This cosy Cornish semi-detached cottage occupies a prime location overlooking iconic St Michael’s Mount, making this an ideal romantic bolthole for two within easy reach of the region’s many attractions. The quaint market town of Marazion claims to be one of the oldest in Cornwall. It’s best known as the gateway to St Michael’s Mount, a romantic castle perched atop an ancient mount, located 500 metres from the coast. Follow in the footsteps of pilgrims and walk the causeway or take the ferry over to explore. It’s also home to one of the most beautiful bays in the country with clean, safe beaches and abundant water sports. The area is rich with walking trails and perfect for birdwatchers, with RSPB Marazion Marsh just over a mile from the cottage. The historic harbour town of Penzance, with its fascinating history of pirates and smugglers and lovely subtropical gardens, is just 5 miles away.
This is a reverse-level property that’s tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard. On the ground floor, there’s a spacious double bedroom with a picture window overlooking the Mount and an en-suite bathroom. Steps lead up to the open-plan kitchen/lounge/diner, which features a compact and well-equipped kitchen, a comfortable lounge with sofa and chair, and a table for two set in the window with uninterrupted views over the Mount, which is especially romantic when lit up at night.
The property has a small lawned garden and raised patio with bistro table and chairs, ideal for outdoor dining in good weather.
