Captains Rest is located in one of the most sought after areas of the popular Cornish fishing village of Porthleven, just moments from the beach and conveniently positioned for enjoying all of the amenities this bustling coastal village has to offer. Stunning beach and sea views can be enjoyed from its clifftop net loft sun room which is detached from the main residence and enjoys an outlook over the beach, out to sea and the rugged Cornish coastline. The property is currently run as successful holiday let and has been enhanced by the current owners.

In brief, the accommodation comprises an entrance hall, bedroom one and completing the ground floor an ensuite shower room. On the first floor there is a lounge, shower room, bedroom two and an open plan kitchen/diner. To the outside of the property at the rear is a pleasant, hard landscaped garden which would seem ideal for Al Fresco dining whilst opposite the road to the front of the property is the sun room with patio terrace located on top of the beach. Also across the road from the main residence is a parking space for Captains Rest which with parking being at a premium at times in the village will win favour with prospective purchasers.

Porthleven is a vibrant, picturesque fishing village and is mainland Britain's most southerly port. The village is renowned for its many highly regarded restaurants, long beach, surfing, rugged coastline and clifftop walks. Community groups are thriving within the village with sports clubs and a prize winning brass band which can be heard echoing around the harbour on many a summer's Sunday evening. Local amenities include shops, Public Houses, galleries, supermarket, doctors' surgery and a well regarded primary school.
