All bedrooms have views over the estuary and / or Custom House Harbour. The living room is on the third floor to take advantage of the spectacular views. From the living room and the balcony you can see both St Mawes Castle and Pendinnis Castle.Guests have commented the house is rather like living on a luxury boat as the rear walls of the house go straight into in the water. Thus in the rear bedrooms you hear the soothing sound of the sea lapping against the walls - the perfect sleep aid! On the fourth floor there is a second smaller sitting room (with 2 sofa beds) and a large balcony overlooking the estuary and Custom House Quay .
