About this property

Only 200 yards from the beach with magnificent sea and coastal views, this charmingly decorated semi-detached double-glazed Victorian house is set above the coast road, in the unspoilt village of Downderry.

Approached by a flight of walled and gated steps that lead directly up from the road, there is a delightful paved and flower filled sun terrace overlooking the sea. The front door opens to a long hallway and to one side is a light and airy sitting room dominated by a bay window with stunning panoramic sea views. At the further end of the hall is a games room/children's bedroom with 3ft pine bunk beds, casual seating and a selection of games equipment.

In an extension to the original house at the rear, there is an L shaped fitted kitchen with a tiled floor and a wide open arch leading to a bright breakfast room with pine dining table and French doors to a small service courtyard.

Stairs lead up from the hall to a half landing and a bathroom W.C. with hand basin and shower over the bath. Half a dozen steps then continue up to the first floor and two pleasant bedrooms; a master bedroom with a 6ft bed and wonderful sea views from a large bay window and the other bedroom at the rear has two single beds and painted wooden floorboards.

A second flight of carpeted stairs continue up to the top floor and a spacious bedroom with a double and single bed, stunning sea views from two large dormer windows and an en-suite bathroom W.C. with hand basin, bath and shower cubicle.

At the rear of the property, a gated flight of 30 railed steps lead up to the elevated garden built into the hillside with a terraced lawn and children's playhouse, and 10 further steps up to a gravel patio which enjoys a birds eye view over the rooftops to the sea. Young children will require supervision.

There is unrestricted parking on the road outside and all the village amenities including a car park, shop/P.O., pub, cafe and restaurant are just a five minute walk. The beach is a couple of minutes walk downhill as is the South West Coast Path. Seaton, 1 mile west, has an excellent beach cafe and a lovely two mile nature walk through Seaton Valley Countryside Park. Crafthole Reservoir has coarse fishing 3 miles away and there are golf courses nearby at Looe and Portwrinkle. Diving is available at the artificial diving reef, Scylla, in Whitsand Bay and a selection of boat trips depart from the harbour in Looe, 8 miles.

Please note: Out of school holiday periods there is a discount available to parties of 4 or less. Please contact our office for details.

  • Mr P Mills

    Victoria Villa is in a wonderful location, close to the beach and the pretty village of Seaton with a wonderful cafe. The cottage itself is comfortable and feels really homely. We stayed with friends, between us we had 3 small children who loved the playroom and front terrace. And who all slept well every night thanks to the sea air and Cornish fun!

    The best view from any property we have ever stayed in, the house was extremely comfortable and well equipped, we had no complaints at all and had a lovely stay - thank you.
