Situated close to the South West Coast Path, this stunning property makes a great base for eager walkers, cyclists, nature lovers and water sports fans exploring a glorious part of West Cornwall. Offering tasteful accommodation for up to seven guests, the property makes a lovely holiday home for families and friends seeking a laid-back getaway with mesmerising views. Steps lead down to the beautiful beach which is popular with sunbathers and surfers, and there are some great pubs and cafes in the nearby villages. Other local attractions include the National Trust estate at Godolphin, the Poldark Mine, St Michael’s Mount off the coast of Marazion and the famous Flambards Theme Park, all within 10 miles.

Arriving at this elegant property, a sloping pathway leads through the mature front garden and to the front door. Once inside, the spacious L-shaped open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has been beautifully furnished and has been decorated with art by a talented local artist. The light-filled lounge has plenty of seating with sea views, and makes a wonderful space to settle back, watch a movie or chat into the night. There’s a sociable central dining space, and the beautifully designed kitchen is fully equipped and features lots of workspace so you can prepare a memorable family feast. Two of the property’s four bedrooms are on the ground floor: a single room and a king-size room, both with built-in wardrobes. The ground floor also features a stylish shower room and a bathroom. Heading upstairs, you will find the two final bedrooms, each with ample storage space and a window seat so you can admire the gorgeous scenery. Both rooms have a super-king-size bed, one of which can be made up as twin beds on request.

Stepping outside, the large front garden has an extensive lawn with mature shrubs and a charming patio area with outdoor furniture and a BBQ, providing a great spot for dining alfresco and taking in the sea views.

Pooh Corner literally took our breath away from the moment we pulled up in the car. Firstly to be greeted with a stunning garden, complete with quaint pathways, well loved rockerys, a designated wet suit area and a patio for our family to enjoy a bbq or three. Then the real magic, turn around to see the views across Praa Sands beach and soak up thRead moreis tiny piece of paradise along the south coast. The house itself far exceeded our expectations in terms of size and equipment. This really was a home from home, beautifully decorated from top to bottom with tasteful touches at every turn. With sea views from almost every window it was difficult to tear yourself away. The owners of Pooh Corner had obviously created this wonderful property with love, thinking of everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay in comfort, even down to the most thoughtful welcome as you arrive through the doors. The only negative we could think of was the fact we had to go home but we will most definitely be back. The Harvey Family July 2024 Hide

My family (mother, sister, myself) stayed for one week. It's a lovely spacious property with a view to die for! It is decorated beautifully and almost everything seems to have been thought of, with all the appliances and comforts that one could wish for in a holiday cottage. Lovely crisp bed linen and large fluffy towels, continual hot water, plRead moreenty of comfy chairs and a big dining table. The best television I've encountered in a holiday cottage and good wifi, large freezer, plus large dish washer, microwave, nespresso machine etc. The neat and large garden is spectacular - clearly tended with love. The view is just magical, although the sea was a bit further away than we were expecting from the photographs - a 15 minute walk for us. It was hard to leave at the end of the week and I would definitely return for another visit. Hide

Pooh Corner is a real gem. It sits in a beautifully elevated position with uninterrupted sea view which you never get tired of come rain or shine. The beach is fabulous and quiet, and is dog friendly except for July and August when restrictions apply. The house is a lovely comfortable open plan space perfect for family or friend groups. The ownRead moreers clearly love it and have made it feel like a real home from home. We absolutely loved it. Highly recommended. Hide
