Welcome to An Diank Meur (Cornish for 'The Great Escape'!)
This beautiful 150 year old Cornish fisherman's cottage is full of character and original features. Conveniently situated in the heart of this historic fishing port, come stay and enjoy a truly Cornish holiday experience.
Set in a quiet backwater, 'An Diank Meur' is located within a few hundred meters of Porthleven harbour and perfectly situated for walking to the many bars and restaurants, various shops, galleries, the beach and coastal path.
Traditional yet sympathetically modernised and well maintained, the accommodation is arranged over 3 floors. With an abundance of exposed beams throughout, the comfortable lounge has a wood burner set in a feature granite fireplace providing the perfect place to relax after a long day on the beach or walking the coastal path.
There are three bedrooms located over 2 levels on the ground and first floor, which will sleep 5 guests - children only in the bunk beds (age 4-15 years recommended) The property is unsuitable for toddlers (under four years old) and the elderly/infirm due to steep steps. Babes in arms welcome.
Double bedroom on the ground floor has a 4ft bed; master bedroom on the first floor has a 4ft 6in double and Bedroom three, also on the first floor, is fitted with bunk beds suitable for children over the age of four.
On the lower floor, accessed via the original 19th century low staircase (mind your head!) is a modern, well equipped and fully fitted kitchen, utility room with dishwasher and washing machine and family bathroom with underfloor heating.
The property is electrically heated throughout providing a warm and cosy environment for any season.
