The area -
A large self built detached family house, positioned next to our home in the middle of Boscastle.
The house offers many amenities for self catering, with spacious bright bedrooms and living area, modern kitchen and utility room, snug, and off road parking. Outside is a lawn and patio area.
It is a few minute’s walk from the beautiful North Cornwall coastal paths, the local park, and a short walk down the hill to the harbour.

The Granite is situated along New Road in Boscastle, Cornwall. Part of Boscastle is National Trust and is famous for the floods of 2004 which devastated the village; it is now once again picture perfect with a delightful selection of gift shops, local potteries, art galleries, public houses, cafes and restaurants.
You can also find one of Britain’s most unique and well loved independent museums “Museum of Witchcraft” the world’s oldest and largest collections of items related to witchcraft and magic.
Boscastle harbour is another attraction where you can go fishing or crabbing. There are many stunning walks along Boscastle Cliffs and The Valency Valley Woods.
