Set in the vibrant Cornish sailing community of Fowey, alongside several Victorian buildings, this apartment is like something out of a fairytale. Designed to an incredibly high standard by your host, Alison, the interior feels very in keeping with the seaside locale without ever coming across as a cliche. There's not a deckchair stripe in sight. Instead, you're treated to sculptural driftwood lamps, moody seascape paintings, and a sophisticated palette of deep blues and grey tones that reflect the British weather more accurately than the usual sunshine yellow. If you can bear to leave the home, there are plenty of shops, restaurants and places of interest in the immediate vicinity. Fowey is a beautiful harbourside town with public events occurring throughout the year. The local community is a healthy mix of all ages who are warm and friendly and adept at making newcomers feel welcome.

The colourful town of Fowey is often named one of the most beautiful places in England, and this sleek penthouse is right in the thick of it. You’re no more than a ten-minute walk from seafood eateries, traditional pubs and the pretty harbour with bobbing fishing boats. Plus, the sandy Readymoney Cove is only a twenty-minute stroll away. Drop your bags, grab the cricket set and beach tent provided by your host, and while away the hours on the seashore. When you’re salty-haired and worn out, your bright home welcomes you with open arms. Sink into the sofa with a tipple from the gin cabinet or pop open a bottle of fizz on the private balcony. Dollop cream and jam on scones at the cosy breakfast bar, before admiring the walls adorned with prints by local artist Becky Bettesworth. And when it’s time to retreat to the land of nod, luxurious bedrooms await.

The view from this period apartment in Fowey has to be seen to be believed. Step out onto its little balcony, complete with wrought iron railings, and you can look left towards the harbour, straight across the estuary to Polruan and right out to sea. A superb coastal viewpoint, sitting out here over breakfast, coffee, dinner or a glass of wine, is going to be your new obsession. At the top of an imposing seafront building, it's a fully modernised home perfect for a couple, friends or a small family. 

We'll start in the open-layout living room, decorated in blues and whites – a reflection of the view outside. There's a comfy, L-shaped velvet sofa, a little dining nook by the patio doors and a superb, modern kitchen with a breakfast bar. Elsewhere, a beautifully styled main bedroom has a window seat overlooking the water and an en-suite shower room, while we particularly love the freestanding bath in the main bathroom.

Just a short walk or drive from the centre of town, you'll have a great choice of shops, restaurants and pubs on your doorstep, and the beach at Readymoney Cove is just a matter of minutes away too. 

Shades of Water

Barbeque

It doesn't get much better than a townhouse on the Cornish waterfront. No matter the weather, you'll have stunning panoramic views. Nestled in Fowey (a location officially part of Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty), the town has everything from independent local shops to an aquarium and Literary Centre. The food scene in Cornwall is globally renowned for its fresh local produce, excellent seafood restaurants, and humble harbourside cafes. When you want to stay in for the evening, use the modern kitchen-diner space or take it outside to the barbecue on the terrace and savour the sea air and sunset. Whether you take hiking seriously or you plan on leisurely walks, Fowey has several National Trust trails and all the natural facets of the West Country landscape to explore.

The Sea, The Sea

Balancing all the best of a cosy country cottage and a modern, riverside abode, Vesper definitely has the wow factor. Step into the main living area and be blown away by picturesque views of the River Fowey and the town. Thanks to its westward position, you can enjoy plenty of sun on the terrace or watch the ships sail by through the impressive floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room. You’ll also find a wood-burning stove here for colder days when all you want to do is snuggle up with a great book and relax. When you’re ready to step out and explore the area, you’ll be delighted to find yourself just steps from the famous Fowey ‘Hall Walk’, which can be accessed from the garden, and the beautiful South West Coast Path. Both walks are rewarded with spectacular views of the stunning landscape. If you’re feeling hungry or fancy doing some shopping, stroll down to the harbour or catch the ferry to Fowey, where a wide selection of independent shops, cafes and galleries await.

Situated right on the water in pretty Polruan, this cottage is quite a find. The terrace offers panoramic views of boats bobbing on the estuary, making it the perfect place for alfresco dinners and sunset drinks. Inside is utterly charming, with an eat-in kitchen, a cosy lounge with a fireplace, and a trio of comfortable bedrooms. Two can be arranged into twins if needed, and some boast their own waterfront panoramas. As for location, you'll have easy access to two beaches, coastal paths, and the ferry to Fowey. Just be sure to pack comfortable shoes – Polruan's steep hills and narrow streets make driving challenging, so travelling on foot is the best way to explore.

