Perfect for two, perfect for five, and everyone in between!
Tuc-Tin is a wonderful character filled fisherman's cottage renovated in 2006, we have retained all the character and charm and added lovely things like a shower bath and essential dishwasher!
Tuc-Tin is in the heart of the thriving sea-side town of East Looe on the south coast of Cornwall. It is set in the old part of the town, down a quiet lane, with a flower pot filled alley outside the back door. From the bright blue front door it is only 200m to the beautiful sandy beach and newly paved promenade and only 200m the other way to the fishing boats on the quay, restaurants and shops. This is the perfect setting for a holiday where, if you don't want to drive further, stop here!
The front door takes you straight into the cottage. Slate tiles throughout the ground floor are typical of Cornwall. There are two lovely leather sofas with lots of cushions.
To the front a stylish wood slat blind gives privacy and sumptuous gold and blue Monkwell curtains give luxury and glamour. Central heating throughout the cottage means you can enjoy this gorgeous cottage at any time of year. A flight of winding stairs leads from the living room upstairs to floor twin bedroom. There is a radiator in each room for extra winter warmth. Up a further steep flight of stairs brings you to double bedroom. Also on the top floor is a single bedded room with 3' single bed. The huge sandy beach is fantastic for sunbathing and sand castling. There are no dogs allowed at any time of the year so you know your children are safe with their buckets and spades. There is a cafe right by the beach so you don't need to walk far for a cuppa, ice-creams, chips and other snacks. In the summer hire deck chairs and wind-breaks on the beach and let the kids go on the trampolines. Parking - There is a pay and display car park in the centre of town and another just over the bridge (£22 per week in Summer 2008). Accommodation: Ground floor, Open plan living room and kitchen , dining table. TV with digital receiving box and DVD player. Electric oven, hob and extractor, fridge, washer/dryer, microwave, dishwasher, toaster and kettle. Due to the steep stairs this cottage is not suitable for anyone who finds steps difficult. The cottage sleeps up to five. Babies are very welcome but it will be a squeeze with only the twin room able to site a travel cot which you will have to bring, as one is not provided. First floor - Twin bedded room with two 3' single beds (pocket sprung mattresses). Bedside tables, and hanging hooks. TV/Video, digibox.
Bathroom fitted with showerbath, WC and wash-basin. Full length mirror.
