Harbourside House is an impressive private residence at Empacombe Bay, a small waterside hamlet within the grounds of Mount Edgcumbe Estate, which encompasses the South West Coast Path. In a peaceful location on the outskirts of the park, Harbourside House is perfect for a relaxing holiday and exploring this fascinating area of Cornwall. Fallow Deer and other wildlife can occasionally be seen in the neighbouring woodland and a variety of birds frequent the small shingle beach, where children can have fun crabbing or paddling in their wellies at low tide.

Built in the 18th century and retaining many original features, Harbourside House is comfortable, welcoming and tastefully decorated. Arranged over three floors, colourful paintings and ornaments feature prominently throughout the house. There are fabulous estuary views from several rooms and in the evenings enjoy the magnificent sunsets. Lord Nelson is rumoured to have visited Harbourside House for secret liaisons with Lady Hamilton and to have watched his fleet of ships with his telescope through a small bedroom window!

Doors from the conservatory lead to a secluded garden with large gazebo, built-in barbecue and fabulous covered terrace, perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing whatever the weather. Steps lead to a huge, gently sloping lawn and orchard, with swing seats, hammocks and incredible views.

A visit to Mount Edgcumbe House is essential and Plymouth has numerous attractions for all ages, including the National Marine Aquarium, the Barbican, Plymouth Hoe and Plymouth Pavilions. Buckland Abbey and Pennywell Farm are fascinating and the fabulous beaches at Whitsand Bay, Rame and Cawsand are easily accessible.
