Luxury holiday cottage set in the beautiful south Cornwall village of Flushing

Situated in the heart of the picturesque village of Flushing, this charming fisherman's cottage has been completely renovated in 2021 and is perfect for families and couples alike. Flushing itself is ideal for those wanting everything within easy reach.
The cottage itself is ideal for 4 with 2 bedrooms and two shower rooms. The homely cosy sitting room has all of today's modern comforts. The house is fitted with efficient smart heating to keep you toasty on windswept days. There is a fabulously comfy sofa to recline on, two comfortable chairs, a smart TV, plenty of books on the local area and even OS maps so you can plan your adventures (of which there are many within easy walking distance).
The kitchen has all the mod-cons you need to rustle picnic lunches to dinners with friends. The table sits up to 6 people and is a perfect place to while away an evening. Walk through the patio doors to the garden which is a sun trap to while away an afternoon reading a book.
The master bedroom has a large king-size bed with traditional shutters and a window seat to watch the world go by. The second bedroom is a twin room with the original floor boards restored. All the beds have top quality cotton Egyptian linen, lamb's wool blankets and sumptuous cushions.
Both bathrooms have walk in showers and come complete with a heated towel rail to keep towels warm and fluffy. The bottom bathroom also has a butler's sink perfect for wetsuits (or babies).
Outside you will find a charming garden with outside lighting, chairs and table, gas BBQ and lots of herbs that you can use for cooking. The garden is ready for alfresco meals or to enjoy sundowners after a long day on the beach.
A travel cot and high chair are available - you'll just need to let us know and bring your own linen for the cot with you.

Simply perfect

Fantastic location, lovely cottage, clean, high standard of decor, linens, towels etc. Good powerful showers, This is the fifth time that we’ve stayed in Flushing, each time at different houses. This one we would be happy to stay at again. Great communication from the owner and some well thought out things such as a second set of keys. The courtyard is a sun trap, and despite the high winds outside, the courtyard was still and peaceful. If you haven’t booked yet, what are you waiting for, you won’t be disappointed.

Family Holiday

We had a very enjoyable stay in Flushing. The cottage was cosy and comfortable and had everything we needed, we were particularly pleased with the over abundance of fluffy pillows and loo roll! Jackie was super helpful with advice about the area and really made sure we felt welcome with all the information and a bottle of chilled wine. Although parking directly outside the cottage wasn’t always available (as advised) it was easy enough to find a space in the village and everyone was kind and friendly, so not a problem at all. Highly recommend and would very happily return. Thankyou for a lovely holiday.

Beautiful cottage near Flushing Harbour

We stayed here for a week, but all agreed we could live there forever. Beautifully decorated, comfortable, clean & everything you need. Close to the harbour to get ferry rides, 2 pubs, and restaurants all next to the harbour. And a little store round the corner for shopping. And the host is wonderful & friendly.

Exploring South Cornwall and Fal Estuary

Fantastic stay - in a pretty fishing village Everything we needed and a great location to explore the south Cornwall coast and the River Fal valley. Spotlessly clean and plus extras that we didn’t expect - such as a welcome bottle of wine. 😀 Great communications with the host and whole process went smoothly. Would recommend a visit if wanting to Falmouth and the Roseland area .

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay in your beautiful house. We were warm, cosy and really comfortable, and loved the location. Despite our fairly long list of places and countries to visit no doubt we’ll have an opportunity to return to Cornwall and will definitely try to stay at Albatross again.

From check in to check out this little holiday cottage in Flushing was perfect. What a wonderful location, close to the shop, park, beach and pub. The accommodation is even more stunning than the photos portray and the garden is such a lovely space. Jackie the host was excellent with communication prior to our stay and also during. The cottage is very well equipped and felt like a home from home. Thank you for a wonderful 5* stay in Flushing.

Highly Recommend!

Just returned from a fantastic stay! The cottage was perfect - we felt so at home! The cottage had everything we needed and was very nicely furnished and decorated. Communication with Jackie the host was excellent. Overall a very happy and comfortable stay! Flushing as a village we loved. With family staying in Falmouth, we caught the water taxi but driving round was no issue either. Enjoyed the costal walk to Mylor Harbour from the cottage and a walk to the Saturday morning Farmers market. Had a fantastic group meal at Castaways in Mylor harbour too. Would highly recommend a stay, you won’t be disappointed!
