Magdalene Cottage

Magdalene Cottage sleeps four in Polruan, the hillside village facing Fowey across the harbour, with Bodinnick as the nearest ferry village a mile north. Both bedrooms have super-king-size beds, and one uses zip-links that can be split into twins on request, sharing a single bathroom that has both a bath and a separate shower cubicle.

An open fire is the main indoor feature. Outside, an enclosed rear terrace offers dining space alongside a further garden area. Wi-Fi and parking are included, and dogs are welcome, so check the dog limit when you book. The kitchen has an electric oven and hob, a microwave and a fridge with an ice box. The sitting room has exposed beams, a window seat and a Smart TV.

Readymoney Cove is 800 metres away, Lantic Bay is 1.1 miles from the cottage, reached by a steep footpath, and Lansallos Beach is 2.5 miles away. The passenger ferry to Fowey runs year-round from the quay in about five minutes, opening up the town's shops, restaurants and the Daphne du Maurier Literary Centre. The Bodinnick guide covers the neighbouring ferry village.

**Best for:** four guests wanting two flexible super-king bedrooms, an open fire, an enclosed terrace and the Polruan ferry on the doorstep. **Less good for:** guests needing a second bathroom or step-free access.
