Property Description

Wake to sweeping views across the Salt Path towards Downderry and Looe, with the glittering sea stretching before you and the vibrant city of Plymouth shimmering on the horizon. Lodge 58a at Whitsand Bay Fort is a beautifully presented, 42ft x 20ft three-bedroom holiday lodge, an exceptional opportunity to own a piece of one of Cornwall's most coveted clifftop locations, whether as a private retreat, a buy-to-let investment, or the very best of both.

The Setting

Nestled on the unspoilt clifftops of Whitsand Bay, the Fort sits just minutes from the South West Coast Path and the legendary golden sands below. Inside the park, luxury lodges are set amongst rolling lawns and mature trees, peaceful, private, and utterly removed from the everyday. With a 12-month holiday licence, this is a year-round escape, open 52 weeks of the year.

The Lodge

Constructed to BS-3632, the residential standard for build quality and insulation, Lodge 58a has been finished and furnished to an exceptionally high standard throughout. Step through the composite entrance door into a welcoming inner hallway and through to a large, light-filled open-plan kitchen, living and dining area that forms the heart of the home.

The fully fitted kitchen is equipped for those who love to cook and entertain: Carron Phoenix sink with swan neck tap, electric oven and ceramic hob, stainless steel chimney extractor hood, integrated dishwasher, integrated 70/30 fridge-freezer and a wine cooler. The dining area seats six comfortably, while the living space offers a three-seater sofa, two-seater sofa bed, armchair and footstool arranged around a coffee table and wall-mounted electric fire, the perfect setting for relaxed evenings with a view.

Two sets of French doors open onto a generous decking area with ample space for outdoor furniture and a BBQ. This is where Lodge 58a truly comes into its own: the views across the Cornish coast and countryside are simply breathtaking at every hour of the day.

Fort Facilities

Ownership at Whitsand Bay Fort grants access to an outstanding range of on-site amenities.

Ownership Costs & Practicalities
