Nestled in Saint Ervan, this charming home serves up the perfect balance of countryside and coast. Set on a working farm, it’s an ideal base for a family on a Cornish retreat, with nature surrounding you yet just a short drive to the coastline. We love all the homely touches, and with a log burner and freestanding tub indoors, and a fire pit and wood-fired hot tub outdoors, you’re spoilt for choice when picking somewhere to unwind at the end of a busy day.
