DescriptionSeagull Cottage is an exceptional, waterfront home that
provides fine living over two floors with direct access onto
the sandy beach. The property’s prized feature is its prime,
in-demand location on the beautiful Portreath seafront.
Significantly, the property owns the top part of the beach
as far as mean high water and the beach and property are
protected and sheltered by the sea wall at the far end of the
beach and harbour. Subject to separate negotiations with the
harbour masters it may be possible to rent a mooring within the
harbour. Seagull Cottage is located in the heart of the popular
north Cornish coastal village of Portreath within a quiet cull-de-
sac which lends an airy ambiance to the home, complemented
by a relaxing sea breeze. The property is also within easy
distance away from all shops and amenities.
The front door leads through a conservatory porch into the
open plan kitchen/breakfast room, offering a practical space
with all integral units. Beyond the kitchen is the sitting room
with lovely views across the beach and harbour to the sea
beyond. The sitting room has a rustic low ceiling, open electric
fire, and smooth wooden flooring leading through to the front
porch which, in turn, leads onto the front terrace above the
beach.
Stairs lead up from the sitting room to the first floor landing,
off which are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The bunk
bedroom and double bedroom enjoy spectacular views of the
beach, harbour and coast.
Outside, the front terrace is perfect for outside entertaining
and is situated directly above and beside the sandy beach. A
wooden gate at the front of the terrace leads directly onto the
beach, the first part of which is owned by the property. Seagull
Cottage also benefits from a detached, single garage.

North Cornish CoastPortreath is a charming village with a narrow harbour that was
once a busy port, importing coal and exporting copper. The
pretty, sandy beach is well protected from the sea by a harbour
wall and is popular with families. To the other side of the sea
wall the coastline is popular with surfers and in particular body-
boarders.
There are several shops and cafés in Portreath including
a natural therapy centre, surf shop, 3 pubs, supermarket,
bakery and junior school. The village has a very friendly
atmosphere and caters for most needs whilst not being over-
commercialised.
Some of the old tram-roads, used for transporting ore from
the mines, have been made into cycle paths and it possible
to cycle from Portreath on the north coast to Devoran on the
south coast. The surrounding countryside is good walking
country with beautiful views from the spectacular cliffs.
There are various sports and leisure facilities within a short
drive of the village. These include indoor swimming pools,
squash, badminton and outdoor bowls. There are six local golf
courses, one within a mile, and several centres for horse riding,
two with indoor facilities.
Tehidy Country Park is about a mile and a half from Portreath,
situated in a valley of one of the upper tributaries of the Red
River which flows into the sea near Gwithian. It is a beautiful
country park of around 250 acres. Most of the park is
woodland and there are around 9 miles of nature trails. Within
the park are also bridleways for horse riding and tracks for
mountain bikes.
