Jordan House

Jordan House sits on Dunn Street in Boscastle village, sleeping four across two bedrooms with two bathrooms. The house is set on three levels: the lounge and kitchen are on the ground floor, two bedrooms are up steep stairs and a shower room is below. Steps lead down to the cottage. It has an open fire, BBQ, and a small gravelled garden. Wi-Fi, dishwasher, and washing machine are included. Parking is on a quiet road. One pet is accepted, at £30 per pet per week.

Boscastle harbour is a short walk from the property. The inlet is one of the more sheltered natural harbours on the north Cornwall coast, rebuilt after the catastrophic flood of August 2004 that damaged much of the village. The Museum of Witchcraft and Magic on the harbourside holds the world's largest collection of witchcraft-related artefacts. The village has a pub and small shop. The South West Coast Path passes through, running south to Tintagel and north to Crackington Haven across high slate cliffs.

Bossiney Cove is the nearest beach at 2.2 miles - a secluded cove below the cliffs accessible via a steep path, with rock pools and occasional surf. Crackington Haven is 4.7 miles for a broader beach with a cafe.

Right for groups of four wanting a base in a genuine North Cornwall coastal village, with walking from the door. Steps lead down to the cottage and the stairs to the bedrooms are steep. Good for those who appreciate history and coastal walks. Less good for families needing a large garden for children to run around in - the garden is compact and the village itself is on a steep slope.
