To stay in Fern Cottage was magic. We loved sitting on the landing upstairs and watching the harbour. It’s a lot more private up there. The passing tourists are annoying, especially when they come up the front steps and hang around, leaning on the dining room window.

Had a lovely few days here. A couple of issues promptly sorted by Shirley. Lovely property with beautiful views of the harbour in a great position.
Very warm with everything you need. Didn’t attempt the parking but did drive around to drop the luggage off and parked in the top car park about a five minute walk up a hill (can take a more scenic sea view route that is flatter but takes longer) although apart from the tight opening at the end of the street it wasn’t as bad as I feared - small car better
Expect a lot of people taking photos outside but it wasn’t a problem and quite amusing
Would stay again

We were so happy to rent Doc Martins cottage for 3 nights. It was worth driving the very narrow roads to get to Port Isaac. We were glad to have a parking spot. The cottage is close to restaurants and trails. Nespresso pods thoughtfully provided as most shops aren't open early for coffee. Chapel Cafe a few doors down is wonderful. Don't miss dinner at the Mote on the harbor.

Our motivation for staying here was to have that iconic view and just have that "feel good" that the Doc Martin series provides. It really was surreal to stay in "the surgery". Due to the expense, it will be a "once and done" experience for us, although we'd like to return to Port Isaac and stay elsewhere.
The layout of the cottage makes excellent use of the available space and the interior decorating is lovely. We enjoyed views of the harbor from every living space. The garden gives an even better perspective.
You must rent with the understanding that there will be a constant stream of visitors who walk by, chat, and take pictures of the house, and they may not always stay off the terrace.
Although we didn't cook dinners, there were plenty of pots and pans and dishes to do so. We put the microwave, electric kettle, fridge, and toaster to good use. The heated towel rack was unexpected, and we were happy to be able to do laundry.
The house is centrally located, and a small car can be parked out front. Be careful of stinging nettles when loosing the chain across the terrace. Also, the lockbox is on the back side of the house. The front door locks by turning the handle up and then using the key/lock mechanism. The heaters have individual controls.
Shirley was responsive to all of our questions and concerns and made the stay easy. I can fully recommend Shirley and Fern Cottage.

Absolutely beautiful property in a picture postcard village!
Warm and comfortable, beautifully furnished and with views to die for.
The Landlady couldn’t have been mote helpful with tips and suggestions to give us a perfect stay.
Even when the weather (Storm Ciàran) hit! It was a perfect snug bolthole to watch the storm, drink tea and enjoy!
Can’t fault it!

Two adults and a 2.5 year old stayed 4 nights in October 2023. We loved it. The location is terrific and the home itself is lovely. It was very comfortable and warm/dry, which came in very handy for the chilly rainy evenings. Driving to the cottage wasn’t as difficult as we’d feared, though pretty tight in spots. We also enjoyed meeting folks coming to see the house and take photos because of Doc Martin. We met a lot of interesting and friendly folks this way.

Of course, this place is a must if you are a Doc Martin fan. It is clean and well cared for. The only draw back for me is that it is very musty. Not sure what you can do about that. Maybe a dehumidifier? We were easily able to air it out by opening all the windows, but were fortunate enough to have great weather that made that possible. I recommend this place for sure unless you have asthma or other breathing issues or allergies.
