The Cottage
The ground floor consists of an entrance hall and kitchen, featuring a large dining table with bench seating. Two bedrooms and a bathroom are also tucked away off the entrance hall. Stairs lead up from the kitchen to a generous lounge on a mezzanine – high ceilings, exposed beams and double patio doors add light, space and intrigue to this room.
The lounge and decking outside benefit from breath-taking views of Bryher’s rugged silhouette across the channel. A further set of stairs take you from the lounge to a large landing, two bedrooms and bathroom.
Our Favourite Thing
Kittiwake has its own set of steps onto the powdery white sand of Farm Beach – begin your day with a paddle in the bordering crystal waters.
