About this property
Cockleshell Cottage, pristine luxury and tranquility
The property is beachfront, and has unobstructed spectacular sea views to The Mount - St. Michael's Mount - the beach and far reaching views over Mounts Bay – recently voted one of the most beautiful bays in the world - and the Lizard peninsular, from both inside, through the glass wall and picture windows and outside on the patio and balcony. Finished to the highest specification and fully loaded with quality appliances, a luxury bathroom with separate double rain shower and Jacuzzi bath, solid oak flooring through out, a full SKY HD package with sports & movies & BT Sport. BT Infinity 2 internet with Wi-Fi, a Bose docking station, a Roberts internet radio and a 5ft four poster bed . The open plan living room with luxury fitted kitchen is the centre of the house and revolves around the stunning wall of glass looking directly at the iconic St Michael's Mount. It is within 4 minutes direct access to the Blue Flag beach, dunes, & amenities. Activities include fishing, swimming, sailing, surfing and kite-surfing, cycling, walking or rambling and bird watching at Marazion Marsh RSPB Reserve , visits to Historic houses and enchanting gardens. It is a perfect escape for a honeymoon, romantic long weekends, retirement and OAP short breaks. There is something for everyone. The inviting waves rhythmically land onto the expansive, soft sand beach, in a moon shaped World Heritage bay, with dramatic cliffs and heather and the majestic and magical castle standing proud. What better way to soothe away the stresses and strains of everyday life, stirring contrasts of both, zen and peace into body, souls, mind and spirits.

Stunning outlook from the living room which is situated on the upper floor to maximise the views, really relaxing place to chill out, open the doors when it’s warm and take it all in. Easy access to some amazing food in the village and plenty to do in the local area even in the winter season. Had a great time here and would heartily recommend
Everything you could possibly want or need from a holiday rental was provided at Cockleshell Cottage. Sue has thought about every detail to make your stay as comfortable and ‘as like home’ as possible. The views and location are unbeatable- I cannot recommend this property highly enough and I can see why people keep going back!
Our hosts, Sue and Simon, go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. We were greeted with a refrigerator containing local food (cheeses, eggs, meats, creams and more) fresh loaf of bread, wonderful bottle of wine and fresh flowers. Who could ask for a more lovely beginning.
I was looking for a place where I could relax, chill and go for walks with me dog, I got all this and so much more from this cottage, Sue is a fantastic host and provided me with a delicious home cooked meal on arrival. Everything was thought of and I will most certainly be looking to stay here again next year.
