It’s hard to describe just how perfect this house is.
Firstly its location. It’s an old pilchard palace so it rises up from the rocks on the seashore. Which means that you look out of its huge picture windows ( with delightful window seats) directly onto the sea and skies. And with the windows open you hear the lapping of the waves to lull you to sleep. It’s placed right on one of the little bays of the village of the charming old village of Kingsand, right next to , in a beautifully quiet part of Cornwall. It’s literally a two minute walk to the beach down the smuggler’s passageway, and the owners have provided a kayak for their guest’s entertainment. It was lovely pootling around the bay in it. The village has great pubs doing great food, and shops including a fabulous bakery a minute’s walk from the house. There is lovely walking from the door, including glorious walks along the coast path to Rame’s Head.
The house is big and airy, tastefully decorated with a fabulous large and well equipped kitchen. It oozes comfort with lovely luxe sofas, amazing beds, fabulous quality bed linen and lovely art. There are also lovely thoughtful touches like Noble Isle toiletries for every guest.
We have just had three glorious days and have come back feeling refreshed and reinvigorated and longing to go again ! We couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
A truly magical place with picture windows framing the sea and extraordinary light that pours through. Wonderful coastal walks, swims in sea, kayaking and fantastic pubs and eateries all around . The best of Britain at its best x
We have just spent Christmas week at No.3 The Old School House and what an absolute joy it was. I had been following the property’s Instagram account for a while (we live fairly near Kingsand and Cawsand) and had been impressed with what it could offer guests for a stay right on the sea and in the heart of the village. It is a wonderfully warm, welcoming, cosy house (beautifully decorated for the festive season while we were there) with a real ‘home from home’ feel to it. I was a bit worried about cooking a Christmas dinner in a ‘strange’ kitchen, but I really need not have been concerned as it was extremely well equipped with everything that we needed. The views from the kitchen/diner, lounge and main bedrooms were just stunning – each day offering up a different vista with changing skies and seascapes. I’m not sure I’ve ever stayed anywhere more relaxing and, indeed, soporific, the ultra comfy sofas and beds being conducive to a good night’s sleep or snooze. The other big plus about this accommodation is its proximity to some fab pubs and eating places (especially The Devonport Inn), delightful beaches, and rugged coastal path walks. We highly recommend this property – the owners are very responsive to any communication and go out of their way to ensure your stay is a successful one.
An amazing week in a wonderful house in Cawsands .
Nothing was missing
And a superb location overlooking the sea
Can’t recommend this house enough
We spent a wonderful October half-term week at No.3 The School House. The house is spacious, warm, super comfortable and very well equipped. We were a mixed friends and family group aged from 10 – 78 years + dog! Cawsand was the perfect place for us – great access to lovely local beaches and excellent walks. We were also blessed with incredible weather every day so we even managed swimming! A big thank you to our hosts Edward and Nina. We sincerely hope to return.
we had a great time, we Segwayed at mt.Edgecmbe again went to Plymouth and had lunch at Rockfish which was brilliant.
The weather was amazing all week and got some great pictures. Also even though we ate at the Bay and Devonport a couple of times we had a great breakfast at the bakers the Friday we came home.
Alfie rarely out of the sea and all had a wonderful time
Thank you!
We had the most wonderful weekend here and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. The house is beautiful and decorated to such a high standard. It’s made so special by the views and access to the water and the local area has amazing walks, great pubs and local shops. All you need for the perfect Cornish retreat. I can’t wait to come back already. Thank you!
What a find!! This property was amazing, beautifully decorated, in a stunning location – I don’t think we have ever had such a wonderful break which met the needs of us the parents and our teenage girls. Access to the water and beach made kayaking, paddle boarding and swimming so easy and there were beautiful walks straight from the front door in all directions. Edward the owner provided such good information prior to us arriving that we could book restaurants for dinner and there was a wealth of information in the house to fill many weeks of a holiday. We’ll be back very soon :0)
I can quite honestly say that we had the most fabulous week staying at No.3 The Old School House at the start of the school holidays. The weather was quite kind all things considered! It really didn’t spoil the holiday. What can I say about the property? Absolutely fabulous. Thank you To Edward and Nina for their generosity in sharing it with others. I don’t think we have ever stayed somewhere that felt like being in a postcard ourselves. We didn’t move the car all week. So convenient for lovely walks and water sports as well as great places to eat. It really was a privilege.
This was our second stay in this beautiful Cawsand house, and it was every bit as perfect as we remembered. Immaculately clean, stylish, and with the most stunning views. The location is unbeatable — less than a minute to the beach where the kids spent hours bodyboarding and swimming in the sea together. We can’t wait to come back again!

As always it was such a pleasure to spend some time at No.3 The Old Schoolhouse. Our whole family enjoyed the lovely house, sea air, bracing dips, wonderful walks and the spectacular views. This is a very lovely, special place to be together and to relax. We would highly recommend for family or friends as a true ‘getaway’ from it all in super surroundings.
