The details
A short walk from the picturesque Helford River and the South West Coast Path, Boscantle is set in an idyllic location for a relaxing trip to the seaside with family or friends. This six bedroom house has a beautifully furnished interior, coastal views, over an acre of gardens and its own outdoor heated swimming pool.
The interior feels spacious with large, light-filled rooms and beautiful furnishings, there's even a grand piano in the drawing room. There are big, comfortable spaces for relaxing with friends and family, such as the snug with its big squishy sofa and armchairs and a large drawing room. This is a colourful room with beautiful green walls, bold prints on the soft furnishings and with an eclectic collection of artwork. There’s a large kitchen, fully equipped for a self catering holiday, which leads through to a bright and airy breakfast room with large windows and doors leading out onto the garden. There’s also a dining room with space for ten around the table and a wood burner.
The luxurious bedrooms are spread across the first and second floors with five double rooms equipped with sumptuous super king-size beds. Two of these rooms can be set up as twins if required and there’s another twin room which is suitable for two children. The master bedroom is located on the first floor and has a beautiful four poster super king-size bed, an ensuite shower room and views across the Helford River.
Outside, you’ll find the gardens have been designed just as carefully as the interior with manicured lawns and pretty flowers lining the sweeping driveway. There’s a large heated swimming pool with loungers and a terrace with a barbecue and dining area. You’ll find another dining terrace just off the kitchen, the perfect spot for breakfast on sunny mornings or a sundowner in the evenings.
The house is perfectly located for a relaxing Cornish holiday with the water a short stroll away and plenty to do in the local area. Follow the footpath directly across from the house to Helford Passage and you’ll find a whole range of watersports on offer, from paddleboarding to sailing. Enjoy a pub lunch at the Ferry Boat Inn with wonderful views across the river, or nip across the river on the ferry to The Shipwrights Arms. Keen golfers will be able to walk to Budock Vean golf course from the house and the beautiful Trebah and Glendurgan gardens are also within walking distance. Further afield, the bustling harbour town of Falmouth with its emerging foodie scene is only 15 minutes away by car.

An incredible house that became our home for a week of family gathered from around the country. The hosts have thought of everything and then things you didn't know you needed! The pool, garden and house are absolutely beautiful, the location is perfect, literally a short walk from the beach and a short walk down (longer back!) to The Ferry Boat. The house recommendations were brilliant and true - Slice really does serve the most enormous portions! Thank you Jamie for a wonderful week.

This beautiful property in a quiet idyllic location is nestled minutes away from the Helford River. In close proximity to many coves and beaches it’s a 20 minute drive to Falmouth. This lovely property, with a large well kept garden and pool, offers a quiet restful retreat. The house is immaculately maintained with a tasteful decor, quality linens and a well equipped kitchen. Regular housekeeping ensures our stay felt like a cross between a boutique hotel and a home from home. We had a lovely holiday with our adult children, 4 young grandchildren as well as our 2 golden retrievers. We all loved it! We would definitely book again.
