Puffin Burrow is a charming, historic, romantic couples retreat by the edge of the beautiful cove, in the traditional Cornish village of Portmellon.
There are wonderful sea views stretching out across pretty Chapel Point from the bedroom, living room, patio and lower terrace. Owned by an interior designer and an artist this 18th century traditional Fishermans cottage has been sensitively modernised whilst retaining its period character. With the glorious Cornish sea air and tranquil sounds of waves lapping just outside, Puffin Burrow offers a relaxing and calming escape to reinvigorate the soul.
The cottage is on the South West Coastal Path with great walks in both directions. Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the close proximity of the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Others will love relaxing on the patio watching the day go by.
Portmellon is a quiet attractive cove surrounding a sandy beach. 50 yards from Puffin Burrow there is a traditional old smugglers pub serving local ales. There are kayak and paddle board hire facilities and an outside café in the summer months. Portmellon is a short walk away from the pretty harbour of Mevagissey with its quaint cottages around the fishing harbour supporting a great variety of pubs, shops and restaurants.
