About this property

"SEAWARDS" PERFECT SEASIDE HOLIDAY HOME FOR 4/6 IN PERRANUTHNOE, CORNWALL

"Seawards" is in a spectacular coastal location up a quiet private lane on the edge of the small unspoilt village of Perranuthnoe and very close to Perranuthnoe Beach, West Cornwall . It is 2 miles east from the well known seaside holiday destination of Marazion. "Seawards" has outstanding south westerly coastal views over Mounts Bay and beyond towards Marazion, Mousehole, Newlyn and Penzance all in West Cornwall . From the property it is a four minute, virtually traffic free, walk to the safe, sandy beach of Perran Sands and five minutes walk to the centre of the village with it's excellent pub, cafes and galleries.

Please note: FRIDAY TO FRIDAY RENTAL PERIOD : In the busy summer months we let the property from Friday to Friday, the rental charge being for 7 NIGHTS.

Seawards offers well equipped, contemporary, light and airy accommodation for up to 8 people.

The main bungalow has 2 bedrooms , 1 bath/shower room and 1 ensuite shower room and offers spacious accommodation for 4 people.

If accommodation is required for more than 4 people , the annexe offering another 4 beds ( 1 king and 1 set of bunk beds) and a shower room, can be made available, at an additional per person, per night cost.

The living accommodation located at the front of the bungalow consists of a large light well equipped kitchen/dining room with views towards the sea and a large separate sitting room with comfy sofas, chairs, TV/DVD and wood burning stove. The kitchen and the sitting room have panoramic coastal views with sliding doors opening directly onto the decking with garden furniture and BBQ for outdoor dining.

The 2 bedrooms in the bungalow are located at the rear of the property as follows:
Bedroom 1: super king bed OR 2 singles, with ensuite shower room
Bedroom 2: king size bed with bath/shower room opposite.

The annexe is located 6 metres across a paved courtyard which leads off the side door of the kitchen/dining room.

Bedroom 3 (annexe): king size bed and bunk beds with ensuite shower room (available at an extra, per person cost, if more than 4 people)

The annexe is generally only available when there are more than 4 people staying. However, should you wish to use it for any reason with only 4 people staying please ask. In this instance there would be an extra charge applied.



OUTSIDE:

Between the bungalow and the annexe there is a secluded, sheltered courtyard with outdoor furniture. A delightful sun trap, just right for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
The wooden decking at the front of the bungalow also has outdoor furniture and is the perfect place to enjoy the lovely views by day or watch the sun go down in the evening.

There is parking for 3 cars opposite the front of the property with a small lawn area adjacent.

Perran Lane , which leads to "Seawards" is a small lane/track servicing only a handful of the other properties, with only occasional car. It is therefore extremely quiet so all you will have to disturb you is the sound of the waves or the call of the birds.

The Cornwall and South West Coastal paths (in both easterly and westerly directions) are within one minute's walk enabling you to explore this magnificent area of natural beauty with ease.

"Seawards" therefore offers an excellent base from which to enjoy the perfect Cornish seaside holiday with all that West Cornwall has to offer close at hand.

Heavenly stay

The property was beautiful and much bigger than it looked online. The views were amazing and to be able to hear the waves constantly was so therapeutic. The beds were all very comfortable and the bathrooms were lovely, what a treat to have 3! All was well equipped and really well thought through, a real home from home. Communication was excellent. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect holiday

Exceeded Expectations

A property with everything we could have asked for. It was extremely well equipped with everything we needed. Its location is amazing and has the best view from the decking (where we spent a lot of time). It has walks, a beach, 2 cafes and a pub all in a few minutes walk. Many popular places in Cornwall are in close proximity by car from the bungalow. We would definately return!

We have enjoyed a week of holiday here in September 2025. We have found the place ideal for a family and an additional couple which resided in a separate building (Annexe), which is a single bedroom bath (no additional kitchen). Downside of this setup is: when it rains, you could not get to the other side dry. Also no WiFi and no mobile reception in the Annexe, which we solved with a mobile travel router extending the Wifi, placed in the bedroom opposite of the Annexe. Perranuthnoe is a lovely small village with friendly people. Supermarkets are nearby and only a couple minutes drive away. Marazion and Penzance area easily reachable.

