Relax and inhale the sea air from a spacious, open-plan apartment with panoramic views over the iconic Godrevy Lighthouse and St. Ives Bay. In summer, enjoy a glass of fizz on the balcony as the sun sets over the sea; in winter come and watch the waves crash over Godrevy island. Tucked away on the coast in a designated Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty, only ½ mile from Gwithian beach and with St. Ives just across the bay, enjoy peace and tranquility in the heart of the Cornish countryside. This apartment has been reimagined from the annexe in my family home, spread over 1 ½ floors with its own private entrance and generous balcony space. The light, airy and modern space consists of an open-plan, boho-inspired bedroom, cosy lounge and fully-equipped kitchen spacious enough to cook up a romantic meal together. French doors open straight onto the balcony complete with patio furniture to enjoy the sea views from with a glass of wine. Downstairs you'll find a generously-sized bathroom with walk-in shower, vanity unit with his & hers sinks and a separate toilet. The property features keyless entry and there is ample parking on the driveway outside.

When I'm not travelling around Europe I love to be back home in Cornwall, and have always enjoyed hosting people from all over the world in my home, showing them Cornwall's hidden gems. I've spent the last 4 years travelling around 29 different countries in my van, and am now taking a short break from travelling before planning my next trip. I'm a photographer who particularly enjoys photo-documentaries, and if I'm not working on my next blog you'll more than likely find me outside working on my van. As this is an annexe adjoined to my home, you might occasionally see me pottering around in the garden or working on my van out front. I love to entertain, and have hosted guests for many years in my family home. You will have the space entirely to yourselves, but feel free to pop over for a drink and a socially-distanced chat if you'd like some tips about the local area. If there are any issues during your stay, I’m only a message or a phone call away.

The small village of Gwithian is nestled at the far end of St Ives Bay, a 3 mile stretch of golden sand which is widely recognised as one of Cornwall's finest surfing beaches, which is just a 3 minute drive or 10 minute walk from your doorstep. Just 20 minutes away by car is the beautiful harbour town of St Ives, but you're never more than an hour away from any of Cornwall's iconic landmarks. You can pick up the coastal path nearby, spend the day on the beach, learn to surf at GAS, the Gwithian Academy of Surfing, or enjoy a real ale and some delicious food in the village pub. Whatever you enjoy, Gwithian is the perfect base to explore the area from, and there are many places to visit if you enjoy local Cornish food, or simply just want to enjoy the nature and Cornwall's beautiful landscapes. The coastal path is approximately a 15-20 minute walk away (1 mile). The nearest main bus stop is 2 miles away in Connor Downs and the closest train stations are Hayle and Camborne (4 miles in either direction). A bus service runs in and out of Gwithian roughly three times a day.
