About this property
Millbrook 1.6 miles. The Cabin is a well-equipped single-storey holiday cabin nestled in Treninnow Cliff near Millbrook, Cornwall. Ideal for couples or friends seeking an off-the-grid getaway with stunning sea views, proximity to Dartmoor National Park, and allows pets. Park up at the top of the cliff and pause to take in the sweeping outlook across Whitsand Bay before making your way down to this secluded retreat, where uninterrupted sea views set the tone for a stay shaped by simplicity and coastal calm. Step inside and discover a rustic wooden interior filled with warmth and character, where the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space is arranged for slow days and relaxed evenings, with comfortable seating positioned to make the most of those mesmerising views, including a sofa bed that allows friends to share the space with ease, while a selection of books, a radio and speakers invite you to truly switch off. The kitchen blends practicality with charm, offering everything needed for easy meals, from the gas oven and hob to the fridge and ice maker, while the kettle and toaster make mornings feel unhurried as you watch the light shift across the water. Drift through to the double bedroom, where waking up to the sea stretching endlessly beyond the windows feels like a luxury in itself, and freshen up in the shower room, finished with calming blue hues that echo the coastal setting. Step outside into the unenclosed garden and let the day unfold at its own pace, stretching out on the sun loungers, sharing meals at the picnic bench, or lifting the binoculars to scan the horizon for passing boats and changing skies. Begin your mornings with a gentle walk down to the beach below, cup in hand as the tide reveals sand at low water and the rhythm of the waves sets a soothing backdrop, before returning to the cabin to relax in the quiet. When you feel like exploring further afield, Dartmoor National Park offers wide open landscapes, rugged tors and winding paths waiting to be uncovered, while the South Cornwall coast invites scenic walks and moments spent soaking up the sea air. After a day spent outdoors, return to The Cabin, settle back into the stillness of the space and let the vast sea views carry you into a peaceful evening overlooking the bay. Access is down a path good shoes or boots recommended. Light luggage best.
The cabin is 150 mts from the South West coast path; Ideal for walkers, good fishing on the beach and surfing.

Set in a bowl of hills at the head of a tidal creek that opens out into the Tamar Estuary, opposite the great naval city of Plymouth, Millbrook is located on the Rame Peninsula, “Cornwall’s Forgotten Corner.” Bounded by the Lynher and Tamar rivers, Plymouth Sound and the open sea, the area is deeply rural and designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has a good range of shops and pubs, and close by are the pretty coastal villages of Kingsand and Cawsand, from which a seasonal ferry will take you directly to Plymouth’s historic Barbican. Along the southern edges of the peninsula are miles of beautiful walks with glorious views towards Rame Head. Just a mile south of Millbrook lies Whitsand Bay with its miles of uncrowded sandy rnli‑patrolled beach and dramatic cliffs. A superb base for discovering the wild side of Cornwall.
