With secret beaches, secluded coves, dramatic cliff walks and country views, Lewannick Farm is in an enviable, peaceful holiday location, surrounded by a network of footpaths near to the edge of Cubert Common. These single-storey, semi-detached barn conversions (refs 30127 and 31299), adjacent to the owners’ home, are close to the north coast but also has easy access to tour the whole of Cornwall. A small garden in each property provides the perfect spot for an al fresco dinner or lunch, but with several pubs and restaurants within walking distance, you may prefer to visit one for local food and drink.

The village of Holywell has a surf school and hire shop, pubs serving local produce and a beach shop. Horse riding, cycling, diving and sea fishing are all available locally.
