Tucked away beside a tranquil courtyard only yards from the seafront in the beautiful harbour village of St Mawes, this historic cottage has been totally refurbished by the Owner. Full of character & history, yet with a complete range of modern equipment, this cottage is very conveniently placed, yet in a peaceful location. The large exterior courtyard is a little sun trap and has been specially designed by award winning landscape designers "Mor Design" of Falmouth.
It is surfaced with beautiful slate & cobbles and is the most delightful and peaceful place to sit and enjoy.
The cottage was probably originally a fisherman's cottage and is thought to be at least 500 years old and constructed around a similar time to St Mawes Castle. The ground floor beamed ceiling is quite low so taller guests will need to watch their heads! The open plan living area is superbly presented with great use of light colours to bring a lovely warm feeling to the cottage, yet retaining all the character of the building. There is a modern, fully fitted kitchen and a lower area with 2 large comfortable sofas on which to relax. The single bedroom is off the ground floor hallway and benefits from an en-suite shower room. The main double bedroom and large bathroom are at first floor level, making this an ideal large cottage for a couple or perfect for 3. The bedrooms and bathroom do have blinds over the windows (not shown in the photos).
Facilities & Services
Heating to the cottage is via underfloor heating. The kitchen has an electric oven, microwave, slimline dishwasher & fridge with freezer compartment. There is a flatscreen digital TV with DVD player and stereo in the lounge. There is a foot spa available to ease sore feet after a long walk!
There is an iron & ironing board.
Miscellaneous
Electricity, heating & bed linen are included, but you need to bring your own towels. Parking is available either on the quay or the main car park or on the seafront in the evenings or out of season. Up to 2 very well behaved dogs are permitted at a small additional cost of £25 per dog / per week. There is STRICTLY NO SMOKING PERMITTED ANYWHERE ON THE PROPERTY. There is a travel cot and high chair available upon request.

St Mawes is one of the finest waterside villages in Cornwall. Situated overlooking an idyllic bay on the eastern side of the famous Falmouth Estuary, St Mawes has one of the mildest climates in Britain due to its proximity to the Gulf Stream. The sea is at the heart of the village and has helped to shape St Mawes from the little fishing village to the fashionable holiday destination that is so popular with visitors. A mecca for boating enthusiasts, St Mawes is a particularly popular sailing centre. Weekly club racing, village regattas and larger events are commonplace on the superb waters of the bay all through the summer.
| We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Lavinia Cottage. It was very clean and comfortable throughout and equipped with everything we could possibly need! Thank you again - we had a great holiday. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed our recent holiday in St Mawes. We were delighted with Lavinia Cottage. It was beautifully decorated and refurbished throughout and was spotless on our arrival. Both the owner and the people responsible for cleaning the cottage can be very proud of it. We found the position excellent for accessing all of St Mawes and parking wasn't an issue. We would be very happy to stay in Lavinia Cottage again. |

| We found Lavinia cottage to be instantly liveable. There was plenty of storage space and the secluded yard is open to the sun most of the day. Any meal could be produced with the kitchen equipment provided, hot soft water gushed into the large showers and we found the beds more comfortable than our own at home. |
