Located in Helston, Cornwall, this stylish 1930s wooden bungalow offers a tranquil retreat for up to four guests. Named after its former owner, Powders Thurburn, a sailor and artist, the bungalow is nestled among whispering pine trees at the confluence of Frenchman's Creek and the Helford River. This picturesque setting exemplifies why Thurburn chose this romantic location, perfect for those seeking serenity by the water's edge.

The interior of the bungalow features a chic design with wooden floors, comprising two bedrooms, including a spacious double bedroom, and a modern kitchen area. The ambiance is both inviting and stylish, making it a comfortable base for a week-long getaway. The property's woodland garden not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also provides stunning views of the glistening waters, while a connecting path leads guests to a private quay for easy access to the river.

For those looking to explore the local area, a scenic walk across the headlands leads to the riverside pub and post office in Helford village. Additionally, guests can take advantage of the ferry service available nearby for river crossings, enhancing the ease of travel between attractions. The location also serves as a gateway to various outdoor activities, including walking along the South West Coast Path.

Just a 30-minute drive away, visitors can discover the aqua-colored waters of Kynance Cove and The Lizard, which are renowned for their natural beauty. This proximity to stunning coastal landscapes allows guests to immerse themselves in the breathtaking scenery of the most southerly point in the UK, making it an ideal destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
