Nestled amidst the picturesque Pendeen Peninsula, this family-friendly haven offers awe-inspiring views of the dramatic coastline, making it a truly idyllic escape for nature enthusiasts and coastal lovers alike. This is ‘Poldark’ country; you can imagine the smugglers at night coming into the coves in their small boats, hiding their contraband.

The well-equipped kitchen allows you to prepare delightful meals for your family and friends, or perhaps even indulge in some local Cornish delicacies.

After a day of exploration, you can unwind and relax in the wood-fired hot tub located in the garden, imagine soaking in warm, bubbling water, surrounded by nature’s beauty, and overlooking the sparkling sea - it’s a truly rejuvenating experience that will leave you feeling refreshed. If the weather is bad, sit in the conservatory and snuggle up, watch the fantastic night skies, play one of the board games or read a good book.

As for things to do in the area, Pendeen and its surroundings offer a wealth of activities and attractions. The historic Pendeen lighthouse, perched on the cliffs, will give you an insight into its maritime history. The area is surrounded by mining heritage, and you can visit Geevor Tin Mine or Botallack mines featured in Poldark. Portheras Cove is ½ mile away, and Portherras Beach (a secluded and dog-friendly cove perfect for picnics and paddling) is one of the many beaches in the area. If you travel further you will come to Porthcurno beach, a stunning secluded beach and how to the famous outdoor Minack theatre, carved into the cliffs. The nearest town is St Just full of artisan shops, galleries restaurants, pubs, and cafes, for a full day out head to Lands’ End just over 10 miles away.

Two dogs are welcome (but please keep off the furniture!) and there is a designated doggy shower outside as well as dog hairdryer.
