Sitting close to the majestic Hartland Cornwall Heritage Coast, this impressive home is the perfect combination of space, light and classic design. The tall vaulted ceiling brings a cathedral-esque level of headroom to the ground floor and a mezzanine level utilises some of the available space above in a smart fashion. Rather aptly for a building that has an air of grandeur, the finishes and furnishings look to tradition for influence, especially the parquet flooring, handsome wood panelling and a resplendent dining table. That being said, there are enough contemporary touches, like the eye-catching lighting and sleek kitchen, to stop it from feeling dated in any way. Guests will find it supremely easy to relax and feel at peace at this address. When they're not basking in the warmth of the living room's log-burning fireplace, they can sink back into bubbles in the freestanding bathtub or enjoy the peace and quiet of the Cornish countryside from the comfort of the alfresco hot tub. The home itself sits within the grounds of Penstowe Manor and guests get full access to the resort's pools, fitness centre and restaurants. A little further afield, it's possible to go for clifftop walks along the South West Coast Path or swim in the sea at Sandymouth Beach, only a five-minute drive away.
