Walkers are spoilt for choice and can pick up the South West Coast Path in both directions. The calm sheltered bay is perfect for swimming, canoeing or paddle boarding.

Mount Edgcumbe’s country park starts at the top of the village and you can walk to the famous 16th century house and visit its beautiful gardens. Take a ferry from Cawsand beach to the historic Barbican in Plymouth or from Cremyll to The Royal William Yard, buzzing with restaurants and artisan shops. Locally, there are five pubs, three coffee shops and a choice of
places to eat in the evening.

    A cosy getaway in a beautiful location. Crow’s Nest had all that we needed for a short break away. Great to explore some of the surrounding area with some excellent walk info sheets to help us plan our outings. Coffee from The Old Bakery was a highlight, as was the outdoor bath!

    My wife and I spent a week in the rental on a family holiday in Cornwall. The cottage was absolutely perfect for us and would recommend to any couple. It is cosy and nicely designed. Highlights are of course the views and terrace area outside. It is quite small with limited storage space for clothes etc but we easily stored them under the bed. And make sure you are ok to climb the 66 steps up to the cottage a few times a day :)

    A perfect place to relax with stunning panoramic views over the sea. The terrace is a great place to sit and unwind, with the outdoor bath and added treat. The cabin is tastefully decorated right down to the fabulous Cornishware pottery. Can't recommend highly enough.

    It is small but extremely well laid out. Just right for a short break and the car parking local was cheap and good.

    The property was very cosy, and the view is worth the price alone. Nick was extremely helpful. Definitely planning on another visit in future!

    Lovely little lodge in the heart of cawsand bay, the locals were all wonderful and we really enjoyed exploring the area and all along the coast. I would highly recommend if you want a few days away from the hustle and bustle of city life!

    Been visiting the Crow's Nest for several years now and never get tired of the brilliant view across Plymouth Sound. Kingsand and Cawsand always welcoming with friendly residents and decent pubs. Great network of ferries for easy access to Plymouth and trips down the Tamar. I'll be back next year, as long as I can still climb those steps!

    We really enjoyed our stay at the Crow’s Nest. It is a great location with lovely views from the cabin and close to the village and beaches. We enjoyed being able to take walks in the nearby countryside. A very relaxing and refreshing time

    The chalet is delightful and beautifully situated. All it lacks is a wardrobe, though its hard to see where one could be fitter in the bedroom. If a couple want a real break from the hassle this is absolutely ideal and we will rebook.

    The Crows Nest was a sweet, comfy, pretty, well appointed but oh so small property. Gorgeous views outweighed the fact that there were only a few hooks on the wall with clothes hangers to store your clothes. Kingsand and Cawsand were a delight. Good pubs & village shops, Cornish atmosphere, friendly locals & beautiful location. We had a lovely stay but it felt expensive. But that view was probably worth it.

    A wonderful unique place to stay. We fell in love with it on arrival. All the better for being slightly off the beaten track.
