There is an agreed easement for access with the adjoining property (3 Hillside) to use their garden gate to enter and cross the garden of Polperro House for the purpose of bringing large items of furniture into their house or to maintain their own garden.

It is possible to drive part way to the property or park in the main car park and proceed on foot. On reaching Polperro go straight over the mini roundabout with the Crumplehorn on your left. Proceed along the main road (The Coombes), continue past the Claremont Hotel and on reaching the Ship Inn you can park in one of the two spaces marked PH. To proceed on foot from here turn right out of the car park and walk along the street passing the Post Office on your left, continue along and you will see Toad Hall Cottages on your right, the road bears left here into Talland Hill. Polperro House can be found on your right approximately 50-75 yards up the hill.

Due to the narrow streets we would strongly advise those visiting Polperro for the first time to park in the main car park, which is just before the mini roundabout, and proceed on foot. Please do not drive down Talland Hill to the property and do not rely on satellite navigation.
