Ocean View

Ocean View is a 2-bedroom property in Marazion, sleeping 4 across 1 bathroom, with sea views over Mount's Bay and St Michael's Mount. The cottage is 300m from Marazion Beach and sits on the Fore Street, putting cafes, pubs, and the waterfront within a short flat walk. Parking, wifi, dishwasher, and washing machine are included. No dogs and no garden.

Marazion Beach is a long stretch of sand facing the bay, with the tidal island of St Michael's Mount visible from the shore. At low tide, a granite causeway connects the beach to the island - the walk takes around 10 minutes and the route is well signposted. The island has a medieval castle, sub-tropical gardens, and a cafe. Long Rock Beach is 2.3km east along the bay, and Perranuthnoe is 2.4km south-west - a smaller, quieter beach popular with local families and bodyboarders.

Marazion has two pubs, a sailing club, and a range of independent cafes and galleries. Penzance - with its rail station, the Newlyn fish market nearby, and gallery spaces - is roughly 5km to the west.

Suits couples or small groups of up to 4 who want sea views and an easy walk to the beach without needing a car. Not great for guests with dogs or those needing a garden or outdoor space. Changeover is Saturday.
