Situated in a row of properties along aptly named Squeeze Belly Alley, renowned as one of the narrowest thoroughfares in Britain, Sam Billing Cottage is attractively presented and offers comfortable and well planned accommodation with a clever use of space - a perfect base for a couple or a small family. Port Isaac is an historic picturesque fishing village, which has now become even greater known for its role in the current TV programme Doc Martin as the fictional town of 'Port Wenn'.
