Marazion Holiday Retreat

Travel from bed to balcony with your morning coffee in hand when staying in this serene Cornwall cottage. Featuring a view of the sea and a short distance walk to the beach, this central Marazion property offers a superb coastal hub for two guests to enjoy a romantic South Cornwall break. Spend time exploring surrounding landmarks including St Michael's Mount (0.5 miles) and the Lizard Heritage Coast (1 mile) or jump in the car and drive to St Ives in less than 10 miles. However you chose to spend your days, quality time for two awaits in this expertly decorated and extremely comfortable ground-floor apartment.

With exposed stonework and feature windows, the cottage is teeming with traditional fisherman's cottage elements and has been sympathetically furnished to highlight these. Step into the generously proportioned lounge/kitchen/diner that's separated by a kitchen island to make the space more dynamic. An impressive Range cooker makes the kitchen a playground for budding chefs, and meals can be enjoyed either at the dining table or on the terrace which is accessible via the bedroom. The bedroom itself is king-size with a sumptuous sleigh bed and a pretty dressing table with plenty of clothes storage. Finally, a handsomely tiled bathroom with a rainfall shower completes the property's offering.

Explore the historic streets and soft sand beach of Marazion, wandering down to Steps Beach with a fresh portion of fish and chips mere metres from home. St Michael's Mount is a must-visit attraction, accessible via the ancient causeway at low tide or by boat. Further thrilling boat rides can be taken from the neighbouring town of Penzance (4 miles). Here the harbour gives way to fishing trips and wildlife cruises for a chance to spot dolphins, porpoises and even a humpback whale on a rare occasion!
