This modern and stylish coastal home-from-home with impressive views of Godrevy Lighthouse is designed for downtime. Expect long afternoons spent watching the waves roll in from the L-shaped couch and sipping chilled glasses of Pimm’s on the patio. The mezzanine level is perfect for quiet moments alone with a novel while the bright dining space calls for lively dinners followed by strawberries with dollops Cornish clotted cream. Sprint down to Gwithian Beach, just seven minutes from your doorstep, to catch a wave or sunbathe on the breezy swathes of golden sands. If you’re keen to explore a little further afield, jump in the car and take the twenty-minute drive to St Ives. Tuck into ice cream by the harbour, pore over British artwork in the Tate gallery and sample the buzzy food scene that draws an eager crowd.
