Property details

Rene`s Cottage is a thatched traditional fisherman`s cottage at the entrance to Cadgwith Cove. Henry Jane was one of those very fishermen and also coxswain of the Cadgwith lifeboat. He lived there many years with his wife Irene (Rene). You can relax in front of the glowing woodburner as the winter storms lash the cove and imagine the coxswain hearing the maroons from many of the wrecks that hit the rocks close by. You can also wake up here on a sunny morning and just listen to the seagulls and the waves outside – this is a carefully modernised iconic property close to the pub, restaurant, craft shops and beach from which the local fishing boats depart for sea. No holiday would be complete without sampling a freshly caught lobster or crab. This is a wonderful place to stay!

Liz and Andy, London Our third year at Rene's and we love it. The cottage is a great place to stay and the cove is one of our favourite places on earth! We had a pleasant time walking on the coastal path. Cornwall is such a beautiful place and we have been able to relax completely. PS - A new sofa would be appreciated.

A little gem of a place, Rene's has been sympathetically upgraded to cater for all modern needs yet retains all the original charm and character you would expect of a historic building of this period. After exploring the delights of Cornwall there's nothing nicer than sitting in front of the woodburner with a bottle of red wine - very cosy. It's also great that Rene's has its own private parking. Five star - loved it.
