Brimming with charming reminders of its past life, this former Sunday School is a unique Cornish hideaway for couples, small families and, of course, four-legged friends. Behind its unchanged facade lies fresh, light and open-plan accommodation complete with a warming wood burner for those chillier evenings and beautifully presented bedrooms and bathrooms tucked away in the eaves above. When you’re not enjoying tea in the picture-perfect cottage garden, explore this magical pocket of West Cornwall, with its dog-friendly beaches, open-air theatre, famous filming locations and historic towns and villages.
Sympathetically converted to retain much of its original charm and appeal, this historic building now boasts elegant and timeless accommodation finished with carefully chosen modern comforts. At one end of the open-plan living space, a charming kitchen area contains everything you could need and features one of the many beautiful and large windows. Sitting beside another is a contemporary dining table to seat six, while a plump and inviting L-shaped sofa surrounds a wood burner and Smart TV at the other side of the room. Leaving your faithful friend to keep cosy beside the crackling fire, climb the charming staircase that leads up to the bedrooms and bathroom. Beautifully decorated in restful whites, with a stylish boutique hotel feel and featuring stunning original windows, the bedrooms will have you looking forward to the end of the day. The charm of this property extends to the garden, where a summerhouse and BBQ are surrounded by beautifully stocked beds, meandering pathways and rural views, not to mention a host of interesting new smells for your pooch to discover.
For dog walks, choose between the surrounding countryside or the windswept Cornish coastline, with its well-trodden coastal path and dog-friendly beaches. Kenneggy Sands, Long Rock and Portheras Cove are just a few of the many beautiful sandy stretches in the area that welcome dogs all year round. No trip to this part of Cornwall is complete without visiting Botallack, the filming location of the popular TV series, Poldark. Back in St Just, find a good choice of pubs, cafes and convenience stores, all just 0.5 miles from your front door.
