Seaview Cottage is found as the first property on the left hand side as you descend down Finngygook Lane towards Portwrinkle Beach. Portwrinkle is a charming and attractive coastal hamlet with south facing views across Whitsand Bay. Sitting on the eastern end of Cornwall’s south coast, between the estuary and the picturesque fishing port of , Portwrinkle is a quiet and tranquil spot enjoyed by locals and holidaymakers alike but is still one of Cornwall’s best kept secrets.

Portwrinkle itself has the impressive Whitsand Bay Hotel, a golf course with clubhouse and is only a short distance from the nearby villages of , Downderry and Seaton with the nearby fishing harbour at Looe providing shops, restaurants and daily fishing trips. The nearby River Tamar and its associated creeks provide superb sailing waters, boating facilities and yacht clubs. The nearest towns are Torpoint and both providing excellent shopping amenities with Saltash having one of only two Waitrose supermarkets within the county.

By crossing the Tamar Bridge or of course the Royal Albert Railway Bridge, designed by the iconic Isambard Kingdom Brunel, you will find the city of Plymouth which provides a wide range of leisure, commercial and retail facilities, excellent state and private schools and a mainline railway station providing a direct link to London Paddington with approximate travel time of 4½ hours. There are swift road links to the A38 which remains largely dual carriageway all the way to Exeter where it then joins with the M5 to Bristol and A303 to London.

The South West Coast Path is just a few yards away from Seaview Cottage and is the ’s longest unbroken footpath and this traces around the entire coastline of Cornwall. It is widely regarded as Britain’s best walking route.
