Crotchet Cottage (4801) - sleeps 4
Crotchet Cottage in Portscatho sleeps 4 people. Nestled in the heart of Cornwall's Roseland is Crotchet Cottage, a double fronted cottage at the end of an attractive row of mixed thatched and slate roofed dwellings adjacent to a working farm.
Crotchet Cottage is located in the pretty rural hamlet of Bohortha which is just a few minutes’ walk from the dog friendly, sandy beach at Porthbeor (almost at the tip of St Anthony's Head). Currently, Porthbeor beach is not accessible due to landslides rendering the cliffs unstable however, Towan beach (a relatively secluded shingle and sand beach) is just a short drive away or better still, accessed via a stunning walk across the cliffs.
Owned by the National Trust, this dog friendly beach has a car park and easy access by a sloping path. Just remember to bring your National Trust membership cards with you to park free of charge.
The nearby village of Gerrans is just a couple of miles away and has a super pub and most famously, its ancient church, St Gerrans.
The local area to Crotchet Cottage has lovely coastal and rural walks with the pretty coastal fishing village, Portscatho just 3 miles from Crotchet. Portscatho has a selection (some may be seasonal) of pubs, cafes and shops to cater for your holiday needs as well as a beach (part rock and sand). The walk to Portscatho over the cliffs is a great way to work up an appetite and the Plume of Feathers pub in Portscatho is a firm favourite with walkers. A little further beyond Portscatho is the famous Hidden Hut cafe.
St Mawes is a short 7 mile drive from Crotchet Cottage and is well worth a visit. From St Mawes you can catch the foot ferry across to Falmouth. The ferry operates all year round with frequent crossing to and from St Mawes to Falmouth.

General
A number of lovely cottage features adorn Crotchet including pretty sash windows with window seats and latch cottage doors throughout.
As you would expect from a cottage of this age and style, some ducking of heads maybe required for those taller (5'7+) members of the party to the downstairs kitchen, sitting room and doorways.
There are open plan gardens to the front and service areas to the rear but each has its own spacious main garden reached by a few steps at the further end of the row about 75 yards away. Crotchet has a large lawn with drying area and garden furniture provided.
Directly opposite the cottage front door is a useful shed/outbuilding which the owners are happy for guests to use.
