It is rumoured that this lovely building was once used by Sir Walter Raleigh to house his horses and cart during his time as elected Burgess of the Borough of Mitchell.

The vaulted ceiling and warm, atmospheric beams are delightful. Though minimalist in design throughout, Cornish Cart House is eye-catching and will certainly bring a smile to your face. Every detail has been brilliantly thought through. The bathroom is immaculate, complete with a large walk-in shower and fabulous marble effect tiles, another beautiful aspect.

On Cornwall’s Atlantic Coast, the harbour town of Newquay has previously been voted as ‘One of the Nation’s Favourite Seaside Towns’ in a prestigious Which survey, ‘Best Family Holiday Destination’ by readers of Coast Magazine and ‘Best Seaside Towns for Families’ by Days Out with the Kids. Newquay is one of Cornwall’s favourite holiday destinations with some of the finest sandy beaches in the country. If boasts some fantastic restaurants, seven miles of golden sand and many attractions. It’s laid back charm is delightful. The town is home to some of the world’s best water sports competitions including the Boardmasters Festival and surfing championships.
Slightly further down the rugged North Cornwall Coast lies the lovely village of Perranporth. Nestled amongst rolling hills in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Perranporth offers three miles of golden sands, clear waters, spectacular cliff walks and famous surf. Perranporth Beach is beautiful. You can take a surfing course at the well reputed Watering Hole Surf School. There are many events and activities, from the famous annual triathlon to the annual music festival Tunes in the Dunes. Perranporth is surrounded by countryside that inspired Winston Graham’s swashbuckling Poldark novels. The South West Coast Path can be accessed just a few minutes from the village offering arguably some of the most spectacular coastal views and ocean vistas in the country. You can take a 3.5 mile walk on the path from Perranporth to St Agnes experiencing the mining heritage as well as exploring the birdlife and wild flowers. The Perranporth Museum is very interesting with displays of the mining history, shipwrecks and lots more including an actual old Cornish cottage kitchen.
If you head in the opposite direction, you may like to visit St Austell or Mevagissey. The curves of St Austell Bay are golden with beaches and are a haven for watersports. Mevagissey is a delight with its working fishing harbour plus there are the lovely suntraps of Portmellon and Goran Haven. Not to be missed is the enchanting Fowey with its little ferry boats. The south coast is a green and gold tapestry of wooded hills and secluded coves where enchanting fishing villages are hiding. There are pilgrim trails, sleepy farms and ancient stones. You can visit the Eden Project, sail in a regatta or ride, as Daphne du Maurier did, far from crowds on a moor as old as time.
