Quaint and cute on the outside, modern and luxurious on the inside – this paradoxical home is the perfect hub for your Cornish escape. The shabby, chic white walls of the exterior mask the deluxe fittings and contemporary furniture hidden inside. The open-plan living space has been expertly designed to accommodate the whole group without feeling crowded. Comfy sofas are made to rest weary legs, and the dining table behind is perfect for coming together at meal times. In the mornings, we suggest you start your day at the stylish breakfast bar, lined by a couple of trendy stools. Perch on top with a coffee and a croissant, fuelling you for a day exploring Cornwall's beautiful coastline. The vibrant towns of St Ives, Penzance and Marazion are just a short drive away, offering stunning beaches and cute dining spots along the harbour. Closer to home, you can spend sunny afternoons on the beach Porthkidney Sands – just 500 metres from the home.

About Cornwall
