The Bell Tower

The elevated position, the huge arched windows and the views make the space seem bigger than it actually is. It’s a very calming space with beautifully curated interiors, lots of books to read (including Du Maurier’s novels), a turntable with records and games to play – rainy days won’t need to be miserable. Find a cream tea waiting in the spruce kitchen with Leach Pottery plates and cups, a posh coffee machine and all the basics for cooking in the cupboards.

The softly coloured bedroom has a big, well-dressed bed and a window looking into the sitting room – leave the door open and plenty of light will flood in – and the gorgeous bathroom is scented with Pure Nuff Stuff. It’s a romantic hideaway for lovers of good design.

Head out to one of Cornwall’s most vibrant, creative communities – an eco-minded hub full of art and culture, independent shops and galleries, amazing places to eat and the fabulous coastline.
