About this dogs welcome cottage for up to 8 guests in Cornwall

Any families searching for a dog-friendly holiday home in Cornwall would do well to consider the Captain’s House in Downderry, Cornwall. The house stands in an elevated location overlooking the beach. Dogs are allowed on the beach all year round which is a boon to any holidaymakers who like to take their pets with them. The beach is natural grey sand with a sprinkling of shingle.

This holiday home is a spacious Victorian villa, traditionally furnished. The rooms have high ceilings with classical coving. Guests would enjoy fabulous sea views from the windows at the front of the house and gardens and countryside at the rear. An early morning walk and paddle on the beach, with or without a dog, could be a daily pleasure. A terrace with garden furniture in front of the property offers a lovely place to sit and people-watch from on high.

The house is spacious inside and rooms are on three separate floors, so not recommended for anyone with mobility problems. It would be an excellent seaside holiday home for families with primary or secondary school aged children and especially dog owners because up to three dogs are welcome.

Downderry is on the southern Cornish coast, about six miles before reaching Looe and Polperro. It is a small village that rises up the hill. The narrow roads are lined with white-washed coastal cottages, many of which are holiday homes, surrounded by semi-tropical palms and lush shrubbery. It has that sub-tropical seaside appearance that is typical of this part of the southwest English coast. There are a couple of pubs.

A holiday in this part of Cornwall can be as lazy as you like it with paddling and games on the beach, or you could venture out each day to enjoy the various visitor attractions. The small Cornish villages are always a delight as are the picturesque harbours. Cornish ice cream is very good, the fish and chips are fresh and tasty on the coast, there are Cornish pasties to try, cream teas and all that natural beauty to admire.
