An immaculately presented property in the heart of Cornwall’s countryside is exactly what you need for your next UK getaway. Within easy reach of some of the beautiful beaches that line the South West Coastal Path, you’re free to explore magnificent clifftop walks, seaside scenery and surfing adventures throughout your stay here. At the end of each day, you can return home to this stunning single-storey property, a magnificently modern choice of accommodation for up to six guests and one dog with an abundance of space for relaxing indoors or out.

High ceilings, sprawling windows and plenty of French doors ensure that this property is always light, bright and inviting. Step inside and make yourselves at home in the stylish open-plan living space. With a kitchen, lounge and diner, this sociable room is a one-stop spot for chilling out on an evening. Throw open the doors to bring the outside in, enjoy direct access to the garden while gathering around the stylish dining table for a sheltered al fresco dining experience. With the entire space laid out on one level, you can even access the garden from two of the three bedrooms, ideal for keeping an eye out as children or pets play.

No trip to Cornwall is complete without time spent on the beach, so jump in the car and reach the south coast in 6 miles. Beautiful beaches nearby include Seaton (6.5 miles) and Millendreath (9 miles). Perfect for holidays with children, the cottage is exceptionally positioned for plenty of local attractions. Discover the Wild Futures Monkey Sanctuary (8 miles), Adrenalin Quarry (5 miles) or Port Eliot House and Gardens (3 miles) which hosts regular seasonal events. You can, of course, venture to the town of Par (25 miles) to spend some time in Cornwall’s much-loved Eden Project.
