Polcreek Farmhouse is a splendid typically Cornish 17th century family house, in a tranquil setting at the end of a lane, 1¼ miles from Veryan.

It is very private, only the occasional farmer herding sheep passes by.

This is a wonderful place for a carefree large family gathering, or group of friends.

The big living room has an open fire with the original slate and the equally big dining room has a sensible slate floor, through to the farmhouse-style kitchen with breakfast table and stools; there is also a ground floor WC and, ten paces from the kitchen door, an external room with shower toilet and basin ideal for sandy bodies.

Head upstairs to the four bedrooms, a king-size double and three twin rooms, lovely views from up here, but mind that low lintel on the landing! Also, a family bathroom.

A peaceful family-friendly place in a great position for enjoying the lovely coastline.

There is a small front garden and ½ acre of mown grassy space with rustic table and chairs.

Carne and Pendower beaches are a mile away (the two merge at low-tide to give a mile of sand).

National Trust land surrounds the house to a mile radius.

If you can drag yourself away nearby St.Mawes and Mevagissey are worth a visit, along with the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project.
