I've seen a mix of explanations around how much guests are overlooked by the Coastguards next door . . . the fact is the Coastguards are there from 9am to 6pm (5pm in winter) every day. there are generally 2 or 3 of them. They are on 3-hour shifts. They definitely, clearly overlook the outside terrace - including the hot tub and could see inside the accommodation if they chose to - they open their window so you can also hear their conversations. As it happens, they are a lovely friendly bunch, and keep themselves busy with the task at hand. I enjoyed having them next door and never felt exposed. It's a pleasant little quirk. But people need to make an informed decision. It's right opposite a popular tourist attraction. And has a carpark just behind it. People come and go all day - even into the early hours. Some forget to turn their car radios off, or have loud conversations as the walk past. I didn't mind too much, but assumed it was a touch more 'remote' than it actually was. All in all, it's stunning. a 45 minute stroll to a costal village in one direction and a 20 minute stroll to coves and beaches in the other. The views across the channel are spectacular. ...

A beautiful place to stay for a romantic break or “get away from it all” break. Fantastic views looking out to sea and sunsets on your doorstep. Lots of nature and wildlife to see with plenty of trails to walk and hike direct from Rames Head. Say good morning to the ponies who come and say hello morning and evening whilst sitting in the garden or enjoying your morning coffee looking out over the headland from the comfort of the front room. Beaches, pubs and restaurants only a short walking distance from Rames head. Easy access to the rest of Cornwall from this location. A little less private than expected, with a working coast guard station directly next door during the day with one of their look out windows, looking directly out over the garden area. Fantastic spot if you’re a star gazer. Very little light pollution. Property fully equipped. ...

The view what a place . Coast path on your door step .Wild ponies walking past even the deer came up to the fence line in the morning . And don't forget the friendly cost guards next door .Parking right by the door .Under floor heating works well and as to the little log burner great for those cold nights just after getting out the hot tub . The place is small and well thought out . Take a walk along the coastal path in to Cawsand for a spot of lunch in the bay restaurant where your dog is looked after as well as you. Further walk on to Mount Edgcombe estate for a cuppa and a bit to eat in the orangery or a pint in the pub just before the ferry . Question would we go back? yes yes and yes !...

We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year at Rame Head, the views (on a clear day) are stunning. I sat for many an hour gazing out to sea & watching the ponies walk past. The kitchen is excellently equipped, even scales and a cake tin should you want to bake! The dishwasher was appreciated too, a luxury for me. The TV is in the bedroom, (we knew this beforehand), so took our small tv with us so we could watch a movie whilst sitting in front of the log burner. The hot-tub was fab too, we used it every day. Loads of excellent walks right on the doorstep. We will more than likely return in the future ?? ...

Beautiful location with stunning views but a complete lack of privacy due to adjoining coastguard station
