Coachmans Cottage
This charming cottage has been enjoyed by the present owners and is now available to the market for the first time in over 50 years.
Stone-built, the cottage has attractive detailing including ornate wooden barge boards, and provides good sized family accommodation, however would now benefit from areas of refurbishment and modernisation.
Situated off of the popular Castlehaven Lane, Coachmans Cottage is accessed off of a private shared driveway and has an easily maintained area of garden extending to the western side of the cottage as well as off road parking for two cars.
Nearby Castlehaven is a particularly attractive bay, great for swimming, snorkelling and paddleboarding; as well as being home to the popular True Food Kitchen outdoor restaurant. The surrounding coastline is also popular with surfers and kite surfers. There are excellent coastal walks directly accessible from the property including around nearby St Catherine’s Lighthouse as well as leading East towards other bays and coves such as Woody Bay and Orchard Bay.