Cornish Reveries

Mixing snug and cosy with modern and functional, this smart home is a great choice for couples or small families looking to explore this gorgeous stretch of the South Cornish coast. Set on the outskirts of the fishing village of Fowey, it's only a short walk from traditional pubs, art galleries, and restaurants specialising in the area’s delicacy – mussels. We also love the abundance of outdoor adventures to be found nearby, including guided kayak tours up the River Fowey and boat hires. The apartment has a communal outdoor terrace that's perfect for a breakfast in the sunshine before heading down to the beach. Nearby Readymoney Cove is on the other side of town, surrounded by cliffs that keep it sheltered on windier days. And if the weather isn’t playing ball, just take your picnic inside to the open-plan kitchen and living room, complete with nautical touches.

Just a stone's throw away from the shops, restaurants and waterfront of Fowley, this central apartment offers a convenient spot to a couple, solo traveller or pair of friends (plus one small pooch) looking to experience Cornwall. While the location is everything here, the apartment's modern home comforts make it all the more special. From the comfy interiors of the living to the luxurious bathtub and snuggly bed – the space makes chilling out between days on the beach easy as can be. If you arrive by car, do note that there is no private parking available on-site – the local public car parks of Fowey are just a five-minute stroll away. Or, take advantage of the train route to Par and then the 20-minute bus to Fowey, if you'd prefer to leave the car at home.



Wild Flowers & Watercress

Take a seat on the front terrace of this charming cottage and take in the glimpses of the estuary this chic town is famous for. There’s a patio off the garden room too, ideal for reading your holiday book and this place is perfect as an all-year-round getaway as there’s an open fire for those colder months. Just a couple of things to note with this home – firstly, the stairs to the second floor are a bit on the narrow side. Secondly, there’s no parking and the road outside is steep, however, one reserved parking space is provided, a ten-minute walk away. You’ll definitely need to bring your walking shoes.

Desk / Workplace

This vibrant apartment is set inside an award-winning restoration – the old station master's house in Fowey. You'll find no tired seaside theming here, with bright and breezy decor that references the finest European destinations, from the tiles of Lisbon to the Spanish coastline's leafy greenery. The living area is on the first floor with a mezzanine study up in the vaulted roof, while the bedrooms are on the ground floor, each with patio doors out to a private terrace at the rear.

Around a seven-minute walk from the heart of Fowey's buzzing town, you'll find everything from local fish and chips to a number of high-end eateries, great pubs and excellent shopping. Boat trips and kayaks can be booked nearby, letting you explore the River Fowey from a different angle, and don't miss the tiny car ferry across to the other side of the river. 

Timely Station Master

Hot Tub

Wellness & Fitness

This characterful townhouse in the centre of Fowey is a lovely mishmash of exposed masonry, quirky wallpaper and coastal charm. But that's not the only reason we adore it – one look at the far-reaching views and you'll fall in love with it, too. Set over four levels, it's a bit of climb up to the fourth-floor lounge but trust us – it's worth every step. From up here, you've got a bird's eye view of the estuary, pretty Cornish coastline and the sparkling ocean, and the best spot to take it all in is the sunny roof terrace. Pour yourself a glass of wine (or a glass of juice for the little ones) and relish in the unforgettable sunsets, watching as the tide ebbs and flows. Then, when you've had your fill of the scenery (if that's even possible), make your way downstairs to the country-style kitchen for a family dinner before snuggling up in the sumptuous beds.

With its quaint boutiques and local eateries hiding all sorts of hidden treasures, there's plenty in Fowey to explore. Miles of idyllic coastline and countryside are ideal for walks, while harbourside cafes are the perfect spots to relax with a coffee before hiring a boat and setting off on an afternoon on the river. And, with an excellent pub next door, you won't even need to worry about cooking – sounds like heaven to us.

Blue Boat

Just one hundred metres from the water’s edge, this quiet cottage in Polruan is far enough from the action to feel like an escape but close enough that a short walk brings you to two characterful pubs and a quick three-mile drive places you at Lansallos Beach.
 
