Due to its commanding position, in the Second World War the Fort House was used by the military as an observation post and even had the roof reinforced to protect it from an aerial attack, with two feet of concrete, making it bomb proof from enemy aircraft. With its historic harbour, rockpools and sandy beaches St Mawes provides the idyllic Cornish escape and The Fort House the perfect property in which to stay
This spacious and airy single storey holiday cottage sits in a private garden whose terrace provides uninterrupted views of the spectacular Cornish coastline. A short walk leads you in to the centre of the picturesque fishing village of St Mawes with its whitewashed cottages, galleries character pubs and restaurants.
