Marnylunn

A luxurious residence with far reaching sea views offering a real home-from-home any time of year, and in the idyllic and tranquil setting of Gillan Creek, Marnylunn means 'mariners cove' in Cornish, which is very apt with charming Flushing Cove only 150 yards from your front door. This beautiful property is simply perfect for spending time in, on, or near the water - whether it be wild swimming or in your heated pool, sailing, kayaking, blustery walks along the coastal path or getting back to nature with the ones you love, this is hidden Cornwall at its best.

This gorgeous property has been very comfortably refurbished by the owner, light and airy in the summer but cosy in the winter. Sheltering in this romantic Cornish landscape you will find your true holiday destination. As you enter the property it opens out in front of you and the house is light and spacious. The kitchen is well-equipped with a large American fridge/freezer, a gas range cooker and Nespresso coffee machine.

Leading off the kitchen, past the drinks counter with built-in fridge, is the large dining-room which seats 12 people (please watch your step and mind your head on the ceiling). Open the bi-fold doors in the warmer months where steps lead down to the pool area, or just enjoy take in the view through the picture windows.

The cosy sitting-room with Sonos sound system has a simply gorgeous sofa to sink into with views over the pool, garden and of course the Helford River beyond. The wood-burning stove is a delight for those cooler evenings and ideal after a swim in the cove. Additional comfortable seating is provided by a number of armchairs which can be pulled up too.

The house has three bedrooms all with fabulous super-king size beds and White Company linen. The main bedroom boasts the best views of course and has an en suite bathroom. The further two bedrooms each have their own shower-room and 'zip and link' beds that can be configured as two singles if required and every bathroom has lovely Faith and Nature soap and shower gel too. There is also a handy study space and good WIFI should you need to work on holiday or perhaps tuck yourself away to carry out research - maybe on the night sky which can be astonishing as this is an area of low light density (please watch your head on the low ceiling when descending the stairs from the study to the entrance hall).

The annexe, just across from the front door, provides the perfect extra living space for larger parties, teenagers or grandparents. Set above the garage on the first floor it is wonderfully tranquil. There is a super-king bed (also 'zip and link'), shower-room, kitchenette and living-room with views over the house and to the sea. There is also occasional sleeping for an extra two guests on the day beds in the annexe, please let our office know if you require these beds when booking.

Babes in arms up to six months old are welcome.
