Guinea fowls roam nearby and peacocks strut within the gardens surrounding the neighbouring owners’ farmhouse.

This is the ideal location for exploring this wonderful part of Cornwall with its mining heritage, most recently a back drop for the TV series ‘Poldark’.

Take the scenic coastal drive from Pendeen to St Ives across stunning moorland, passing the small village of Zennor with its tales of mermaids, an ancient church and a charming local pub.

Be sure to visit the Minack open air theatre, built directly into the cliff face with the ocean as a backdrop. A short drive to Penzance or the historic town of Marazion are great options also, where you can pop over to the small island of St Michaels Mount. Alternatively take a day trip to the beautiful Isles of Scilly by air from nearby Lands’ End Airport, or via the small walk-on ferry from Penzance. Beach 3¾ miles. Shop, pub and restaurant ½ mile.
