As environmentally sympathetic as it is stylish, this quiet hideaway close to the North Cornish coast is a perfect blend of pared-back simplicity and modern comfort. A picture of immaculate design, it's a cabin-style home made from natural materials (timber framing and bee-friendly bricks) that give way to an interior decorated in neutral shades of cream, light wood and olive green. Minimalist furnishings, sleek flooring and a bright white kitchen with high spec appliances ensure there's no roughing it here. You’ll breeze between outdoor and indoor living with sliding glass doors that lead out to a private hot tub, well-kept garden, and patio area. Start your day with breakfast in the fresh sea air, before strolling down to the idyllic Gwithian Beach, discovering the spectacular sand dune formations and wild Nature Reserve backed onto the shore. Just a seventeen-minute drive from St Ives and nine to the National Trust's Godrevy Beach, there's plenty to do and see nearby, with a peaceful location just a five-minte drive from the town of Hayle.
