“On arrival we met Andrea the owner as we was a little early but she was very welcoming and let us go straight in.”

On entry we had be given a lovely welcome pack of Cornish goodies. The cottage was beautiful the decor was amazing you could tell you was by the coast which put us in good spirits for a great stay. Andrea was on hand if we had needed her help we would highly recommend this place and will definitely go back.

“The month has flown by.”

Andrea has been a dear friend of ours for many a year. She has taken us to some fantastic places but jumunjy has to right at the top of the list. A place and Thai food not to be missed.

“Stayed last year at Andrea’s other property Palm Lodge & loved this just much.”

Beautifully decorated property with everything you could possibly need, lovely and thoughtful welcome gifts left for your arrival, even received a text when the property was ready for an early arrival. Ideal location for exploring and within walking distance to the awesome beach. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning

Peter September 2022

“The private, secluded garden is a huge benefit.”

We are both large and struggled to get into the shower through the narrow gap in the screen. We would visit again and recommend to our friends. Peter.

“The Lighthouse is ideal as a small holiday home, it has everything you want in it plus the luxury of a beautiful garden.”

This is my second visit and I am sure it won't be my last.

“The cottage is lovely and comfortable with beautifully added marine elements.”

Well equipped. The garden is big and beautiful with amazing exotic plants. The cottage and surroundings are very clean and tidy. The whole place it’s very relaxing and the host is very welcoming. The parking is provided, however it’s a bit narrow and it’s difficult to manoeuvre it the available space, the road view a bit restricted. Cottage is located in a quiet place surrounded by plants. The beach is big and beautiful. I strongly recommend this place and I would like to come back in the future.

“We have known Andrea for many years and have stop with her and her husband ozzie when we been on hoilday down here in Penzance.”

A great little place near to a beach. The standard is very high and you get a surprise of a welcome gift too. It's warm and comfortable and has its own little garden, to sit out and relax in. We have booked again for next year.

Sharon September 2020

“First visit to Cornwall, in midst of covid problems so I literally booked the cheapest cottage I could find so that if we got put into a local lock down and I couldnt get a refund, my losses would be limited.”

This cottage would be worthy of a higher price - it was lovely, I just loved the decor and if I was a single person I would live in this cottage and the only thing I would change is the location of the TV

- Sharon, September 2020
Irene September 2020

“The Lighthouse was lovely as was the owner who was helpful but not intrusive.”

The area is beautiful with only a 5 minute walk to a beautiful beach with a cafe. Lovely gardens near to visit as well as a lovely garden to sit in at the cottage. Would recommend and would return.

Sarah August 2020

“The Lighthouse cottage was beautiful and the garden was amazing.”

The property is so close to the beach which is wonderful. The Coach & Horses Inn's decor and food was lovely too. Thats's about a 5 minute drive from the cottage. We loved Praa Sands' beach. We travelled to St Ives, Falmouth, Penzance & Porthlevan which is a fishing port and adorable. We will definitely visit Praa Sands and stay at the Lighthouse Cottage again. Andrea who owns the Lighthouse cottage is lovely and was extremely generous with so many gifts. Thank you Andrea xx

Lindsay August 2020

“The cottage, garden and location are second to none.”

The use of the fabulous garden made the stay just perfect. Andrea was a lovely host, couldn’t do enough for us while respecting our privacy. I would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone. I would definitely say a visit to The Minack Theatre is a must and a meal at The Coach and Horses (5 minutes away on the A394) should not be missed. We will definitely be back.

“This property was the ideal place to relax so close to a stunning beach and glorious surroundings.”

The owners were so friendly and helpful. They were there if we needed them but also respected our privacy. We especially enjoyed our private garden which was really beautiful, complete with table, chairs and sun loungers. The Lighthouse itself was beautifully clean with everything we needed and some very thoughtful touches. Also the welcome gifts were a lovely surprise and very much appreciated. A wonderful stay and definitely would return.

Praa Sands Cottages

Set paces away from the mile-long-stretch of sandy beach are these two well-presented cottages, Lighthouse and Palm Lodge. Both cottages are ideally positioned for couples looking to explore an area steeped with natural beauty or simply looking to spend time relaxing on the beach, which houses white sands and turquoise waters. Stepping into the cottages, you will be struck by the bright interior which ensures a welcoming base to come back to each evening. They both feature a sitting area, a quaint dining area and an amply equipped kitchenette, where you will be able to rustle up some delicious treats for you and your loved ones. Be charmed by the coastal mural and the impressive four-poster bed within Lighthouse, while Palm Lodge features a palm tree mural and a refreshing colour palette to match. Look forward to spending your summer evenings upon the patio areas, where you will be able to enjoy a refreshing beverage whilst catching the last glimpses of sunshine. If you don’t feel like cooking one evening, venture out the Sandbar restaurant, where you will find an outstanding dining menu and a breath-taking view to complement. To keep you busy whilst staying at these wonderful cottages, spend an afternoon soaking up the sun at the beach before tackling the famous Cornish waves with your surfboard. Alternatively, brush up on the local history by discovering Pengersick Castle which is rumoured to be one of the most haunted places in Cornwall! These quaint cottages promise a refreshing getaway for two couples looking to get away from their day to day routines.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

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. 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. There are supermarkets and other retail stores in Penzance (8 miles) and Helston (6 miles).
