Cottage in Empacombe, Mount Edgcumbe

Our lovely historical cottage is located on the Rame Peninsula in a small waterside hamlet with a harbour. The castle wall entrance gates and Victorian walled gardens are signs of its former life as the Head Gardeners Cottage on Mount Edgcumbe estate. The space Empacombe is a pretty little Cornish Hamlet on the Mount Edgcumbe Estate. It is right on the waterfront of the Hamoaze Estuary and is accessed via a long private driveway. Bay Cottage and Bay Stables are both hidden behind a tall Castle like wall which was built in 1788 to protect the soft fruit, flowers and vegetables which were grown for the manor house at Mount Edgcumbe. There are hints of its former industrious past with Victorian walled gardens and the remains of greenhouses etc. Both Cottages have very large gardens and private off-road parking. Guest access Bay Cottage is accessed via the main Castle wall and Bay Stables has separate access via a back entrance. Both gardens are totally separate from each other. Of course there is the possibility to rent the whole place.
