Perched high on the hillside overlooking Helford Passage and the sparkling waters of the Helford River, the spacious Selangor is ready to welcome you with its comfortable interiors and expansive garden. In summer, the Helford River becomes a paradise for families, water enthusiasts, and anyone eager to immerse themselves in Cornwall’s remarkable natural beauty. Here you’ll discover an unspoilt coastline, quiet beaches, and a true sense of why Cornwall’s charm continues to captivate visitors year after year.
Positioned on the hillside along the exclusive Bar Road, with sweeping sea views across Helford Passage, Selangor offers families and groups of eight the chance to experience this special corner of Cornwall from an exceptional setting.
Wander down the steep hill to the beach at Helford Passage (though the climb back up may cross your mind later). Once there, enjoy paddling in the calm waters, hire a paddleboard, pick up an ice cream from the beach hut, or continue the day into the evening at the nearby Ferryboat Inn, where locally sourced dishes are served on a terrace overlooking the beach and river.
Spacious and thoughtfully equipped, Selangor has been furnished to a high standard throughout. After days spent exploring the coast, relax on the south-facing patio in the sunshine. Then, as night falls and moonlight dances across the water, take in the beautiful view from each bedroom one final time before drawing the curtains.
