A coastal retreat with unforgettable sea views

Welcome to Oystercatcher Cornwall

A relaxed coastal home for families and friends to slow down, spend time together, and soak in the sea air.

Perched above the picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey, Oystercatcher is a quietly inviting contemporary coastal home. With its reverse living layout, endless sea views pour in through wall to wall windows, morning light moves slowly across wooden floors, and life settles into a gentler rhythm.

Designed with simplicity and comfort in mind, the house opens itself up to the landscape — offering a peaceful retreat that’s both relaxed and quietly special. Whether it’s days on the beach, salty swims, cliff walks, or time spent gathered around the table, Oystercatcher is the kind of place that’s easy to settle into — and hard to leave.

Whether you’re reconnecting with family or catching up with friends, this is a place for simple pleasures and shared moments. The kind that stay with you.

The Living Space

On the first floor, the living area is flooded with natural light — open and simply styled with a laid-back coastal feel. There’s a wood-burning stove set into a stone hearth with a driftwood mantle, and comfy sofas to settle into after a day outdoors. Large windows frame the sea views, bringing the outside in. A large rustic oak dining table sits at the heart of the room — perfect for family meals and board games. It’s a calm, comfortable space that’s easy to feel at home in. There’s also a pool table for nights in.

Sliding doors open onto a balcony that runs the full width of the house — with glass balustrades to make the most of the view. It’s a peaceful place to sit with a book or a quiet drink and watch the light change over the sea.

The Kitchen

The kitchen area is bright, well-equipped, and easy to spend time in.There’s a large induction hob, oven, microwave, slow cooker, bean-to-cup coffee machine, dishwasher, and everything you might need for cooking at home. It’s a lovely place to cook, especially in the evening when the setting sun pours in, with people gathering around the island for a drink and a chat. Mornings are just as special — making coffee or breakfast while the sun rises over the water, filling the space with soft, early light.
