Cornish Cottage sea 100m four bedrooms Kingsand, homely & comfortable

Jackdaw Cottage
Situated on the Rame Peninsula, Kingsand is a delightful unspoilt village with quiet beaches. The roomy 100 year old cottage has four bedrooms, two shower/bathrooms and sleeps 8 plus a baby and is only a short stroll to the beach (about 100 yds). The villages of Kingsand and Cawsand have four pubs, which are all very pleasant and serve good food. The village is on the Cornish Coastal Path and there are many lovely coastal walks. Late special deals are available, please contact the owner. The cottage is very comfortable & well equipped, but it in an old building and not a modern apartment which some guests may prefer.
Bedroom (Bed 1) – Large room with king-size double bed and cot, storage heater (please would guests bring their own linen for the cot, all other bedlinen is provided but not towels)
Dining Room – 7 foot dining table, seating 8 people, high chair, Park ray solid fuel boiler for central heating.
Guests are advised that at the height of the season and bank holidays there is normally a 7 night minimum stay, we hope you understand as this eliminates void rental periods at popular times.
Kitchen – fully fitted all facilities. 3 further bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, outside – there is a sunny courtyard.


Further Property Details: 1st Shower-room/toilet, heated towel rail but only when boiler is burning

2nd Shower-room/bathroom/toilet/immersion heater/warm air heater

Large Sitting Room – Television, DVD, 3 x three seater settees (one of which is a double sofa-bed for occasional use only), easy chair, and coffee table, open fire, radiator, storage heater

Double Bedroom (Bed 2) – King size double bed, sea views to the south and towards Penlee Point, radiator when boiler is on

Bedroom (Bed 3) – Two single beds, radiator when boiler is on

Bedroom (Bed 4) – Two Bunk-beds suitable for children, radiator when boiler is on, spare single mattress (occasional)


Large cottage suitable for large family or two families sharing

Directions & Places of Interest: The property is best accessed from the east by the Torpoint Car Ferry which operates on a 24 hour basis. The journey from Torpoint to Kingsand takes about 15-20 minutes, via Antony, (turn left to Cawsand). Then follow signs to Kingsand, on entering the outskirts of the village, from Jackman’s Meadow, turn left to Kings and down Fore Street. The property is on the left and is opposite the gift shop. There is a local shop, open from 7:30 a.m. to 7.30 p.m.which sells virtually all needs for groceries whilst on holiday . A post office is about 75 yards away and the beach is 100 yards. There are four pubs, The Halfway House (75yds), The Rising Sun, The Devonport Inn and The Cross Keys as well as another bar on Cawasand beach, they are all within walking distance. There is also a bistro on the way to Cawsand. The beach is safe for swimming and is protected by Penlee Point. A short drive away is the Edgcumbe Arms at Cremyll.

Booking: Booking & Reservations. There is a 25% deposit required with each booking, the balance of the rental is due one month prior to your holiday and on receipt a key will be sent to you. There is also a returnable breakage deposit of £75.00. For convenience beds will be made up ready for guests when they arrive. Please make cheques payable to Mr A. Sartorius at the address below. Changeover day is Friday and guests are requested to always vacate at strictly 10.00am (unless otherwise agreed in writing, this is to allow for extra cleaning due to COVID-19) to allow cleaning and change of bed linen, you will appreciate it is very difficult for the cleaner to do the work efficiently if guests are still in residence. (We would request that guests remove linen from the beds used and put in black plastic bags ready for the cleaner and leave the property clean and tidy. We ask all kitchen utensils are put through the dishwasher too). Arrivals are from 4.00pm. Car parking is available at Napier Car Park and special weekly rates are available, should this be full, guests can off-load outside the cottage & park at the top of the village in Jackman’s Meadow. Out of season short breaks are also available.

Important
The owners draw guest's attention to the fact that rubbish collection is normally by Rame Refuse at the end of each stay, please double bag rubbish, no loose please. It should be left outside the front door, in the seagull proof sack of the house by 10 am latest on the day you leave. This is very important otherwise a mess will be made in the street if birds rip open the sacks. We ask that guests please empty all the room bins too, to avoid two collections by the bin men, all bottles, cans, paper etc should be separately packed for recycling. Your cooperation on this is important so as not to make an unpleasant job worse. Please would guests recycle all bottles if at all possible, failing that store separately in clear plastic bags. Unfortunately Cornwall Council have removed all local recycling facilities nearby. We are sorry but we do not take pets.

Lovely old cottage, loads of room, ideal for large family. The kitchen had the best range of utensils I have seen in a holiday let and we stay in quite a few. Lovely open fire in lounge which is very inviting in the winter. Very clean and excellent bedding and mattresses. Perfect position in Kingsands

Great property and location
The house is spacious comfortable and we'll equiped. The location was a lovely surprise, the photos don't do it justice. There are many beautiful walks straight from the property. Mt Edgecombe I'd about an hours walk and there's a foot ferry that leaves from Cawsand beach to Plymouth if you don't feel like driving. Really enjoyed our stay.
