Crumplehorn House is a charming Grade II listed family home situated in a central location in the very heart of Crumplehorn on the outskirts of the thriving and popular coastal village and harbour of Polperro.

The property has been successfully run as Tea Rooms with a licensed Tapas bar with bed and breakfast bedrooms upstairs for a number of years and the current owner has owned the property for about nine years. Currently, part of the property is used in part for commercial use and part for residential use.

The property is situated at the bottom of the hill as you enter Polperro. There is currently ample parking beside and behind the property for at least six vehicles although some of the parking could be converted back to lawned garden to provide more outside space. The back door leads through into the commercial kitchen which in turn leads down some steps to the preparation room. This latter room could be converted into a utility room for a single residential dwelling. At the front of the property is the dining area and front door which has a large open fireplace with a wood burner.

This room overlooks the main road and stairs lead up to the residential part of the property above. To the rear of the dining room is a rear dining and sitting area which has a cosy feel and leads back round to the preparation room/utility room. Stairs lead up to a half landing where there is a WC and cloakroom for the guests downstairs. A door leads through to a landing and sitting room at the front, which could be converted back into a fifth bedroom, subject to gaining planning consents. The principal bedroom is beside this with a family bathroom. A door leads through to a rear corridor and back door that leads off to a rear lane. At the other end of the rear corridor are stairs that lead up to the second floor which has been used for bed and breakfast and consists of three en suite bedrooms, each with its own shower room.

Subject to gaining the necessary planning consents and change of use, it is assessed that the property could be converted back into a single dwelling by putting in a new kitchen and utility room, creating a fifth bedroom upstairs and creating some lawned garden from some of the parking area.


Polperro is a village and fishing port originally belonging to the ancient Raphael Manor mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Situated on the River Pol, four miles west of the major resort of Looe and 25 miles west of the major city and port of Plymouth, It has a picturesque fishing harbour lined with tightly packed houses which make it a popular tourist location in the summer months.

Fishing trips or pleasure cruises can be arranged from the quayside, or one can take the cliff path to explore the secluded smuggling coves of Talland and Lantivet Bay.

The village enjoys the benefit of a local primary school, restaurants, pubs and shops including a Post Office, bakery and a general store. The charm of the village is protected by its status as a conservation area, and the harbour is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. secluded smuggling coves of Talland and Lantivet Bay.
