About this property
Tre Lowen is a charming property situated in the idyllic fishing village of Port Isaac, Cornwall. Boasting a stylish interior, contemporary appliances and a rear enclosed garden, this pet-friendly dwelling makes an ideal holiday base for families, friends and couples who fancy a Cornish retreat. Upon arrival, step into Tre Lowen and be welcomed by a homely atmosphere; get acquainted with the sitting room with a plush velvet sofa, a Smart TV for movie nights and a bay window to admire the views. For those who need a quiet space to catch up on work or check emails, there’s a study off the lounge which is all set up with monitors so that all you need to do is to plug in your laptops. Move through to the kitchen/diner, fully equipped with a gas range cooker, full-size fridge/freezer, washer/dryer and a dishwasher, sure to assist with your culinary needs. You can then head outside to the rear enclosed garden complete with a lawn and patio; the perfect spot to sit back with a glass of wine whilst your pooch roams the enclosed space. The little ones can find entertainment in the playroom, offering a selection of toys and a Smart TV. Venture upstairs and become familiar with the bedrooms, with the master offering a king-size bed with en-suite shower, whilst both of the doubles enjoy en-suites, and an adult bunk room with a separate bathroom completes the setup. Head out the door and explore Port Isaac; stroll along the historic harbour, surrounded by quaint cottages and overlooked by the ruins of a medieval chapel, creating a postcard-perfect setting that feels like a snapshot from a bygone era. Port Isaac gained fame as the fictional village of Portwenn in the television series ‘Doc Martin’, and the village's distinctive appearance, with its narrow streets and charming architecture, played a starring role alongside the show's characters. Wander down to the small beach and spend an afternoon watching the fishermen's boats coming into the harbour or take your exploration further as you catch a foot ferry across the Camel Estuary from Rock to the stunning harbour town of Padstow, a true foodie’s paradise. Whatever your preference, you’re sure to find activities to suit all ages in this stunning part of Cornwall, all which can be enjoyed from Tre Lowen.
Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. There is ample parking at the top of the village and the village is a popular tourist destination with plenty of attractions including the dramatic Doyden Castle, the beautiful Lundy Bay and the famous Doc Martin's clinic. There are also plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops in the village. Just a short drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike.

Wonderful that 3 bedrooms have en suite and a family bathroom in addition if you have children. Also have separate play room with TV for children or an adult quiet room. Everything is in the property they have thought of it all. Itâs a 10 from us and we certainly would recommend the property, especially if you want space and own en suite

The property is in a great location. We were able to explore the local area by foot and a short drive got us to some of our favourite beaches. The house was large and well equipped with the benefit of private parking. The only thing that let us down slightly was the British Weather.
