Georgian Coastal Villa

The Coastal Villa is a big house by the sea hidden away on the beautiful Cornish Roseland peninsula. The house and garden overlook Gerrans Bay and Portscatho.

Situated in 2 acres of private grounds, this pretty part Georgian house is an intimate coastal escape for families, couples or a group of friends. The house is split into apartments and suites.

The house is also available to rent as a whole, ideal for a corporate retreat, a family house party or a wedding, and is the ultimate mix for a relaxing holiday or short break.

There is a small team of staff to look after guests and the owners who live just across from the main house are also on hand too.
