The property
This beautifully presented barn conversion with pretty country garden is the perfect holiday home for family or friends, set in the hamlet of Trescowe just a couple of minutes in the car from the sandy beach at Praa Sands.
Eldertree flaunts stylish reverse level accommodation and a vaulted beamed ceiling within the living area.
The welcoming open plan living room on the first floor has a cosy wood burner.
Cook up a storm on the Range in the oak crafted kitchen and gather around the generous dining table with a cream tea or pasty.
After the day's adventures enjoy a soak or shower in one of the three bathrooms and recline in the comfy bedrooms; the master bedroom has a door to the patio and pretty, private, enclosed garden with a sunshiny lawn, ideal for children to play and barbecues.
The seaside village of Praa Sands is just two and half miles away with a stunning beach, Beachside bar and the south west coastal path which takes you towards Marazion or in the opposite direction Porthleven which is a lovely harbour town.
Marazion, with its stretch of sandy beach around Mounts Bay has a myriad of galleries, gift shops, cafes and traditional inns.
St Michael's Mount, reached by foot across the cobbled causeway or ferry boat at high water makes for a great day's exploration.
This part-time isle has a dinky harbour and gardens leading to the fortress at the peak.
There are lots of things to see and do, and you will be returning to a peaceful haven at the end of the day.

About the location
PRAA SANDS
Marazion 4.5 miles ; Helston 6 miles ; Porthleven 5 miles
The village of Praa Sands sits on the south coast in between Helston and Marazion. Praa Sands is known for its mile-long sandy beach and excellent surfing conditions. There is a bar/restaurant overlooking the beach – the perfect spot for lunch with a view or sunset drinks – a Post Office and general stores, beach cafe with fish & chips, and a beach/surf shop stocked with everything you could need for a great day at the beach. Praa Sands is also home to a Golf and Country Club, from where the most wonderful sea vista can be enjoyed whilst you play. Just inland from the beach is Pengersick Castle, the tower of which dates back to the 16th century. It is said that Pengersick is haunted, and that the ghost of a monk has been seen wandering the grounds! The house at Pengersick is rumoured to be the birth place of John Carter, the self styled King of Prussia and a tunnel which leads from the house to the beach was apparently once used by smugglers.
