Description from owner

Description

The Old Oil House of Boscastle is a delightful two bedroom holiday cottage full of character that still retains many original features, and occupies a prime position near to the harbour in the sought after North Cornwall coastal village of Boscastle.

The accommodation is layed out as a single level apartment on the ground floor, boasting a well equipped kitchen and modern bathroom. It has a double and twin bedroom sleeping up to 4 people.

Positioned in the heart of the village The Old Oil House is ideally located for the shops, public houses and restaurants near the harbour.

A short walk along the harbour wall to the Cornish Coastal path makes it an ideal holiday retreat for walking holidays. Approximately 3 miles from Tintagel with its historical castle and links to King Arthur, and the beautiful beaches of the North Cornwall coast in both directions make this self catering cottage an ideal base for family holidays in Cornwall.

The Old Oil House is dog friendly and has its own allocated parking space.
