General Comments - Quarry Cottage is a detached Grade II listed character property which has retained many original features and believed to have been a terrace of three thatched fisherman's cottages. The cottage is beautifully presented throughout with beamed ceilings, multi pane windows with seats below and an open fireplace in the sitting room. This is a classic example of a Cornish fisherman's cottage set just above the harbour village in one of Cornwall's most sough after coastal locations.
The Property - To the front of the cottage the glazed entrance porch leads through a stable door into the open plan dual aspect kitchen/dining room with a comprehensive range of base and wall units, breakfast bar and storage cupboard. The atmospheric sitting room has a central Cornish stone fireplace with open grate, windows and stable door to the front and a small paned door leading to the rear patio.
The newly appointed bathroom has a contemporary suite with a double ended centre fill, freestanding bath, walk in shower, pedestal wash basin and low level WC. A separate cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation. Stairs lead to the first floor landing where there are three double bedrooms, the master with sea glimpses, and a family bathroom.
Portloe - Portloe is arguably the "jewel" in the crown of the Roseland Peninsula. The village has seen little or no intensive development in modern times and still retains its traditional atmosphere with clusters of old stone cottages set in a cleft of the cliff and descending to a delightful small harbour still used by local fisherman but with the industry now concentrating on crabs and lobsters. The local community all work to keep the village alive, organising events throughout the year.
Not surprisingly most of the village has been declared a Conservation Area and there are many listed buildings. Local facilities include a pub, church, car park as well as the Lugger Hotel, a bus service runs throughout the year and the larger village of Veryan is about two miles away. Here there is a pub, church, primary school, post office/general store, as well as a social/sports hall with indoor bowls and tennis courts.
Much of the land in the area is owned and protected by the National Trust and the clifftop walks in the immediately vicinity are exceptional. The nearby Carne and Pendower Beach is also a favourite with local and visitors alike. The Nare Hotel is located above Carne beach.
