Quay Cottage is the last in a short row of fishermen's cottages above the harbour, thirty steps from the quay. It has been a family's summer house for forty years and a home all year round before that, and it is the kind of place that is very hard to find in St Mawes: whitewashed, on three floors, with a terrace of its own over the water.
The sitting room has low beams, a woodburner in the granite fireplace and a window on the harbour. The kitchen behind it has sea green units, a butler sink and a stable door onto the terrace. There is a shower room on the ground floor.
Two bedrooms and a bathroom are on the first floor; the main bedroom looks straight out over the moored boats from the bed. The third bedroom is under the eaves on the top floor, with a skylight.
The terrace faces west across the Carrick Roads and gets the sun from lunchtime until it sets. The castle, the ferry to Falmouth and the village are all on foot.
