About this property
Tucked away in the wild and beautiful landscape of West Cornwall, The Dovecote is a one-of-a-kind coastal escape. With rolling hills, turquoise seas, and golden beaches nearby, this unique property offers the perfect base for walkers, outdoor explorers, and anyone looking to unwind in peaceful, natural surroundings. The rugged access reflects the remote and peaceful setting – but once you arrive, the views and tranquillity make it well worth the effort. Ideal for nature lovers, walkers, artists, and anyone seeking a true escape with comfort, character, and coastal beauty. Set just off the South West Coast Path, it’s easy to explore hidden coves, rugged cliffs, and some of the area’s most scenic walking routes straight from your doorstep. Within 10 miles, you’ll find surf at Sennen Cove, paddleboarding at Porthcurno, and golden sands to stretch out on. Food lovers will enjoy the local seafood and farm-to-table fare in Newlyn and Penzance, along with locally brewed beers and a mix of traditional pubs and high-quality restaurants.
Inside, The Dovecote offers the feel of a private, design-led hotel suite – with open-plan living and thoughtful, artistic touches. The space features a large king-size bed, a comfortable modern sofa, and a multi-fuel burner to warm up after a day on the coast. The walls are decorated with original artwork created by the owner, adding personality and a strong sense of place. If you fall in love with them, they are available to purchase! The en-suite shower room is accessed through distinctive gothic-shaped stained-glass doors and features a generous walk-in shower, copper basin, and a glimpse of the sea from the window. The compact kitchen area includes a Wonder Oven – combining an air fryer, grill, oven, and more – along with a decent-sized fridge with an ice compartment. While the cooking space is limited, it’s well-equipped for preparing light meals during your stay.
Outside, you’ll find a quiet, secluded decked area with a private hot tub – a peaceful spot to soak and unwind under the star.
