The patio overlooks the harbour.
After a day exploring this stunning part of the Cornish coastline, come back to The Shippen to unwind and relax.
You will never tire of looking at the view every time you step outside the front door.
The cottage has two charming bedrooms.
The open plan living-room will make for a sociable holiday.
The small kitchen has all that you need, but with so many choices of places to eat in Boscastle, why tie yourself to the stove- you are holiday after all!
The Shippen has a coal-effect electric fire - perfect for those out-of-season breaks.
The stairs lead up from the living-area.
Bedroom one has a super comfy double bed.
The single bedroom.
The setting really is very special.
The Shippen is the middle of the three cottages and has parking in front of the white garage. The parking is not suitable for SUVs, 4x4s or Estate cars.
The view down the river to the sea from the small stone bridge which you cross to access the property.
The view towards the harbour from the patio.
A view towards the village of Boscastle. The Shippen is tucked away on your right-hand side.
A view towards the harbour and the stunning clifftops.
The award winning Farm Shop and Cafe - pop in for some fresh provisions or treat yourself to morning coffee... or maybe a wonderful lunch whilst you sit back and enjoy the view!
Boscastle's dog-leg harbour leads out to the open sea.

We see this cosy cottage as our 'home from home'. I have been booking it since 2009 and it is perfection. My husband and family adore coming here and always find it totally relaxing .....whatever the weather.

Thanks to Becky, everything was well-prepared! And thanks to the owners for a cosy place to spend our holidays. Everything we needed, we have found, as well in the house as in the surrounding.

I had a great stay at the Shippen. I immediately felt at home. It's location is amazing with easy access to the shops in Boscastle as well as the coast path. The small terrace outside is perfect to sit out and people watch and is such as a sun trap. I will definitely return to this cottage ...
