The property

Piskies Magic Home is a distinctive and surprisingly spacious retreat nestled into a Cornish hillside in the historic riverside town of Penryn, thoughtfully created for shared experiences, special celebrations and time well spent together.

Drawing inspiration from Cornwall’s folklore and the playful piskies that lend the home its name, this is far more than a holiday house – it’s a place where memories are made.

From the outside, the property is quietly unassuming, reflecting the gentle, elusive nature of the piskies themselves.

Step through the door, however, and its character slowly reveals itself.

Built into the hillside and spanning two levels, the home opens into bright, generously sized interiors filled with light, charm, and subtle, whimsical details throughout.

Ideal for birthday get‑togethers, surprise celebrations, girly breaks, and groups of friends, Piskies Magic Home provides plenty of space to relax, reconnect and enjoy each other’s company.

Celebration packages can be arranged on request, making it a wonderful choice for marking life’s milestones in a truly memorable way.

At the centre of the home is a spacious living and dining area, designed for long conversations, shared meals, and easy evenings together.

The sofas and Smart TV add warmth and comfort after days exploring the coast, while the well‑equipped kitchen makes cooking for your group simple and sociable.

Facilities include an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer and wine chiller, ensuring everything you need for a relaxed stay is close at hand.

The accommodation is arranged over the ground and lower‑ground floors and comfortably sleeps eight guests across four stylishly refurbished double bedrooms.

Each room has been thoughtfully designed as a private sanctuary, complete with an ultra‑smart projector system featuring an Amazon Fire TV Stick and access to Netflix, YouTube, Disney+ and more.

Galaxy projectors in every bedroom add a magical finishing touch, creating a calming atmosphere for restful nights.

A standout feature of the home can be found in the lounge, where a mystic merlinite (indigo gabbro) sphere takes pride of place.

Traditionally linked to grounding, intuition and emotional balance, it invites guests to pause, reflect and enjoy the gentle meditation guidance displayed nearby – a subtle tribute to Cornwall’s spiritual heritage and the soothing energy of the space.

A bathroom on the lower‑ground floor features a bath with shower over, basin and WC, alongside convenient laundry facilities, combining comfort with practicality.

Outdoors, an enclosed patio with garden furniture offers a tranquil spot for morning coffee, outdoor dining or evening drinks, with views across countryside and ancient oak trees.

To the front, a small garden enjoys the early sunshine, setting a peaceful tone for the day ahead.

Penryn itself is full of character, shaped by its maritime past and lined with independent shops, cafés and riverside pubs.

Just two miles away, Falmouth boasts sandy beaches, boat trips and well‑known attractions including Pendennis Castle and the National Maritime Museum Cornwall.

Truro, Cornwall’s cathedral city, is also within easy reach, while walkers can enjoy the South West Coast Path, the creeks of the Helford River, and nearby Trebah and Glendurgan Gardens.

Whether you’re celebrating something special, gathering close friends or simply looking for space to reset and recharge, Piskies Magic Home offers a truly distinctive Cornish escape – a place where the magic is gentle, unexpected and deeply felt.

EPC Rating: Band D
