Follow the coastline south to the picture perfect setting of The Dairy, this once former farm outhouse has been beautifully refurbished - incorporating repurposed building materials - to present a romantic retreat made for two. With a modern coastal twist think luxury and relaxation for your time out be it lazy autumn weekend, action packed Spring break or simply a week by the sea. The Dairy offers accommodation for 2 adults and is moments from the scenic town of St Mawes offering a fusion of nautical tradition with a more cosmopolitan vibe. Walk to Portscatho from your holiday door and enjoy the coastal village life and beaches.
Second visit to this lovely cottage and we were not disappointed. The cottage is lovely, extremely well appointed and very cozy. It has everything you would need for a week away from it all. Loads of walks. Portscatho is a lovely village and the two pubs are wonderful. Also, the addition of the bird feeder outside the kitchen window was a real treat as, every morning, we were greeted with loads of blue and great tits scoffing away! Already looking forward to coming back next year and discovering more walks!

Step Inside
The Dairy has been transformed from a forgotten 1930s barn to a super-stylish holiday home. The full height open plan living, dining and kitchen area has been carefully mapped out to encourage the relaxation of holiday life. Sink into the comfortable sofa with a favourite film or enjoy an overdue catch up with your nearest and dearest. The kitchen is fully fitted in a modern style, the budding chef in the party can get creative with some of Cornwall's finest ingredients including the freshest of fish caught locally. The indulgent double bedroom has been decked out in soft creams and oatmeal with crisp white linens to compliment whilst the solid oak flooring completes the country cottage ambiance. After the days coastal adventures then sink into a hot bath in the contemporary bathroom before heading out for a slap up supper Cornish style.
