About this property

Luxury Apartment with Spectacular sea views Close to Boscastle/Tintagel

As we only acquired this lovely property in 2017, there are not lots of revues yet, but from the numerous wonderful revues we have had so far, and with the many improvements that we are continuing to make, we are confident that Little Quoit will be even more popular. With stunning sea views towards Rocky Valley and Bossiney Cove, this self contained ground floor accommodation set mid way along the coast road between Boscastle and Tintagel, with access to the Coast Path and the beautiful St. Nectans Glen close by, has much to offer.
It is bright and spacious and with those breath-taking sea views from this elevated position, Little Quoit is an ideal base for exploring the North Coast. Spectacular cliff top walks, picturesque harbours and villages, Bodmin Moor and beautiful sandy beaches all nearby.
Approached by a short lane, there is off road parking and a pathway leading to the rear door to the property, which opens into the kitchen. The kitchen has everything you would wish for. Plenty of cupboard space, a large fridge/freezer, microwave oven, electric oven & hob, dishwasher, we have tried to think of everything, so you will lack for nothing. From the kitchen window you look out onto a particularly attractive feature heather garden.
From the kitchen you then enter an inner hall way which takes you to the rest of the very spacious rooms.
The Lounge/Dining room is bright and sunny and has a very attractive and comfortable lounge suite , dining table and chairs, a cabinet with books, DVD's and games, TV and DVD player. The views from this room are wonderful, because you not only have the sea view to the distant horizon but can look down towards the beautiful Rocky Valley and Lye Beach and watch the waves crashing on the rocks. Patio doors from this room take you into a delightful double glazed conservatory with more comfortable seating and those same fabulous views. A door from the conservatory takes you out to the patio & garden where there is more seating, giving the opportunity of al-fresco dining if required.
The Bedroom is also a good size and features a beautifully carved oak Four Poster bed, the same fabulous views of sea and cliffs and plenty of wardrobe and storage space. We have also provided another TV. for those that like to watch telly in bed
The shower room is also very spacious, but no bath, just a shower, toilet and wash basin with bathroom cabinet over. There is an airing cupboard there with plenty of towels.
Outside there is a large garden, mainly lawns with flower borders and a rustic table and benches for your use.
We are told by our visitors, that Little Quoit does not live up to it's name, because it is very spacious and we are also often told it is one of the best equipped and, more important is very homely. That is because we have not just furnished it with the bare essentials of a rental property. We have provided much more, because we want you to love it and to want to return. The return bookings, so far, for next year, prove we must be doing something right.

Fabulous place.

Amazing place to stay, it was spotless, the view was amazing. The position of the cottage was just right for walking and exploring, and not far from anywhere to drive to. The hosts Nick and Liz are lovely friendly and very welcoming. When we arrived there was a lovely cream tea waiting for us plus, a pint of milk so we could make ourselves a cup of tea. There was also a lovely bottle of wine and a bowl of fruit, we couldn’t have asked for more from them. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would 100% recommend it to anybody looking for a nice peaceful getaway with views you could die for.

Exceptional luxurious appartment with fabulous views

This is a really beautiful apartment in a fabulous location and the views are amazing. There were so many unexpected extras that I really appreciated - the bottle of wine, freshly made scones with clotted cream and jam, and even a bowl of fresh fruit. Nick and Liz were very welcoming and ensured that the apartment was warm when I arrived. Wonderful walks along the coastal path which is only across a couple of fields, and I also enjoyed the walk to the nearby woodland glen and waterfall. I will definitely be back!

A coastal haven

On arrival I was so impressed with the space and facilities provided. Cream tea and a bottle of wine both very welcome after a long drive. The facilities are excellent and beautifully presented. Fully equipped kitchen, shower room, a 4 poster bedroom with sea view, large lounge, also with sea view, and sun room, all self contained with ample parking and easy access. The view of the coastline is just great. I could sit and watch the waves and listen to the distant surf for ages. Venturing out was amazing, with cliff walks to Tintagel and Boscastle a great day out, and a walk up St Nectan’s Glen a lovely gentle experience. Rocky Valley itself is charming and isolated with some amazing views from the mouth of the cove. I didn’t feel the need to get the car out all week, especially as the coastal bus stops right at the gate. Much has changed (mostly me!) in the 40 years since my last visit to Rocky Valley, but the essential charm of the coast, nature and hills is still beautiful, remote, but accessible. Your genial and helpful hosts live on site.

