This West Cornwall holiday home for four guests and three canine companions is ideal for a quiet, countryside getaway with nearby coastline and attractions. With a garden, a wood burner in the lounge and a beach just a 10 minute drive away in Hayle, you’re set for a relaxing break. You'll be within easy reach of St Ives, St Michael’s Mount and plenty of surfing beaches, including Portreath, Porthtowan, Perranporth and St Agnes.
Enter the property and find yourself in the country-chic lounge with antique-style wooden furnishings, Chesterfield sofas and elegant, detailed lamps. Tones of blue, green and brown fill the space while natural light pours through the sash window. Continue into the airy, neutral-toned open-plan kitchen/diner with bi-folding doors that open onto the garden while you gather at the wooden dinner table. A white, L-shaped fitted kitchen unit with black countertops connects to an eye-catching exposed stone feature wall surrounding an electric double oven. Upstairs is a blue, tiled bathroom with a roll-top bath plus two bedrooms – a king-size and a twin. Outside, you’ll find an enclosed cottage garden with lawn and furniture on the patio area. There is on-street parking in the village within 0.5 miles.
While staying in the dinky village of Penponds, you could stroll to the local National Trust site, Trevithick Cottage (0.5 miles). For dinner out or shopping, the inland Cornish town of Camborne is 1.5 miles away. Spend a day at St Ives (13 miles), visiting its art galleries and sampling the delicious ice cream and Cornish pasties. Stretch out on Towan Beach (21.5 miles) or follow the South West Coast Path past Seal Island and the scenic spot at Gurnard’s Head (17 miles).