The unusual “upside down” configuration – bedrooms and bathrooms on the ground floor, lounge and kitchen up top – is designed to make the most of those stellar views across the harbour. Throw open the windows and watch the boats bob on the gentle waves as you nurse your morning coffee. 

When it’s fair out, pull on your walking boots and follow the coastline to Lantic Bay, a leisurely thirty-six-minute amble, or hop on the ferry and pootle over to Fowey. Come home, windswept and worn out for a well-earned gin and tonic in the tidy courtyard or a strong cup of tea in the cosy living space.

Look To Seaward

Temperature Control

This upper-floor apartment is a great getaway for a family with young children. The cabin bedroom may not be well-suited for adults, but doubling up as another TV room, it’ll most likely be the little ones' favourite area of the home. The pad also boasts a lovely terrace, which guests can make the most of on those sunny Cornish days. From here, you have panoramic views of the picturesque town of Fowey and the river, which are easily accessible thanks to the central location.

A Voyage to the Sea

Enjoy a sundowner on the terrace, playing cards, and people watching.

Vanishing Cornwall

You could be forgiven for allowing the day to slip away as you indulge in the supreme comfort and gorgeous river views from the master bedroom with its perfectly positioned chaise longue, or toast your toes by the log burner during the colder months. 

Lose yourself in the calm and carefree nature of life in this picturesque fishing village, where you can nab the catch of the day in any of the fantastic local restaurants. Alternatively, grab a rod and head down to the riverbank for a pleasant day of fishing – or why not hire a couple of kayaks and paddle beneath the blue Cornish skies towards the river mouth and out to sea?

Is there anything more soothing for the soul than strolling along the seafront, feeling the sea breeze in your hair? We’re passionate about coastal escapes, so as far as we’re concerned, a trip to Cornwall’s beautiful Fowey is always a good idea. And that good idea is made great by staying at this truly lovely home. 

The house is spread over three floors, with a ground-floor apartment in addition to a roomy second- and third-floor home – this is the perfect base for two separate families travelling together. You can gather together as much as you like, but when you need your own space it’s all there for you. We think the ground floor would be perfect for grandparents, while parents and little ones can spread out upstairs. 

You can look forward to wonderful views here. You’ll be able to admire boats sailing by from the kitchen window, and enjoy views of Fowey as you relax in the bath. Sit out on the terrace and take in the vista over to Polruan, ideally while sipping a chilled glass of wine. 

Readymoney Cove is just ten minutes away on foot, so make sure you bring your bucket and spade. Paddle in the water, skim stones or tuck into piping hot fish and chips on the sand. The harbour is just three minutes away, with its bevy of pretty boats. However you spend your time in Fowey, you’ll be delighted to have such a cosy and convenient space to call home. 


Sail On The Breeze

With its ideal positioning, elevated on a slight hill over Fowey, Moon Song gives you panoramic views across the estuary and out to the open sea. The balcony is the perfect place for a coffee or an evening aperitif as you admire the landscape. The town itself, with its lovely array of shops, traditional pubs and fine dining restaurants, is a five minute walk from the home, and the picturesque Readymoney Cove is just a short amble in the opposite direction. You’ll be surrounded by many miles of outstanding countryside and coastline, so there’s boundless opportunity for hiking, or you can simply take a car and explore any of the beaches up and down the coast. 


Moon Song

Set on the side of a hill and overlooking the River Fowey as it meets the sea, this stunning home has views to die for. With a waterfront position, it looks out across the estuary from all the main rooms so you can watch the water from morning to night. In the little village of Polruan, you'll be just opposite the popular town of Fowey, known for its trendy shops and eateries. An unusual home, you enter from ground level to an immaculate and bright open-plan living room. Thanks to the slope, although it's ground level at the front of the house, you'll feel you've stepped into a top floor apartment when you see the views from the rear. With vaulted ceilings and skylights, the all-white space is modern and comfortable, with a smart kitchen, big dining table and cosy seating area. Patio doors open to a private deck – the perfect spot to sit back with a glass of wine and just take it all in. Downstairs you'll find all the bedrooms and bathrooms – three with river views – and outside you have access across the lawn to a small mooring on the waterfront. With a shop and a pub just a few steps away from the home, you could easily spend your days here, but it's just a quick car ferry ride from the quay across to Fowey, or follow the coastal path for a hike towards Lantic Bay beach.