An absolute gem in North Cornwall

We had a fantastic time and give a massive thanks to Nick and Liz. It was unexpected to have a selection of treats on arrival. The scones with the cream tea were delicious and a lovely bottle of wine to relax and watch the scenery. We had the strawberries and fruit for breakfast. Everything was spotless and there was an extensive range of kitchen utensils which was greatly appreciated as we like to cook on holiday. Looking at the photos of the interior they do not convey the generous amount of space in all the rooms, and the bed was the most comfortable, away from home (we use a foam based mattress at home), that we have slept in. Wi-fi was strong so we could plan our day trips easily. Our stay coincided with the June 2023 heatwave and a good part of our days were spent in the conservatory reading, crafting and watching the wildlife, as well as the variety of camper and caravan entering the site road opposite (never noisy or intrusive). From early evening, it was very quiet with just the twittering of the birds and the swallows chasing the evening insects. Nick and Liz were only next door should we have needed anything, but everything was just perfect for a relaxing holiday. Looking to return next year hopefully

About the host

Hosted by Liz or Nick Leeds

Host profile image
Born in Gloucester in 1945 my early childhood was spent in the village of Sandhurst where I was raised to be a country lover and have retained that love of nature, wildlife and particularly birds throughout my life. We moved into the city of Gloucester when I was ten and I attended a very Dickensian Junior school called the National, long since thankfully demolished. From there I attended the Central Technical School for boys and was glad to leave after taking GCE exams and took a summer job in Great Yarmouth, as a waiter in a restaurant. I found that I enjoyed catering very much and at the end of the season went back to Gloucester and took a job for the winter at the Fleece Hotel .
I continued this for a few years and then changed direction, going into sales. After a few years I was able to start my own business selling freezers. (Home Refrigeration Co.Ltd) which developed into a small chain of frozen food centres as well. In 1976 I moved to Cornwall to take over the Tolcarne Hotel in Boscastle and sold the business in Glos.
It was here that I met my darling wife, Liz and after 2 previous failed marriages felt that at last I had found the right one.( We now have 6 grown-up children between us, numerous grand children and 3 great grandchildren and it is wonderful when we all get together.) In 1982, I purchased Willapark at Bossiney and converted it into a beautiful Hotel which Liz and I ran, very successfully, for over 20 years . On retiring in 2005 we purchased Herons Lake, in the Camel Valley and after 13 very enjoyable years there, were able to return here to the Boscastle area which we love. Just before selling the Hotel, we also purchased a beautiful villa on the lovely Island of Lanzarote, so spend most of the winter there, although we do not go as much now. We have been letting this out for holidays as well and it has become so popular, that it needs to be booked well in advance. This is also shown on www.homeaway.co.uk and the property no. is 1481781

Why they chose this property

My wife, Liz, was born in Boscastle and I have lived and had a business here for over 30 years. When we sold our hotel and retired we wanted to find somewhere in this area that would replace what we were losing when we sold. Particularly the view. There was nothing available at the time but 13 years later we feel so lucky that The Quoit became available and that Little Quoit came with it was an added bonus. We still have much to do in Little Quoit and plan to bring it to a very high standard. We have had a lot of experience with the villa and if you view the reviews on that site, it will give an insight as to what we wish to achieve here. Somewhere that feels like home, that people want to return to again and again. A place where you can totally relax and which provides everything you would wish for.



My Wife, Liz, was born in Boscastle and I have lived and had a business here since 1976. When we sold the business we wanted to find somewhere in the area to replace what we were leaving, albeit on a smaller scale. We could find nothing to suit, properties with sea views don't come on the market too often. So, 13 years later we felt we were so lucky when The Quoit became available and that Little Quoit came with it was a real bonus.










.omewhere that tries to provide everything you could possibly need.

What makes this property unique

From the first moment we went into Little Quoit, it felt like home. We have done very much more to make it feel even more so. We particularly love the view. Being able to look out at the sea every day, with all its changing moods is very special.and the sunsets are spectacular.
As a keen ornithologist and nature lover, our situation is perfect. To have the Coast Path on our doorstep and Rocky Valley & St. Nectan's Glen nearby is wonderful. As well as all the wonderful bird life we see, we also
love to go to a relatively unknown beauty spot up the coast where there is a seal colony. We have spent many happy hours on the cliffs observing them and at low tide we can usually count over a hundred.
