Cousham Cottage
1342 is no longer with usIf you were looking for cottages like Cousham Cottage, how about trying these:
The Rame peninsula is known as the forgotten corner of south east Cornwall. Cawsand and Kingsand are adjoining villages and Cousham Cottage is found in one of the narrow picturesque lanes of Cawsand, less than a one minute walk from the sea and a local pub. This traditional, terraced, Listed cottage is documented as a smugglers’ haunt and there is still a tunnel (now blocked off) leading from a cupboard on the stairs to a nearby former inn. Unexpectedly spacious inside, the many original beams, low lintels (please take care if tall), steps here and there and winding stairs add to the cottage’s historic atmosphere. The open plan living area on the ground floor has a chintz floral sofa and chairs, dark oak furniture and an attractive fireplace. The kitchen-area, again with dark oak cupboards and red tiling, is roomy and well-equipped. A prettily-planted raised rear patio with decking (accessed from steep stairs) provides a totally sheltered sun-trap from which you can hear and catch a glimpse of the sea.
