Pandora Cottage

Pandora Cottage is a charming semi-detached Cornish cottage tucked along a peaceful lane in Point, where the quiet beauty of south Cornwall reveals itself from the moment you arrive.

Step inside and discover the stunning open plan kitchen and dining space, where exposed oak beams, full-height glass windows and doors frame the garden and creek beyond, filling the room with natural light and a wonderful sense of calm.

The striking ink blue kitchen, beautifully finished with contemporary fittings, is sure to delight any budding chef, offering a stylish and inviting space in which to prepare leisurely breakfasts, relaxed lunches and memorable suppers using the finest local produce.

Gather around the wooden dining table and enjoy the simple pleasure of good food and good company, with the ever-changing creekside views providing a quietly beautiful backdrop to your day.

Just off the kitchen, a practical utility room adds ease to your stay and also includes an additional large shower and WC, ideal after muddy walks, time on the water or days spent exploring the coast.

Beyond, the separate living room offers a wonderfully cosy retreat, with ample seating for everyone to come together, whether for afternoon tea beside the crackling fire, a quiet moment with a favourite book or a film as evening settles in.

A central staircase rises to the first floor, where two beautifully dressed bedrooms continue the sense of comfort and understated luxury that flows throughout the cottage.

The principal bedroom offers a king-size bed and lovely views towards the river, creating a peaceful place to wake slowly and savour the tranquillity of the setting.

The second bedroom can be arranged either as a king-size double or twin room, giving flexibility for couples, friends or families holidaying together.

Completing the upper floor, the contemporary family bathroom offers the perfect setting for a little holiday indulgence, with an elegant oval bath for long, restorative soaks and a refreshing shower to rinse away the day after time spent on the water.

Pull back the tri-fold doors from the kitchen and step out into the peaceful garden, where a small lawn and outdoor dining area create a wonderfully tranquil setting for life outdoors.

From sunny breakfasts in the fresh morning air to hearty evening barbecues as the light softens over the creek, this is a place to slow down and savour the quiet beauty of your surroundings.

For an even more special start to the day, wander down to Point Quay just opposite the cottage with your morning coffee in hand, where the ebb and flow of life on the tidal creek becomes part of the magic of staying at Pandora Cottage.

Point is a true haven for watersports lovers, with kayaks, canoes, paddleboards and small boats all taking to the water to explore the peaceful inlets, wildlife and natural beauty of Restronguet Creek.

At high tide, the creek fills with calm water and offers an irresistibly tempting place for a gentle swim, adding to the sense of freedom and connection to the landscape that makes this setting so special.

Perfectly placed on Cornwall’s south coast, Pandora Cottage also makes an exceptional base for days out, whether you are drawn to the small city charm of Truro or the cosmopolitan maritime atmosphere of Falmouth, with its bustling waterfront, excellent restaurants and smart marina.

From Falmouth, hop on the passenger ferry to St Mawes and discover the beauty of the Roseland Peninsula, or take the scenic route aboard the King Harry Ferry and drive into one of Cornwall’s most enchanting and unspoilt corners.

For families and guests seeking adventure, there is plenty to enjoy nearby, from hiring canoes and small boats at Loe Beach Watersports to cycling the wooded tracks of the Bissoe Valley.

If you would like to bring your own boat, a mooring can also be arranged, making it beautifully easy to embrace life on the water throughout your stay.

A number of lovely beaches are within easy reach too, including Gyllyngvase in Falmouth, Porthcurnick, Swanpool and Maenporth, each offering its own character and charm.

For dining out, The Old Quay Inn is within a twenty-minute walk and offers a warm welcome and delicious Cornish fare, while the much-loved Pandora Inn on the opposite side of the creek makes a wonderfully memorable destination, especially if you arrive by paddle at high water.

From summer stays spent relaxing beside the river to winter weekends exploring this beautiful stretch of Cornwall, Pandora Cottage offers a luxurious and deeply restorative escape in every season.