Star Sailor

Tucked away in the pretty port town of Fowey, this cottage is all about elegance, simplicity and quality. Expect crisp white sheets in the bedrooms, a clutter-free living space with a wood-burning stove and an up-to-date Shaker-style kitchen. We particularly loved the strategically placed skylights, allowing natural light to flood through the home. 

Spend mornings curled up on the sofa with a good book and a cup of Earl Grey before heading onto the terrace for breakfast in the sunshine. If you’d like to stretch your legs, take a stroll into the heart of your locale and check out the fantastic selection of cafes, ice cream shops, restaurants and pubs. Set out on the Hall Walk trail or take it easy and relax on Readymoney Cove Beach, less than a fifteen-minute saunter from your doorstep. 

When it’s time to call it a day, return to your abode for a glass of your favourite tipple and a well-deserved pamper session in the slipper bath tub.

Dragonfly Cottage

Parking On Street

Enjoy some of the best views in Fowey when you stay at this grand Victorian house. With its elevated position on the famous Esplanade, the fabulous panoramic vistas took our breath away. You can see the harbour, Polruan, Pont Pill, the ruins of St Catherine's Castle and right out to sea. You can also enjoy the seascape from the large bay window in the stylish living room. Or take in the reflections on the water from the window seat in the main bedroom. We love the beachy vibe in this home, with its various shades of blue, seaside paintings and beach hut cushions.

If you fancy a swim in the sea, head to Readymoney Cove, a five-minute stroll or two-minute drive away. Or take advantage of chic Fowey's array of boutiques, cafes and restaurants. There's a pub and shops around 400 metres from this home, too.


Daphne's Paradise

This beautiful home– located on the River Fowey – is a charmingly renovated fisherman’s cottage that originally dates back to 1620. You will be able to enjoy stunning views from every room in this home. However, the waterfront patio here is truly the home’s crowning glory. Enjoy leisurely breakfasts at the picnic table overlooking the harbour and watch the boats pass by or look out across the water to the greenery of the National Trust woodlands.  

After exploring the multi-coloured homes perched on the hillsides of Fowey, leading down to the sea, head home for an evening perched in the living room’s window seat overlooking the river. Or, why not enjoy an alfresco nightcap on the patio to admire the last of the watery vistas before night descends? 

Fisherman's Fancy

With views across the harbour to Readymoney Cove, this Cornish home has a splendid location. The coastal path is just yards away, so you’ll have idyllic walks right on your doorstep. The nearest beach is just over 800 metres away, as are bars and a grocery store, while Polruan Castle is just over 200 metres from this home. Fowey, with its art galleries, boutiques and fantastic restaurants, is nearby too. The Polruan Ferry takes you across the estuary to Fowey in under fifteen minutes.

Pick up some fresh produce, barbecue a Cornish feast, and enjoy it on your terrace while you look out to sea. The glorious seascape can be admired from the living room and every bedroom too, which we adore. The spacious eat-in kitchen will easily accommodate all the gang – this place is perfect for a family or a group of friends.


Readymoney Cove Vistas

Stair Gates

Tucked away in delightful Polruan with its own secret, walled courtyard garden beyond the gate, this charming cottage is the perfect Cornish retreat. The south-facing patio has a lovely Mediterranean vibe with its lush plants and terracotta flowerpots. Head through the stable door, and you’ll find a colourful kitchen perfect for cooking up a seafood feast. This home is a house of joy and is ideal for a family or two couples.

Out and about, there are shops, cafes and two village pubs a short stroll away. The harbourside and glorious coastal walks are right on your doorstep. Or do some beachcombing – the seashore is 400 metres away. Polruan Castle, on the other hand, is a five-minute stroll. If you want to explore the town of Fowey opposite, the Polruan Ferry takes you across the estuary in under fifteen minutes, or a ten-minute drive will take you to the Bodinnick Car Ferry.


