Step back in time to the Age of Sail. This townhouse property, sized for a smaller family, is cleverly finished in French antique style with elegant furniture, subtle paint palette and pretty details to evoke another age. Within a mile is a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Charlestown Harbour, where many scenes in TV's Poldark series were filmed. Wander the 18th century stone quays and see tall ships and smaller traditional sailing craft. Charlestown has its own sandy beach, and you are perfectly placed to explore the South Cornish coast. This stone-built attached property has thoroughly modern kitchen and bathroom, but the living/dining room and bedrooms are furnished in a contrasting style with bags of character and memorable antique style feature pieces: a large ornate mirror, a sumptuously carved bedhead, a chaise longue. It's a coolly comfortable setting in which to relax and talk over the day's exploring over a meal at the round dining table. Charlestown Harbour is the main attraction here – you can see an ever-changing selection of traditional craft, often including majestic tall ships with their towering masts and intricate rigging. Visit the fascinating Shipwreck Museum to discover the perils of the seafaring life in past centuries, or stroll to the pretty town beach for a classic Cornish seaside experience. Further afield, the bustling harbour town of Fowey is 8 miles away for excellent shopping and dining, while breathtaking walks along the Polperro Heritage Coast section of the South West Coast Path start from Polkerris, within 6 miles.
