The property
A truly special holiday experience awaits you at this beautiful, elegant Grade II listed converted barn close to Watergate Bay and Mawgan Porth.
Stylish and luxurious, The Hideaway is the ultimate couples' retreat, with no expense spared.
From the lofty, open plan living area, the eye is drawn immediately to the galleried bedroom, lavishly furnished with a freestanding bathtub, super king bed and crisp white linens.
Downstairs, a sleek and well-equipped kitchen leads off from the restful lounge area, where a generous log burner forms the hub of this romantic retreat.
The terrace outside - complete with ornamental pond, loungers and a chiminea; provides a very pretty spot in which to enjoy a morning coffee or evening sundowner.
Guests can also enjoy wandering through the estate's orchard and paddock, as well as the woodland and ruins of the grand manor house which once took pride of place just a short walk away.
Blissfully peaceful and secluded, you are unlikely to see anyone else during your stay, perhaps only the property owners or guests of the adjoining barn, the Lost Barn.
When you are ready to explore further, the beautiful north Cornish coast is just a short drive away, offering fantastic walks, stunning scenery and some of the best surfing conditions in the UK.
But if all this sounds a bit too energetic for you, then why not simply relax and unwind with a bit of pampering at either the Bedruthan Steps or the adults-only Scarlet Hotel.
Foodies are spoilt for choice in this part of the world, too, with Jamie Oliver's Fifteen Restaurant at Watergate Bay, and Rick Stein and Paul Ainsworth's restaurants in nearby Padstow.
