About this cottage rental
Place Lodge is a Victorian coachman's cottage situated opposite the gates for Place House and 100m from the quay and dinghy park, there is off-road parking for 2 cars a sunny and secluded patio where roses and honeysuckle soften the ancient stone walls, there is also a small garden, the southwest aspect ensures sunlight floods in through the leaded windows into a living room which benefits from a beautiful wood burning stove and comfy seating. Character features have been carefully maintained including a decorative Cornish Range in the kitchen which has just been installed and is brand new for 2024. Upstairs there is a large master bedroom with a 5' king size bed, a twin bedroom and a bathroom. There is a further single bedroom downstairs to the rear of the cottage and a separate shower room.
By land, the nearest village is Portscatho, about a 10 minute drive away, there are a couple of great pubs, some cafes and art galleries, a few hotels, and a local shop, it is a vibrant local community with regular events during the year. From Place slip you can catch a regular ferry during the season that links St Anthony with St Mawes and onward ferry connections to Falmouth.

Great cottage in a fabulous location. We all really enjoyed our stay. Plenty of walks and kayaking. Ideally it could do with a bit of cutting back and tidying up around the parking area so that you don't get nettled or caught on briars when getting in and out of the car.

We have stayed in the Lodge previously. It is a cottage full of character set in a beautiful location. It has all you require for a holiday. Walks can be taken from the door. The ferry ( in the summer) to St Mawes is a sones throw away. It is ideal for dogs

We have loved Place for many years, staying in the area previously and always thought Place Lodge looked very interesting.
The house was interesting and Stylish in a vintage shabby chic way, the kitchen and bathrooms were well equipped and the heating system was easy to work. The owner/ agent popped in to see if we were settling in on the first afternoon, which was very nice..
The beds were quite comfortable, although I am very fussy and tried them all, pillows were not brilliant.
Place is a beautiful spot, quite remote, we love the ferry to St Mawes which runs throughout the day but stops running early evening.

This cottage has everything you need for a peaceful and relaxing holiday in a wonderful place. The garden is enclosed so safe for your dog and there are lots of great walks from the door. I’d say the cottage is rustic which means you can feel relaxed there with your pet. There is no welcome pack which was fine for us as we always bring our own supplies but worth a mention so others can bring their own milk etc. Nicky was great and made sure we were looked after especially when there was a Powercut which was out of their control. We’ll definitely go back!
