Fabulous sea views from this exceptionally spacious, south-facing detached house reach from the Rame peninsula in one direction to St George’s Island at Looe in the other. A gate at the end of the large, enclosed garden gives private access to Downderry beach, a paradise for children with sand for castle building, rock pools for exploring, and sailing, windsurfing and surfing year-round (see photograph). Sundown is perfect for families to share with plenty of space inside and out. The kitchen/dining-room is fully equipped for large gatherings, with an electric range cooker, a built-in coffee maker and a separate wine fridge. The large sitting-room has inviting sofas, a modern wood-burner and a hideaway gaming-area. A ground floor bedroom has ‘zip and link’ (double or twin) beds and an en suite shower-room (also accessed from the hall). Upstairs, the huge master bedroom has a sitting-area, an en suite bathroom and separate dressing-room, and patio doors that open onto a large, glass-fenced balcony – an amazing sun-trap in good weather. Four more bedrooms share an en suite shower-room and family bathroom. Things get better still; broadband access is provided, and the double garage houses half-size table-tennis and pool tables, air hockey and table-football to keep you occupied whatever the weather. The village has a beachside pub with an excellent restaurant, a cafe, a coffee shop and a small general store. Alternatively, head to the delightful twin villages of Kingsand and Cawsand where pretty terraced fishermen’s cottages jostle for space in narrow lanes and ancient smugglers’ pubs still ply their trade. Or take a shark fishing trip from Looe harbour, enjoy the world famous St Mellion golf course, walk through beautiful Mount Edgcumbe Estate or along the cliffs at Whitsand Bay. There is plenty to do in this hidden corner of Cornwall but most of all you will enjoy the delights of Sundown itself. Please note that the changeover times are 4pm on arrival and 10am on departure.
