About this property
The Hideaway in Downderry
New to our collection for Summer 2025, Hideaway is a peaceful coastal retreat in Downderry just a short drive from Looe on Cornwall's beautiful South Coast.
Tucked away in a quiet, private spot in the charming seaside town of Downderry, The Hideaway is a delightful studio-style holiday home perfect for a relaxing escape. With a mezzanine bedroom and cosy living space, this retreat is ideal for solo travellers or couples seeking peace and tranquility with easy access to the coast.
As you arrive, a cobbled set of steps winds up through pretty shrubbery to a decked terrace (please enquire if any accessibility issues), surrounded by greenery it creates a welcoming entrance to the property. Step inside to a light-filled open-plan living area, with a comfortable two-seater sofa, a wood burning stove for chilly evenings, a dining table with seating for four, and a kitchen. Amenities include an electric oven and four-ring hob, microwave, and a fridge with a freezer compartment - everything you need for simple self-catering.
The bathroom offers a full-size bath with an electric shower over, WC, and hand basin and upstairs, the mezzanine bedroom provides a cosy sleeping space in the eaves.
There are pleasant views to the sea from the deck and dining room and the kitchen windows look out across the rolling countryside. Surrounded by nature, the deck is the perfect spot to sit and enjoy the peace with a good book and cup of tea or a glass of wine.
Downderry beach is just a short walk away and when they tide is out, it is a lovely walk along the beach to Seaton. Bewshea's is a very popular Tapas restaurant in Downderry and The Beach House in Seaton is a relaxed seaside venue popular for lunches. The Downderry Village Store stocks all your essentials and is open daily with a Post Office open twice a week. There is also a cafe to enjoy. For those looking to explore further afield, the vibrant fishing town of Looe is within easy reach, offering shops, cafes, and traditional Cornish charm.
One well-behaved dog is welcome.The bustling fishing town of Looe is only 15 minutes away by car. Please note there is no reserved parking with the property but there is free on road parking within a short walk.
Whether you’re exploring the stunning Cornish coastline or simply unwinding on the terrace, The Hideaway offers a peaceful and comfortable base for your holiday. Bed linen and towels are provided for your stay.
