Overview
Apart from having a beautiful external design the house also features a gorgeous interior where a colour palette of calming hues as well as a selection of sumptuous soft furnishings creates an atmosphere that’s thoroughly condusive to relaxing. Glass sliding doors capitalise on the magnificent views of sea and sky, while high quality features throughout mean the home strikes just the right balance between aesthetics and practicality. Downstairs, the living and cooking area boasts an open-plan layout which feels spacious and light-filled thanks to that fantastic proportion of glass, and opens out to a deck where morning coffees and evening drinks can be enjoyed. Two roomy sofas create the perfect places to unwind on to take in the scenes of rolling waves and skyscapes in the distance, and the area is completed with a dining table, a large wood-burning stove and a stunning modern kitchen with breakfast bar and seating. Three wonderful bedrooms mean plenty of space for six guests, with the exquisite upper floor master suite having its own juliet balcony and en-suite bathroom. All rooms have deeply comfortable mattresses and beautiful décor, creating sumptuous sanctuaries for retreating to after days spent down on the beach.
Ideally placed above Praa Sands’ mile long stretch of fine sand, the delights of Cornish beach life lie quite literally on the property’s doorstep. Backed by dunes and spectacular coastal scenery it’s the ideal place for family picnics, sandcastle building or for paddling in the shallows, while the bay’s renowned swells draw bodyboarders and surfers from all over the country. Within 10 minutes’ drive are the popular coastal towns of Porthleven in one direction, and Marazion in the other where a plethora of coastal paths and walks can be relished along with visits to some of the area’s best-known landmarks like St Michael’s Mount and Porthleven’s harbour.

Fabulous Ocean Views
4.8/5
4.8/5
A fabulous, quiet and very peaceful property. One minor issue was that the sofas were too low and not comfortable at all. Other than that, what a fantastic location, central to everything we wanted to do and all was as described. The bedrooms and the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped and spotlessly clean. The parking was a little bit tight for two large SUVs - any bigger and it would be a problem. The views were fabulous and we were blessed with fine weather. We were fortunate to be entertained by an RNAS helicopter on exercise in the bay and the RNLI lifeboat attending an incident (floating debris). We wouldnt hesitate to return.

Amazing location with stunning views, fantastic beach a few minutes walk away. Very modern property with all modern fittings & fixtures and good quality to, only minor gripes, advertised as dog friendly and charged extra £100 for taking two dogs with us but, dogs not allowed on furniture, upstairs or left in property unsupervised, I can totally understand why and thats not the issue as its a fantastic property, just this isnt stated at booking only in the handbook on arrival and we spent the week quite paranoid about what the dogs where doing despite them being well behaved.
