| Strathdene, a typically slate-hung Cornish cottage, is very well
situated near the top end of the main street of the small and
immensely attractive fishing village of Kingsand. Forming part of
the Rame peninsula and merging with the adjoining village of Cawsand
below a wooded headland, Kingsand has an almost continental feel. It
is full of narrow streets, small and quirky cottages and unexpected
glimpses of the sea. The village has everything the holidaymaker
could need, including shops, pubs, restaurants, a delicatessen - and
very friendly people. There is a pleasant beach of sand and pebbles
with wide views of Plymouth Sound, and sea fishing from the rocks.
Close by to the east is Mount Edgcumbe Park with 800 acres of walks
and gardens; and access to Plymouth either by car via the Torpoint
ferry, or on foot from Cawsand to the Mayflower Steps (summer only).
To the west lies the huge sandy beach of Whitsand Bay with a growing
reputation for surfing - a children`s paradise. The South West
Coastal Path follows the headland; and for day excursions Anthony
House (NT) is nearby, as are both Looe and Polperro. The Eden
Project near St. Austell is not far down the coast.
Strathdene itself is a most attractive and inviting place to
stay. The bright and well decorated rooms are on three floors and
are surprisingly large, giving an unexpectedly spacious feel; and
the bedroom arrangement allows guests (up to a maximum of 7)
considerable flexibility of accommodation. The west facing courtyard
at the back of the cottage is a sun-trap well into the evening, and
for out of season holidays, the sitting room with its efficient
woodburner is extremely cosy. Strathdene is a wonderful base for
exploring this beautiful corner of south east Cornwall.
