About this property

This little gem nestles in a peaceful valley between St Ives and Penzance

Peace and plenty are assured in the private garden of your converted 18th Century stable retreat. A short drive, through lush lanes and past flower-filled hedges, will take you to picturesque St Ives with its plethora of restaurants, galleries and cobbled streets.

The beaches in this area are stunning, mostly white sands and clear blue seas; and if you are searching for hidden coves, there are many waiting to be discovered. Walks are abundant, be it across the moors or along the Tinner's Way to the coastal path, and your pooch can come too.
Set within an enclosed private garden with a bench, gas barbecue and table and chairs, in the grounds of the owners' home, Smithy's Stable is perfect for two. The open plan living area is warmed by a roaring wood-burner and boasts an en suite bedroom, which is home to a double bed and separated from the living space by open paneling.
Smithy's Stable has been decorated with style and flair. Exposed granite walls, slate and solid oak floors and a small but well-equipped kitchen area, with a two ring gas hob and mini oven, complete the cozy charm and character of this converted stable. The quintessential romantic retreat for your Cornish holiday.
Check in FRIDAY.
