About the host
Hosted by Isla & Gyles
Hi, I’m Isla! I live in Cornwall with my partner Gyles and our dog, Atticus. We love coastal living, long walks by the sea, and travelling to explore new places whenever we can. As both hosts and guests on Airbnb, we really appreciate thoughtful stays and good local recommendations, and we enjoy helping others feel welcome and at home wherever they’re staying :)
Why they chose this property
Gyle’s family have lived in the area for generations, and he grew up next door in the family home where we now live, so it’s always held a special place in our hearts. We believe it’s one of the most beautiful and peaceful parts of Cornwall, with a fascinating history and a coastline just waiting to be explored. There’s something quite magical about this area. It feels untouched, a little mystical, and wonderfully unique.
What makes this property unique
Set in a rare coastal location, our property offers a unique blend of seclusion and convenience. Peacefully tucked away, yet within walking distance of the village, local amenities, and Tintagel Castle. It’s an ideal retreat after a day of exploring, where you can truly unwind and wake up to the fresh ocean air, with no roads or crowds between you and the sea. The large gardens with sea views and complimentary Cornish cream tea are also often mentioned by guests as a real highlight.
