With space for up to six, this cosy home works well for a family or group of seaside-loving friends.
This welcoming retreat has a soothing decor of sea-inspired shades and stylish wooden accents. Relax as a group in the lounge/diner, complete with a toasty wood burner where your pup can curl up on chilly evenings. The well-equipped kitchen, complete with an air fryer and a second spot to eat, makes mealtimes a breeze. Head upstairs to find a comfy double bedroom and a twin, both decorated in soothing neutral tones. There’s also a pristine family bathroom and a separate WC on this floor. Ascend one more flight of stairs to the divine top floor, home to the bright and airy king-size bedroom. This space is simply delightful, featuring charming sloping ceilings, and a private balcony where you can sip your morning coffee while lapping up those sea views. In terms of outdoor space, you’ll have an enclosed front garden for soaking up the Cornish sunshine, with a bench perfect for relaxing with your four-legged friend nearby.
