Footsteps to the beach - Hot tub - Fireplace

With its stunning spaces both inside and out, and an incredible position overlooking Praa Sands, Little Cottage epitomises all that dreamy seaside holidays should be; the perfect place for friends and families to connect and unwind on Cornwall’s beautiful south coast.

Designed by award winning architect Alex Michaelis and settling on a huge private plot with nothing but its own garden separating it from a sweeping expanse of sand and ocean, Little Cottage offers a light-flooded and spacious interior, where wide views of both sea and sky are permanently on display. This is a home you can truly unwind in. Open plan living with sink-in sofas and a wood burner means you’ll be comfy no matter the weather, while the kitchen/diner which opens to the front terrace through vast sliding doors creates the quintessential indoor / outdoor lifestyle of a true beachside retreat. There are four fabulous en-suite bedrooms and a separate self-contained bolthole for those who’d like even more privacy, providing ample space for large family groups. Outside is just as impressive, with an uninterrupted vantage point over Hendra beach. And when you’re not soaking away in the hot tub or playing table tennis with the kids, you can stroll to the bottom of the garden and be on the sand in under a minute.

Located in Cornwall’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Little Cottage is exceptionally well placed to enjoy all that the south coast has to offer. St Michael's Mount with its tidal causeway and subtropical gardens is a delight for both young and old in Marazion, and if you fancy treating yourselves to an excellent meal you can take your pick from a host of terrific restaurants in both the harbour towns of Porthleven and St Ives. Of course, you’d be forgiven for preferring to stay put too as the south west coast path, beach and waves are just 40 metres from your doorstep so you amble, sunbathe, explore, swim and surf to your heart’s content.

Little Cottage welcomes two dogs. Please note that the garden isn’t completely enclosed and has a path that leads straight on to the beach
This property sleeps 8 adults and 2 children (under the age of 16)

2 pets accepted: Please advise the Luxury Coastal team directly if you would like us to host your pet after completing your booking. A charge of £40 per pet per stay/week will be applicable and required before your stay.

Multi generational holiday

The house is beautiful and in a stunning location, the views and sounds are breathtaking. It has the look and feel of a very comfortable family holiday home rather than an anonymous rental property. It is full of light and character and very well equipped. The only real negative is the parking, we did have issues with cars blocking us in.

Fab Xmas at this house

The house has the perfect view practically on the beach. Brilliant for families as lots for kids to do inc trampoline, table tennis, slide and indoor footy table. Hot tub was a bonus for us all. Beds were very clean and comfy great to be able to do our washing and drying. Great architecture only thing we all said we would change is to lower the kitchen island which seemed way too high we are mostly 5 foot 2 and 5’5 but even my daughters partner at 5’11 found it high. Great baths but once sat in you can’t see the gorgeous sea view only the bottom of the window sill if they were raised they’d be perfect. Lovely walks and cafe nearby owners did a great Job thinking of everything you’d need. Lovely toiletries left and we all had a wonderful Xmas in this stunning house I really liked the books about the history of the house and area lovely special touch as were the mince pies cream and prosecco
