woodburning stove and leads into a conservatory. A kitchen with a dishwasher, integrated fridge-freezer, and washer-dryer completes the layout.

Private parking for 2 cars is included, and the enclosed garden has a picnic table. Port Gaverne Beach, a sheltered cove with calm water for swimming and kayaking, is a 5-minute walk. Tregardock Beach, a remote sandy beach with rock formations, is 3.3 miles away.

Port Isaac is a working fishing village with a 14th-century harbour and narrow streets recognisable as the filming location for Doc Martin. Nathan Outlaw's Michelin-starred restaurant and several seafood spots are in the village. The coast path west leads to Port Quin, about 1.9 miles along the cliff.
