Located in Helston, Cornwall, this newly refurbished Grade II listed farmhouse offers a blend of contemporary style and traditional charm. The property can accommodate up to six guests and features original windows and a grand front door that enhance its farmhouse appeal. The spacious kitchen is designed for family gatherings, complemented by a relaxed dining room that fosters a warm atmosphere for shared meals. The sitting room and dining room both boast cosy fireplaces with traditional wood burners, perfect for creating a welcoming environment during indoor evenings.

Surrounding the farmhouse is a large garden that provides ample space for dogs to roam and children to play, while adults can enjoy a peaceful retreat. Additionally, the property includes a beautifully restored listed outbuilding at the rear, along with an electric car charging point, catering to modern needs while preserving historical elements. This combination of outdoor space and amenities makes the farmhouse an ideal getaway for families or groups looking to relax and unwind in a picturesque setting.

The nearest village, Gunwalloe, is renowned for its natural beauty and was famously featured in the BBC’s remake of Poldark, showcasing stunning beach scenes. The coastline here is known for its dramatic wild westerly gales and is steeped in maritime history, with numerous shipwrecks and legends of piracy. One notable location, Dollar Cove, derives its name from the wreck of the Spanish ship San Salvador, which sank in 1669 while carrying a treasure trove of silver dollars. Local lore suggests that some of these coins still wash up on the beach, adding an element of intrigue to the area.

In summary, this farmhouse in Helston combines historical significance with modern comforts, making it a unique accommodation option in the South West of England. Its spacious interior, inviting outdoor areas, and proximity to beautiful coastal scenery make it an excellent choice for those seeking both relaxation and adventure.
