About this property
Rostowan, Portscatho, St. Mawes, Cornwall.
Rostowan sleeps up to 4 people and is situated in a very private location, close to St.Mawes on the South Coast of Cornwall, in the area where ITV filmed a large part of the Caroline Quinten 'Cornwall' series, especially The Hidden Hut...
Rostowan is located on the stunning Roseland Peninsula on Cornwall's south coast, which enjoys spectacular sea and rivers walks and views, woodlands and fields, winding lanes, ancient buildings and churches, much of it under the careful ownership of the National Trust.
At the very narrowest point of the peninsula, where Porth Creek and the sea almost cut it in half, Rostowan Villa nestles in a peaceful location with the creek just a stones throw away on one side, and the sea within ear shot on the other. Towan beach itself is just a short walk down the lane and even in the height of summer is usually very quiet.
We do welcome Dogs however make a charge of £25.00 per dog per week, so if you have more than one pet please do ask us first and we will add the correct fee.

Why they chose this property
We use this property for our own Family Holiday, it is in an incredible location which is within in easy walking distance to the Beach and on the other side it is even closed to the tidal creek which offers amazing Crabbing at high tide. The local Pub is about a 30 minute very peaceful walk away. Park the car and leave it, enjoy your holiday at Rostowan, we are sure you will.