Chi Lowen

Balcony / Patio

Craving some time away from the mundane? This Cornish retreat, located just 2.5 miles away from Fowey and a ten-minute walk away from Par Sands Beach is a dreamy spot from which to escape the daily grind. With its cottage-like aesthetic, the home offers all the necessary home comforts to ensure a comfortable stay. Laid out like a studio, the living area and bedroom present an open space to kick back in after a day of taking in the surrounding nature. A muted colour palette of creams and greys, alongside the earthy hues of the wooden furnishings and flooring, create a humble abode, that proves easy to cosy up in and relax. The kitchen leads out onto a private terrace, where guests can lap up the sunshine on a summer's afternoon or watch the bats flying around at dusk. Pick apples from the many apple trees around the property when venturing out along the nature-filled pathways. When you return back, there's even a useful little handheld shower outside for muddy boots and rinsing off the dogs. Once you've worked up an appetite, light up the barbecue for an evening in – since there's no light pollution here, you'll see the glimmering stars light up the sky on a clear night. The home is idyllically situated down a picturesque farm track surrounded by fields – meaning a peaceful night's sleep is undoubtedly on the cards. Enjoy walks down to the local pub at the bottom of the hill for a nightcap and leisurely strolls along the southwest coastal path (just a ten-minute walk away) during the light of the daytime. With the nearest Co-op supermarket only a mile away and Cornwall Newquay Airport, just a thirty-minute drive away for those travelling from further afield – you won't have to compromise on convenience here either.

The Burrower's Den

Ideally nestled into the east bank of the River Fowey, this lovely home offers plenty of space for up to eight guests in a tranquil setting. From inside the cottage, you can enjoy picturesque views of the river and the many estuary birds that visit during low tide. For four hours of either side of high tide, you can head out for some boating. 

Thanks to plenty of lawn equipment, the garden is ideal for dining alfresco and playing games. But that’s not all – the large, fully equipped kitchen offers a great setting for socialising, and with not one but two sitting rooms, there’s plenty of space for everyone to claim a corner for themselves when they want some time on their own. 

On colder nights, feel free to light the wood-burning stove and make yourself comfortable on the sumptuous sofas. Upstairs, two of the bedrooms are equipped with twin beds, making this home an excellent choice for a family.

Heron & Crane

Thanks to its elevated and southern facing position, this home benefits from uninterrupted sweeping sea views across the harbour to Readymoney Cove and out to Gribbin Head. 

Cliffbrake welcomes up to eight guests to enjoy this fabulous location, a few metres away from the coastal path to the sandy shores of Lantic Bay – around a thirty-five-minute walk away and an even shorter half a mile stroll to the pub, village shops and ferry port that goes to Fowey. With an abundance of coastal and country walks, we recommend packing comfortable shoes because this area truly is best explored on foot. But we also really wouldn’t blame you if you never wanted to leave this magnificent home. 

After all, the views here are spectacular and made even more picturesque with the boats that sail by. Enjoy these vistas from the terrace while you dine al fresco, or from the sunroom, the dining room and the cosy living area when the weather is being less kind. You needn't worry about missing out on the views from the other rooms of the home, as you'll even get to lap up them up from upstairs in the bedrooms too.

Cliffbrake

Electricity Adaptors

Umbrellas

Affording exceptional views of England's green and pleasant land from the living room, this family studio is perfect for those looking to get away from city life and explore the lush, undulating countryside of Cornwall. It overlooks the scenic Oaklands Park, and is just a ten-minute drive from Polperro Beach and East Looe Beach. Situated in a former hotel, the apartment itself is embellished by beautiful raw-wood in and around the kitchenette and living room. It has three beds in total – a king for parents and twins for children – all with super-soft 400-thread count linen. Perfect for resting those weary legs after hiking through the Cornish country.

Rustic Vista

Only a ten-minute drive from the cobbled streets of Polperro and the bustling harbour town of Looe, this studio apartment is a countryside hideaway. Part of a converted hotel, the home is set in the rolling fields of Cornwall. We love to run an evening bath in the outdoor tub and watch the sunset over the hills. The small plot is great for a solo stay or romantic retreat – with a comfy king-size bed and small kitchenette to cook up light meals and breakfasts. The hosts are particularly attentive and bursting with recommendations and helpful tips. Lace up your walking boots: there are paths to explore on the four acres of land the home is set on, or drive to the nearby South West Coast Path for tramps over coastal cliffs. On sunny days, it's a quick journey to Cornwall's most beautiful beaches. We love Lantic Bay, a sheltered cove that's only accessible by foot, for a sense of privacy. For dinner, it's best to head out and make the most of the abundance of seafood in this region.

