Fisherman's Cottage

Welcome to Fisherman’s Cottage a fabulous one-bedroomed grade II listed historic stone cottage in the lovely coastal village of Bossiney.

Situated close to the famous town of Tintagel, a well-known place of myths and legends, Fisherman’s Cottage is truly stunning and unique. Renovated for couples looking for a romantic break or a base to explore the county of Cornwall, it’s a real delight inside and out.

Deceptively spacious and well-appointed for a self-catering stay, enter the living area with full kitchen, dining area, electric fire, TV and Wi-Fi included during your stay. Head through into the king-size bedroom, with an adjoined bathroom with shower, basin and WC.

Outside there are lovely places to sit and enjoy, with two decked areas both at the front and rear of the property. There are sea and costal views from the rear decked area and a private parking space equipped with an EV charger.

Less than a mile away is the centre of the charming seaside village of Tintagel, hosting an array of eateries where you can sample some traditional Cornish delicacies, or cream teas - remember jam first always in Cornwall!

Tintagel is famous for its connections to the legendary King Arthur with Tintagel Castle resting atop a cliff and boasting dramatic seaside views. Resting below the castle ruins is also Merlin's Cave, another historic attraction well-worth the visit. Further afield is the popular award-winning town of Bude with its beaches and ample opportunities for water sports. An excellent base to explore ‘Kernow’, with some of the country’s most beautiful coastlines and beaches on your doorstep!

Quirky cottage but additional touches made it easy to enjoy

garden chairs for the decking when it was sunny. Tea coffee and milk. I&#39m 6ft 1 so the doorway posed a challenge oncetwice but added to the charm. Lovely and surprisingly easy to heat especially when it was a miserable grey rainy day Sore head from low doorway

Small but characterful cottage.

The character was amazing and the ev charging point was really useful. No cupboard space for any food purchased and very little for clothes. All the cupboards and drawers were full of equipment, including the wardrobe so that I could not properly hang my dress.

Excellent location but shame about outside space. Allows pets but wouldn't say it's & pet friendly!

Brilliant location out of town but within easy walking distance, and on the doorstep of the coastal path, 2x quiet beaches and Bossiney Tea Rooms (excellent!). Cosy and comfy interior well kitted out kitchen and everything in working order. Outside space wasn't really pet friendly, and it was a shame that you either sit outside the front directly next to the road,out the back looking over the car park. A shame not to be able to relax outside at the property, and because it was dark inside we didn't want to be in there in daylight hours either!

Brilliant location

Great for early morning or late evening walks on the Headland with the dog. Could even watch the sunset in the sea from the Cottage. Many interesting features and limited space certainly maximised to good effect. Particularly appreciated the socket on the 2 tvs which allowed us to watch the Club World Cup games. Would have liked some way of blacking out the main skylight at night

Liked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
Fisherman's Cottage was a fine example of a historic building and the various internal areas were well designed considering the size of the property. Due to its age cobwebs were an expected condition. The various floor levels made walking difficult for my wife, particularly into the bathroom. She fell in the 'kitchen' area the first night and we ended up doing the rounds of the local hospitals the next day. The front garden was quite good but needed weeding, the back garden needed a great deal of attention.
Stayed 8 nights in May 2025

A magical Hobbit-like retreat full of history and really cosy!

Very easy to find and access with stunning walks from the doorstep. Extremely quiet and private with the parking space next to the property ideal! Communication with the host was brilliant, very proactive. Overall a wonderful tiny bolt hole to spend a week!

Lovely little cottage, ideal for the solo traveller

The location was good, central to get anywhere. The property size is a little on the small size, ideal for the solo traveller, cosy for a couple.

Fantastic Fishermans Cottage

We thought it was a unique, quirky cottage, with plenty of tasteful items to make it really special. It was comfortable and cosy, with everything we needed. The location was ideal for us to walk to Tintagel Castle, Bossiney Cove and local amenities. Nothing negative, it was perfect 👌
