In Carnhell Green, three cottages beautifully converted from traditional stone barns around a secluded, leafy courtyard tucked 200 yards down a private drive. The cottages share an indoor heated swimming pool (24' x 9'6" x 4' deep - open 1st April to 31st October) and each has its own private outdoor space. Shared utility room (washing machine, tumble drier). The friendly owners live in the former farmhouse across the courtyard. Lovely walks all around. Popular farm shop/restaurant 1/2 mile, Carnhell Green: hamlet (PO/shop) in countryside, 3 1/2 miles from the huge, beautiful sand/surf beaches of Gwithian Towans and Godrevy.Backed by sand dunes tufted with wild grass, at low tide there is a vast amount of sand to enjoy and large areas of rock pools and caves are uncovered which are great for kids to explore and dog friendly. The beach is a favourite destination for surfers as the constant swell coming in from the ocean provides good all year round conditions. Common seals are a regular sight near the beach and the area is a breeding ground for colonies of seabirds such as guillemots, razorbills and cormorants. The Sunset Surf beachside cafe and bar overlooks the beach and is open all year, serving locally sourced, seasonal ingredients wherever possible and nearby the Jam Pot Cafe and Shop, a former 19th century coastguard lookout, is where you can enjoy home cooked snacks and be distracted by the stunningly natural views out over St Ives Bay.
