Harbour Views - Stay in a Polperro Landmark - Beautifully Restored - £150 discount on winter weeks

5 Star. Sleeps 8. 
The Shell House was originally constructed in the mid 19th century as a single fisherman's cottage. In the mid 20th century the form of the property was decorated with shells by a Samuel Puckey. Mr Puckey was a retired naval man and decorated the property using his lifetime's collection of shells from around the world. He started work in 1937 and it apparently took him five years to complete. 
The cottage has been returned to one dwelling by the owners and in the process a complete refurbishment has created an exceptionally luxurious and spacious home. A very high level of finish and attention to detail in both the conversion and subsequent furnishing of the cottage have created a superb property for those wanting the very best the village has to offer. 
The large kitchen/diner on the ground floor is comprehensively equipped and features a log burner, Cornish slate flooring and brand new kitchen. There is a solid oak dining table and chairs for meals in but Polperro boasts many restaurants, pubs and eateries if you wish to dine out.
