Cormorants Polruan, village, sea & coastline views
Experience - The Area...With lovely views over the village to the sea and coastline, this attractive, contemporary detached house with unusual architectural features is set at the top of Polruan, across the estuary from Fowey. Entered from the open driveway where there is space for 3 cars, a short gravel path leads through the garden to the fully glazed front door, opening to a hallway with central staircase, impressively high ceiling and a stripped wood floor.Polruan has a small selection of shops and pubs next to the quayside just under half a mile away down the steep hill and a foot ferry operates from here across the river to Fowey where there is a wider selection of amenities. The coves and beaches of Lansallos and Lantic Bay are a short distance away and the South West coastal path offers excellent walking and lovely scenery to Pencarrow Head. Polperro is 5 miles and Looe about 9 miles. Stay - The Accommodation...The ground floor accommodation furnished in a seaside decor with soft tones, comprises a cloakroom W.C. and hand basin, a small twin bedded room and a bathroom with bath and vanity basin. At the far end there is a snug area with a Jetmaster log fire set into the wall, casual seating next to the slate hearth and double glazed French doors to a Southerly aspect decked patio, ideal for alfresco dining. An archway leads through to an adjacent kitchen/dining room with a limestone floor, modern fitted units including an electric range cooker and floor length windows overlooking the village and sea beyond. A carpeted staircase leads up to a mezzanine level where there are a utility room with laundry facilities, a walk-in wet room with shower W.C. and hand basin and a small bedroom with two single beds and French doors to a sheltered sundeck. Stairs continue up to the first floor and a light, south facing sitting room with wood burner, exposed beamed ceiling, leather settees and patio doors opening to a balcony where the last of the evening sunshine and lovely views out across the rooftops to the sea and coastline can be enjoyed. To one side of the lounge, a door leads into the double bedroom with a kingsize bed, coastal views and built-in wardrobes. The Mediterranean style garden incorporates an uneven paved patio and decked area bordered by flowerbeds, shrubs and tall grasses and enjoys village and countryside views with the sea in the distance - the garden is not enclosed and there is an unguarded drop down to the road below.

Polruan
This was a nice property to stay with great sea view. The hill to the village is strenuous especially with small children. Village inconvenience store very disappointing . Used Spar at Pelynt. Looe beach preferred because of parking and access .

August 2022 summer holiday
We had a wonderful time in Polruan. The house is very well laid out, very generous space for the four of us. It’s quite far up the hill from the river and ferry, but aside from the climb up the steep hill, very located and we had a fantastic holiday.

Nice property, needed a good clean
The house was nice. Unusual layout but the cleanliness was disappointing particularly as we had to wait until 6pm to enter the house for "Extra COVID cleaning". Lots of dust, pots and pans were dirty on the shelves and lots of dirt on the wetroom floor. In fairness its a difficult property to clean with lots of nooks and crannies but it was a disappointing start.
Very comfy beds and a lovely terrace.
Polruan is a pretty village and the nearby Lantic Beach was lovely.

Spacious, comfortable house in a fabulous location.
We had a wonderful half term week at Cormorants. The house is warm, spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed as a family of 6. There were wonderful walks within striking distance of the house, within stunning scenery in every direction. The village of Polruan is picturesque with a regular foot ferry service to Fowey, which has plenty of shops and restaurants. All in all a great place to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Cormorants and look forward to returning again one day.
