    “A beautiful warm and comfortable home perfect for our group of seven The house was dressed for Christmas throughout and looked magical!”

    The kitchen had everything you need (and more) to cook for the holidays. The host is incredibly thoughtful and a great communicator. We would highly recommend Pickney House and hope to stay again.

The property

Pickney House is a contemporary, four-bedroom property in Killigarth, Cornwall, close to the fishing community of Polperro.

Pickney House offers eight guests the ideal setting for a Cornish break while being conveniently located close to the beach and a hub of amenities; it also enjoys views of both the shore and the surrounding countryside, offering the best of both worlds.

Before ascending the steps and heading indoors, park your car on the private driveway which also has a convenient EV charging station (separate charge applies): unload your belongings and venture into the light-filled sitting area, offering the ideal spot to unwind after a day of travelling - sink into the plush sofas with the woodburning stove lit in the background.

Proceed to the sleek kitchen/diner, which features dark grey cabinetry, a geometric backsplash, a plethora of cutting-edge appliances, as well as a useful utility room; prepare and enjoy meals here, whilst planning your upcoming itinerary.

If you prefer outdoor dining, prepare the patio table and barbecue for an alfresco supper while your pet securely explores the enclosed garden; before getting ready for bed, watch the sun set over Cornwall with a glass of wine in hand.

Choose among four beautiful, well-appointed bedrooms as the night draws in, including two king-size rooms with en-suite shower rooms, both of which include a Smart TV, and two twin rooms that are ideal for the children of your party.

Prepare for the coming days in the stylish bathroom, complete with complimentary toiletries, marble tiles, and sleek, black fixtures, before heading out on foot to stock up on necessities or to eat out at one of the many restaurants in Polperro, such as The Harbour Green House Restaurant and Bar, Bean and Scone tearoom, and the Blue Peter Inn.

Stay in Polperro for the day to enjoy the villages many attractions, including the Polperro Model Village, the Heritage Coast's breath-taking walking trails, and Polperro Beach's modest but sandy terrain.

Travel to Looe and consider taking a tour of the Old Guildhall Museum & Gaol, enjoying a dip and a relax at Talland Bay (beach cafe with seasonal opening times), people watch along Banjo Pier, or visit the Wild Futures, The Monkey Sanctuary, which offers a variety of fun activities for the whole family to participate in.

Finish your journey in Fowey, to tour the aquarium, beautiful river, and golden shoreline of Readymoney Cove, before returning home for sundowners.

About the location

POLPERRO

Looe 4 miles.

Polperro and nearby Looe on the south coast of Cornwall’s coastline is a renowned tourist area giving visitors a unique holiday area to explore. Polperro is a historic fishing village nestling at the head of a long valley leading down to the sea. The sheltered fishing harbour with its surrounding jumble of quaint, whitewashed cottages, draws visitors from around the world. Walk the narrow streets, watch the fishermen land their catch, check the Smugglers Museum, take a leisurely lunch overlooking the harbour and then walk the clifftops for a taste of the spectacular coastal scenery. This is a magical area with much to see and do. The working fishing port of Looe is just 4 miles away and the delights of Cornwall's far west are easily accessible via the nearby Boddinnick ferry to Fowey and beyond with the local area well served with bus and ferry services. The perfect holiday location, a jewel in the Cornish coastline now denoted by Cornwall County Council as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, of historic interest and heritage importance, as well as a conservation area.

Note: No Stag or Hen parties.
