With a dazzling blue pool and sun-drenched wraparound terraces, we'd forgive you for thinking this palatial retreat is hidden away in the Mediterranean wilds. Well, think again. Fringing the postcard-pretty village of Winnard's Perch and just six miles from the buzz of beloved Padstow and the sensational coast, this exclusive lakeside holiday resort couldn't be more firmly planted on Cornish soils if it tried. A home for all seasons, outside there's a private heated pool to splash around, a private sauna for a spot of rejuvenation and a bubbling hot tub for evening sundowners. And just wait until you fire up that gold-standard Green Egg barbecue and gather the crew together for evening meals around that vast alfresco dining table. If the weather doesn't buck up, never fear. Step inside this lavish home to discover free-flowing living spaces made for socialising, with a banquet-worthy dining area at its heart for family mealtimes and board game marathons. And the icing on the cake? A supped-up cinema room for family film nights. When you're ready to stretch your legs and explore the resort's hundred acres of country grounds, mosey down to the Health Club, where you'll find an indoor heated pool, a spa, and... a gym. Or up the ante down at the lake with the surf simulator and total wipeout adventure course with over fifty obstacles – that should keep the kids (and all you big kids) busy.

About Cornwall

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
