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.
