Roswarne House

Get the whole gang together to celebrate a special occasion at this resplendent 19th-century home in the historic town of Camborne. Sleeping 20 people over 10 bedrooms (the building is split up into five gorgeous apartments), this magnificent home was once owned by a sheriff, and its huge, high-ceilinged rooms are adorned with beautiful period features. When you’re not busy admiring the exquisite decor, head out to stroll through the bluebell woods at Tehidy Country Park, or go surfing at Mexico Towans Beach. In the evening, come home and host a sensational cocktail reception on the home’s stylish terrace.

Park up in your private parking space (there’s room for 10 vehicles) and take a moment to admire this magnificent building. Step inside and you’ll discover a grand entrance hall with a gorgeous handcrafted staircase, stone pillars, a grandfather clock and a huge ornate mirror – it really does have the wow-factor. The building’s five apartments are stretched out over both floors and they’re all decorated in a truly exquisite style with antique furniture, quirky artefacts and soft, rich furnishings. Expect period features aplenty and huge sash windows allowing in plenty of light from the well-preened garden, many of them dual- or even triple-aspect for an appealing effect. Treasures you’ll discover across the five apartments are a peaceful orangery, a four-poster bed, a Juliet balcony and a beautiful roll-top bath tub. Host sumptuous dinner parties and elegant cocktail evenings to remember in this exquisite period home, before retiring to your private apartment for a blissful night’s sleep. In the morning, head off for a pre-breakfast stroll around the lovingly-nurtured parkland.

Camborne is known for its tin mining past, so check out the local historic sites, like the Basset Monument (3 miles) or the King Edward Mine Museum (2 miles), which featured in the BBC’s Edwardian Farm. The hikers in your group will adore the coastal vistas from the South West Path (3 miles), while families will enjoy a trip to the Cornish Seal Sanctuary near Gweek (11.5 miles).