Oak Loft

Fenced Garden

Newly renovated, this stylish property with bags of character in the delightful village of Tywardreath (pronounced 'Taow-dreth', for those wondering). A historic stone cottage with beautiful period features, it boasts a uniquely charming blend of a traditional feel with all the modern decor and appliances you could need for a comfortable, memorable stay. 

Just a short walk to local village shops and pubs, and a stone's throw from the captivating Cornish coastline that has inspired a thousand writers and artists over the centuries, this home provides the ideal base for experiencing all the very best that the South-West has to offer.  

Take the ten-minute walk to the pristine sands of the dog-friendly Par Beach, or head over to the dramatic cliffs of Carlyon Bay or the sheltered bay of Polkerris, which are both also nearby and offer a selection of eateries along the shoreline. For those with a hankering for hiking, there are plenty of lovely walking trails right out of the front door, including some of the most varied stretches of the South West Coast Path. The ever-popular seaside town of Fowey is also within easy reach, and if you fancy getting out on the water itself then some of Cornwall's best paddle-boarding can be enjoyed at nearby Golant.

No matter how you end up spending the day, you can always look forward to returning to this traditional yet chicly-finished cottage. As soon as you step through the doors, you'll be greeted by a warm and cosy interior that's really brought to life by the addition of funky patterned wallpaper, notes of brilliant blue, and eye-catching original stone detailing. Sink into the generous sofas in front of the feature fireplace with log burner or crack open the family board games to fire up a little friendly competition. There are also children's DVDs and even a toy chest to keep the little ones entertained, making this an ideal space to unwind after a long day of exploring the coast.

Alternatively, why not catch the last of the evening sun out on the patio or the raised lawn area? Or enjoy a glass of wine in the enclosed courtyard while dinner's underway in the traditional Aga-style oven? Ah, it's the simple things...

Primrose Cottage

Set in a former hotel, this home is an excellent choice for exploring some of Cornwall's prettiest corners while avoiding the crowds. It’s a minutes’ drive from the bustling port of Looe, where we love to mosey around the model village, gorge on the catch of the day at a restaurant or perch on the sheltered beach. Polperro is also close by, a ten minutes’ drive away, with its cobbled streets and local pubs. Back at home, you’ll find a relaxing bright environment with beachy vibes. We love the different coloured wood in the kitchenette, the blue tiles in the bathroom and the wicker lamps. The loveseat has a clear nautical theme, perfect for afternoon lounging, while the bed is luxurious and welcoming at the end of the day. Enjoy breakfast at the small wooden table, or outside in finer weather, and map out your plans for the day. For the more adventurous, there are several canoe, kayak and paddleboarding shops in Looe, with the choice to hire or go on a guided tour. Otherwise, hit the gorgeous coastal walking paths, following the cliffs and coastline and even passing a few sheltered little beaches.

You’ll love waking up and stepping into the private garden – this is a lovely spot to feel the refreshing sea breeze as you drink your morning coffee. Inside, the space is sensitively designed to feel intimate and cosy – at night you can hear the calming sound of waves in the distance. 

And when you feel inspired to explore, it’s just a short stroll down to the beach and across the quay to the village. Here you’ll find a lovely pub, restaurant, cafe, deli and antique shop, while other highlights like the Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan are less than a twenty–minute drive away. 

Pearl in the Sea

Utterly enchanting were our thoughts when we first saw this beautifully renovated Grade II listed Charlestown home – this place is very special indeed. Relax in the lovely, secluded south-facing garden or in the glass-covered courtyard filled with scented jasmine and verdant tree ferns – it's the perfect spot for a glass of Cornish fizz in the evening while doing a bit of star gazing. 

We love the bedroom, which is open to the rafters, as well as its cast-iron freestanding bathtub. On stormy nights, you may even hear the sound of the waves – what a wonderful way to fall asleep.

The following day, help yourself to tea or coffee, and feast on scrumptious Cornish cinnamon buns, provided courtesy of your hosts Antonia and David. They can also deliver oven-ready meals for lunch or dinner. 

If you prefer to eat out, there are an array of tempting restaurants on your doorstep to choose from. Or pop to the deli and take a picnic down to Charlestown Beach, a one-minute stroll away. Other beaches to try in the area include the golden sands of Porthpean, a five-minute drive. For history lovers, the Charlestown Shipwreck and Heritage Centre is a one-minute saunter, or keen hikers can have a walk around Gribben Head, a fifteen-minute drive from this home.
