This property has just undergone refurbishment, with a completely new kitchen and contemporary bathroom.

A pleasant stroll along the traffic free Warren soon brings you to Nepenthe where, from its elevated position, the visitor can enjoy magnificent Channel and harbour views, probably some of the best in Polperro. This Grade II listed cottage has the charm of a bygone age. The large kitchen diner and the sunny sitting room both have open fireplaces for those looking for the romance that a roaring log fire can bring! The spacious rooms are functionally furnished and the cottage is ideal if you are seeking to experience the simple and quieter side of life. The icing on the cake is to peep out of any window which never fails to reward and soothe the visitor with water and harbour views.

Accommodation: Approximately 10 steps lead up from the path to the garden gate, leading through to a glazed front door. Kitchen/diner incorporates the character of the cliff face, with slate floor, lovely old farmhouse table and 6 chairs, 2 painted wicker sofas, open fireplace and small TV. Well equipped and recently refurbished kitchen area with built-under stainless steel electric oven, ceramic hob, fridge-freezer, microwave, washer/dryer and a dishwasher.
