About this property

Under a minute from the coastal cliff path and a short stroll down to the Elizabethan harbour, Briar cottage perches with stunning views over the historic village of Boscastle as one of the oldest dwellings in the Forabury area with the remnants of the orchard as its cottage garden. Dogs, Kids and salty Dogs all welcome. Great for families. There is a master bedroom with another spare room sleeping 2, cabin bedroom that is ideal for small people (probably not adults over 6 feet though!) a Breakfast Garden room, and a snug. Yarn away the day in a Cornish clotted dream. Recently refurbished Kitchen, ingle-nooke'd fire-place'd snug (with a TV that has internet TV only and is hidden away for those that are keen for a screen break) and Breakfast garden room with French Windows. A good spot from which to explore some of the best Beaches in the country.

Wonderful week at Briar Cottage

We had a marvelous week at Briar Cottage in Boscastle. It is extremely cosy and tasteful with a really magical garden. Great pubs and restaurants are close (5-15 minutes walk) as is the Coastal path (5 minutes walk). Don’t miss the sunset behind from behind the church yard – it is spectacular! We hope to be back in the future!

Lovely cottage stay

We enjoyed a great stay in the cottage in Boscastle, using it as a base to explore the Cornish coast. The bedrooms are lovely, the shower is amazing, and the garden is a lot bigger than the photos suggest. Things that prevented a higher score: the kitchen and its utensils would benefit from a little love, and the fire alarm is very sensitive - it went off every time we made some toast! Thank you - a lovely stay.
