REAR COURTYARD:
The cosy courtyard has been recently renovated and features the cottage's namesake - a compass - inset in the patio. This space provides a welcome outside retreat complete with metal patio set and bench.

UPSTAIRS:
Up the turning staircase you'll find an array of closet space designed for case and hanging contents. Compass Cottage benefits from having two comfortable and welcoming double rooms.

BEDROOM ONE:
This main bedroom features a king-sized bed, complete with wall mounted bedside lights and drawers. The room also enjoys shallow storage in the built-in cabinetry and a dressing table. A range of duvets and linens have been selected to cater to a variety of sleepers. From this room you'll catch a glimpse of the Bowling Green and enjoy views of the oldest house in Flushing - An Coth directly opposite.

BEDROOM TWO:
This slightly smaller room is furnished with a similarly stylish double bed. Again there is storage in the form of bedside cabinets and dressing table. Hanging space is also provided in the wall hanging cabinet. Both bedrooms feature mounted art from a range of local artists and craftspeople.

MAIN BATHROOM:
We hope that you take the time to enjoy a deep bath in our luxury bathroom. The fixings are in keeping with the Grade II-listed property and the Fired Earth bathtub in particular envelops the bather - take advantage of the wine glass holder for some quality you time!

ATTIC ROOM/ BEDROOM 3:
This recently finished room is a revelation for the family enjoying their Cornish adventure and from the front skylight you'll enjoy views out over the Carrick Roads to the town of Falmouth. The space is equally adaptable for younger children as it is for teens and adults. The attic room features comfortable sleeping for three in the form of two beds and a trundle. The warm and welcoming space features an array of books, blocks and wooden toys perfect for the small ones. A new flat-screen TV ready for hooking up to a games console or DVD player will likely delight the older ones. Under-bed storage invites clean-up and organization. Once the kids are settled into this space, they won't want to leave... Something that will likely mean a quiet main house~!
