Surrounded by a
stunning landscape, where Cornish meadows and craggy moorland meet the sea this
former Victorian blacksmiths cottage offers superb luxury holiday
accommodation. Set in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty a mile to
the west of the pretty harbour town of St Ives, this unique granite property
has extensive gardens with sweeping sea views and comfortably sleeps four.
It is less than a five minute drive or just a twenty minute countryside walk from the
cottage to the sandy beaches, superb restaurants and eclectic galleries of St
Ives. Cafes, bars and shops line the cobbled streets. Consisting of twelve
individual cottages most of which are privately owned second homes Trowan
occupies a secluded cliff top position and has far reaching sea views, to
the west is Godrevy Head and the lighthouse which is reputed to have
been the inspiration for novelist Virginia Wolf. Colonies of grey seals are
frequently seen at The Carracks which lies to the east between Trowan and Zennor. Simply step out of the front door for a choice of beautiful walks or easy access to the coastal path. There is private parking for two cars at the entrance to the hamlet.
Higher Trowan is perfectly located for a restorative and
relaxing break at any time throughout the year.
After a day of sea and surf enjoy a glass of wine on the patio while you
watch the sun go down. On winter evenings snuggle on the sofa in front of the
fire. Gather the family round the big
farmhouse table and stay in for supper, visit the farmers market, fishmonger or
any of the half dozen local farm shops for the freshest, top quality West
Country produce. As a special treat why not let our personal chef prepare and cook
everything for you. Our grocery delivery option provides a stress free start to
your break, complete an online shop and
arrive to find all your groceries, checked, unpacked and put away for you.

A fantastic base for our stay. Ther cottage had everything we needed, including beautiful views.
Walks and scenery are stunning, and we felt really at home in this fantastic cottage.
It was such a delight to stay in your cottage, welcoming and cosy, a special place to stay.
Watching the sun set from the garden and seeing the dolphins on Porthmeor beach were just a couple of the highlights. Our first family holiday, thank you for making it so special.
An amazing cottage, tasteful, comfortable and equiped with everything that we needed.
Two fabulous weeks here, everything we wished for and more.
