Ocean View

Ocean View is a four-bedroom cottage in Downderry on the south Cornwall coast, sleeping 10 across 4 bedrooms in 2 bathrooms. A private hot tub and open fire are the main draws indoors, while the enclosed garden gives dogs and guests outdoor space without leaving the property.

Downderry Beach is 400 metres from the front door - a quieter stretch of sand compared with Looe or Polperro, good for paddling and dog walking outside peak season. East Looe Beach is 3.7 miles along the coast for a busier day out with cafes and boat trips. Seaton Beach is the nearest beach, about 0.1 miles away as the crow flies.

Wi-Fi is included throughout. Parking is off road. The house has a games room, and a pub or shop is within a mile. The hot tub is private, so it is for the group's own use rather than shared with other guests.

The 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms give groups of 10 enough room without queuing, and dogs are welcome in the enclosed garden. Plaidy Beach, 3.1 miles east, is a quieter alternative to Looe for a less-visited day out.

Best for groups of up to 10 wanting a coastal base with a hot tub and plenty of room. Saturday changeover.
