About this property
Sennen Cove 2 miles. This is quite simply one of the most outstanding holiday homes in Cornwall, set within acres of private grounds in a stunning clifftop location and with private access to Gwenver Beach and Sennen Cove. Cragford offers exceptional accommodation in one of the most beautiful areas of the UK, just four miles along the coast from Lands End. The spectacular far-reaching sea views can be enjoyed as you approach the property along the private lane, but cannot be fully appreciated until you arrive. Four steps lead down to the front door and as you enter you will arrive into an impressive slate hallway. The main living area with back-to-back sitting rooms, command the most stunning sea views. Whatever time of the year, you will never tire of relaxing here whilst enjoying the natural world and the Atlantic Ocean right in front of you. Alternatively, the home cinema will provide plenty of entertainment whilst curling up on one of the many cosy sofas. The spacious and well-equipped kitchen and dining area, offers a large table for all to sit around whilst enjoying breakfast and planning the day ahead. The accommodation offers flexible sleeping arrangements, including two twin rooms, a family room featuring an adjoining room with a childs single and cot, and last but certainly not least, the master bedroom. This incredible room has to be seen to believed, with its sheer size, opulence and feature domed window, offering amazing views. The ceiling has been painstakingly painted to create an almost 3D representation of sleeping on the deck of a galleon, on a starry night. The en-suite bathroom, boasts a unique freestanding bath which is fitting for such a special room. Whichever guests are lucky enough to stay in this room, are sure to get an experience they will never forget. Outside there are many areas to sit and relax, as well as the added bonus of a sauna. A stroll down to Gwenver Beach provides some of the best surfing conditions in Cornwall, and at low tide it joins up with its neighbour Sennen Cove, one of the finest stretches of sand in the county. With a well-known pub and a first-class restaurant, the area makes for a delightful evening walk, followed by an excellent meal before returning to this truly stunning house. Cragford offers exceptional accommodation in a beautiful location and can be enjoyed all- year-round.

The experience would have been perfect if the place is very maintained.

The main living area was spacious and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and adequate but one burner on the cooker did not work. The utility was very well used after numerous trips to the beach. The main issues were with the downstairs bedroom where my husband I and slept.One of the beds collapsed on the second night as a temporary repair on one of the legs broke off. This necessitated using the sofa bed next door which was very uncomfortable.Without this we would have been one bed short as there were 8 adults staying in the house.The light over the washbasin did not work and the main light switch only activated the bedside light and this depended on how the bedside light switch had been left. At times you had to go into a dark room and feel around to switch the bedside light on. Why was there no main room light? The curtains did not meet as one of the sliders did not work ( this was also a problem with one of the curtains in the main living room also). The heating was poor with only 1 radiator working. The shower opposite could not be heat controlled and was scaldingly hot.This was mentioned in the visitors book back in May 2023.This has to be a priority as it would be possible to be hurt using this shower. As a consequence we had to use one of the ensuite showers upstairs. The lighting was difficult to use on the landing and stairs. The feature bedroom was spectacular but there was no way of blocking out the light from the big window at night. Again the lighting was inadequate with the only lighting in the bedroom part, being 2 bedside lights one of which did not work. It seems pity that a house that is in such a good position and well designed is not better maintained.

( he was very helpful and made our stay even better) The property is amazing in terms of location and position. Just find the general lack of maintenance strange when paying top price . The main bedroom is amazing but has no curtains and the bath leaked for example.
