Combined with the temperate climate of Cornwall and golden beaches of Praa Sands on its doorstep, this home really hits the ball out the park when it comes to a seaside holiday. Not only will you be able to zip down to the beach for a day of surf and sand, but you can have lunch at the waterfront restaurant only a stone’s throw away from Praa Sands Beach. Real foodies might also find Porthleven calling to them – only nine minutes by car and with an expanding culinary scene, you won’t be able to resist lunch after walking along the shores of Porthleven Beach. All of this, of course, hinges on your ability to tear yourself away from this gorgeous home. Charming, modern, and wonderfully spacious, it has more than enough room for everyone to get into their own zone, but with the communal spaces on offer here you’ll probably end up spending plenty of time together making memories. Prepare snacks and drinks for a movie night in the cinema room or challenge each other to a friendly snooker competition. Outdoors, you can lounge poolside with a glass of wine or get the barbecue fired up for lunch. If you want to slip away for a few moments of self-care, we suggest coffee on the balcony at sunrise or a mindfulness session in the sauna as the steam boosts your serotonin levels.
