Inviting interiors have just the right mix of contemporary seaside chic & traditional features - a true family heaven, a pebbles throw from the beach. The moment you step out of your car, you hear the waves & smell the sea. Midway between two of the loveliest fishing villages of south Cornwall – Kingsand & Cawsand are as one – is a handsome well-proportioned Georgian house a street back from the sea, a tardis of a holiday home. The villages alone have 3 family friendly sandy beaches in a sheltered bay, the more adventurous may prefer Whitsand Bay, ideal for surfing. All generations will love it - brilliant set up for 2 families +
Please let Annabel know if you are booking for a wedding during May or June as we can be flexible regarding arrival day.

Why they chose this property
The "Forgotten corner of Cornwall" is a truly remarkable place - steeped in beauty, romance and ideal for a child friendly holiday, where due to the safety of the quiet streets and clean beaches on your doorstep everyone can have a chance to unwind.
The walks along the coastal path are breath taking and the micro-climate of Cawsand Bay never fails to offer some of the best weather in the South West.