Dear Roland Thank you for the your review and so glad you had a great holiday at Seawards and enjoyed Perranuthnoe and the surrounding area of West Cornwall. With regard to the annexe, as stated on the Vrbo website the annexe has a kingsize bed and a set of bunk beds with an ensuite shower room. It is 5 paces away across a paved yard area, which is not covered, so it does depend on the weather, unfortunately I think you had quite a bit of rain whilst you were staying, I hope you found the large umbrella in the porch. You are right there is no separate kitchen as it is so close to the main kitchen. However, I hope you were able to use the kettle in the annexe for that early morning cup of tea or coffee. As you say, using the wifi extender situated in the bedroom opposite the annexe in the main house, provides ample wifi in the annexe. With regard to mobile reception this does depend on your provider, some are better than others in this beautiful yet slightly remote coastal location.

Idyllic early autumn break

The views from the house were just wonderful. The house is well appointed and very comfortable. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t hot enough for us to sit outside in the beautiful little garden but we enjoyed a G&T on the deck at the front. Parking is easy across from the house. Wi-Fi is superb! (The upgrade was installed during our stay - thanks Fiona). We were able to walk part of the coastal path from the house. Completely recommend this house and I am very fussy!

Absolutely fabulous!

When I arrived at Seawards for the first time I was totally blown away by the fabulous view from the lounge terrace windows! The bungalow is self is also fabulous... everything you need with a spacious patio area fully enclosed, perfect for dogs/children. The lovely two minute walk to the beach and lovely Beach café is also a massive bonus! I really need my Seaward fix very soon again so I've booked to go back again in April...I can't wait!!

Our stay at Seawards

We had walked past 'Seawards' a few weeks after we had booked it the previous year and just knew that it was going to be good, but it exceeded expectations. Perranuthnoe is a great base for a walking/chilling/eating break in Cornwall and 'Seawards' was perfect for us, the balcony being ideal for chilling out in the afternoons and evenings after a stiff morning walk. Well layed out, clean and comfortable. It was very hot and dry during our stay so I watered the pot plants a couple of times, which I hope was the right thing to do. We would love to return for another stay some time in the future and would recommend it to anybody. Thanks Fiona for the stay, and the bit of info. that we needed.

We have just come back from a lovely week at Seawards. The view from the terrace is outstanding, a lovely place to relax with a glass of wine. It’s a short walk to the beach and the Cabin cafe which we recommend trying out (quite a steep walk back). The beach is fairly quiet and very clean, and there’s access, at low tide, to a second beach within a 5 minute walk. The coastal path in both directions offer stunning views.The house itself is very well equipped, it had everything we needed and more. It’s got a lovely homely feel and we all settled in quickly.The outside is dog safe, both to the front and to the side so we could keep all the doors open knowing our dog couldn’t get out.The only thing of note that you can’t see on the photos is that the house is attached to another bungalow and the terraces are next to each other. This didn’t really bother us but if you are after something very private this might not be the one for you.Overall a very lovely house and we’d definitely stay again.

Hi Mette Thank you for taking the time to write such a comprehensive review, very much appreciated and so glad you had a great week . We look forward to welcoming you back another time . Thank you for the feedback regarding the adjoining decking , this reminds me to reinstate the lattice between the 2 decks, which blew away in the winter, That said, in our experience, it is rarely needed as our neighbours tend to sit on the private decking round corner at the other end of their bungalow .

Wir haben mit 4 Erwachsenen, 3 Teenagern und einem Hund eine Woche in Seawards verbracht und uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Cottage ist gemütlich mit reichlich Platz für alle und bestens ausgestattet. Man hat einen herrlichen Weitblick über die Bucht und viel Ruhe . In wenigen Minuten ist man zu Fuß am Strand, im Pub oder in zwei schönen Cafés. Lediglich zum einkaufen braucht man ein Auto.
