Explore the magical west coast of Cornwall from this delightful retreat near Whitecross. Situated 2.5 miles from Marazion, with its causeway across to the iconic tidal island of St Michael’s Mount, the gorgeous retreat makes a great place to unwind after trips out to the coast and country walks. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom cottage also welcomes canine companions and features a pretty courtyard garden for outdoor relaxation in the Cornish sunshine.
Enter this inviting retreat via the porch, where you can kick off your beach sandals or walking boots, to find the cottage has an open-plan, lounge/kitchen/diner, with a beamed ceiling, for you to enjoy. Head over to the sofa to settle back in front of the TV or read your book quietly for a spell. The kitchen area, which is up one step, is the perfect place to cook tasty breakfasts, lunches and dinners for your family or friends, and there is a table here for your holiday meals. The kitchen also features a handy washing machine for rinsing beach gear. Also downstairs is a family shower room. When you are ready to enjoy a good night’s sleep, climb the stairs up to the first floor to the king-size or the twin bedroom. Savour the summer warmth out in the delightful courtyard as you dine at the picnic table or have a cup of tea on one of the garden chairs. There is parking here for two cars.
Spend long sunny days on the sandy beach at Marazion, where you can paddle, swim and make castles on the sand. Stroll out to Michael’s Mount when the tide is out. Amble through Marazion itself, pondering in galleries and gift shops and pausing for afternoon tea. Visit St Ives, 6.5 miles away, with its many beaches and famous art galleries.
