Lovely break, fantastic house!

The house was amazing, exactly what we needed. Lovely large kitchen/ dining room. House was warm (we stayed over new years) and comfortable. Parking was a bit of a challenge but we managed fine.

Excellent value for money

My son loves fishing so I wanted a house near a harbour. This house is a short walk from Boscastle harbour and ideal if you want to explore the coast without the car. House is very functional and clean with a beautiful garden.

About the host

Hosted by Kay Hopes

Although I now live in Surrey with my family I grew up in North Cornwall and went to school in Bodmin. I left Cornwall after my A levels to go to university in London.
Cornwall is a very special place for me and I love nothing better than walking on the cliffs above Boscastle.

Since we have owned the cottage we have been gradually improving it to a very high standard. We hope that visitors to Tao will love the cottage as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

I wanted to take my children to Cornwall as it is a place close to my heart. We spent 5 happy holidays at Tao Cottage before the previous owners told us that they were selling the cottage as they were retiring.
We loved both the cottage and Boscastle so were very happy when we were able to buy Tao.
Boscastle is a beautiful village in a dramatic setting; nothing can beat the view of the village as you come down to it from Camelford.
The local people are very friendly, the cottage is cosy and all in all it is a perfect place to relax and unwind.

What makes this property unique

Tao is a perfect place to stay in Boscastle. It is only a few minutes walk from the harbour and shops yet also quiet and peaceful as it is located in the Old Road away from the traffic coming into the village.
