Willy Wilcox at Classy Cottages

Willy Wilcox, after whom the cottage was named, was a fisherman and was trapped by the sea, while bringing contraband into the cave, deep under the cottage.
This unique self catering cottage offers sea and beach. Views from every bedroom and reception room. Full of character, comfortable, snug and superbly equipped, it must be the most sought after holiday cottage in Cornwall. Not surprisingly, it will book for 52 weeks of the year. OUT OF SEASON all our cottages are priced for 2 people. During winter storms, heavy wooden shutters protect the windows, as the waves break on the rocks below. Inside, you are snug in front of a roaring log fire - safe behind thick stone walls, which have faced the sea and been the home for fishermen for centuries. There is a wonderful side terrace looking down onto the beach and out to sea. A Cornish Cream Tea awaits your arrival.

The cottage has a beautiful, cosy, beamed drawing room with a stone fireplace (a massive copper hood) and expansive views out to sea and over the harbour. The well equipped kitchen/dining room is right over the cave. There are 4 delightful bedrooms, all with subdued lighting.
The Beach Room, a 5\' double, on the South end of the cottage is closer to the sea than you would be in many lighthouses. A side door leads straight onto the elevated terrace above the beach. Tiptoe out in the moonlight and share a nightcap..... The Harbour Room is an en-suite 5\' double and overlooks the quay where the fishing boats unload their catches. The Quay Room is a small twin bedroom again overlooking the quay and with lovely views out to sea. The Boat Room, in the style of a ship\'s cabin, is adorned with many interesting ropes and buoys. In addition to the open fire, there is storage heating in all reception rooms and the main bedrooms. Other bedrooms have wall heaters.
