Guests will enjoy captivating views over roof tops and the long beach to the Lizard Peninsula. This modern property provides cosy but stylish accommodation for a romantic retreat for two in glorious Porthleven. With reverse level interiors, enter into an open plan living area with a kitchen with bar table and sitting area with plump sofas and a Juliette balcony. Steep stairs lead from the living room to the lower ground floor and a master bedroom with an en-suite shower room and patio door to a private, seaward facing balcony with garden furniture for alfresco meals, sundowners and to soak up the views. Within a 2 minute walk is the Ship Inn, a 17th century smugglers’ haunt which overlooks the harbour and remains something of a village hub. Tide permitting, walk the three mile stretch of sand and shingle at Porthleven beach to the National Trust’s Loe Bar and Penrose Estate, or alternatively discover the scenic coastal footpath. Discover foodie restaurants including Michelin recognised Kota and Rick Stein’s sea food restaurant or browse the art galleries and gift shops which line the harbour. The ancient market town of Helston is just 3 miles away and the long sandy beaches at Praa Sands and Marazion are within a 20 minute drive and both offer watersport tuition and equipment hire. Experience the majestic St Michael's Mount, a mystical island which protrudes from the glistening sea. At high tide take the ferry across to the tiny harbour or enjoy the adventure by foot and walk the narrow cobbled causeway at low water. Continue around the coast and discover bustling Penzance and en-route to Land's End, the drama and romance of the open-air Minack Theatre, cut from the granite cliff face and jutting precariously seawards - a must-see location! A cosy and comfortable home with outstanding views over Porthleven Beach, The Loft is a very special property designed for a honeymooning couple, ramblers, beach lovers, artists, foodies or just a romantic retreat.
