Anything that can't go in the dryer can go on a clothes horse under the covered glass porch to dry. There is an iron and ironing mat in the room.

Guests will have their own double driveway leading to their own entrance at the back of the house. Once through the gate (60cm wide), the flat path to the apartment door is covered by a picturesque bridge and long glass porch which you can use to securely store surf boards, wetsuits. inflatables etc. There is also a hose just inside the gate.

We are currently restoring our beautiful Victorian garden and have just opened the dining terrace and garden terrace to our guests. There are comfy zero gravity sun loungers at the top of the garden for your use. We have basketball and Swingball and football goals if you feel energetic. You are also welcome to borrow balls and bodyboards, bucket and spades etc to take to the beach.

Alongside the house is a beautiful River Walk in Par Marshes that leads to Treesmill. Dogs and children love to play in the ancient shallow river ( that used to transport gin) which usually has a swing hanging from a tree. It is very Swallows and Amazons. See photos.

Opposite the apartment is Par Duck Pond Nature Reserve, full of swans, geese and ducks which are very friendly. Past the pond, there is a small woods and a large Bunnyfield which connects to the beach side of the village. Par is a very green village with lots of rivers and canals leading out to the sea. See photos.


A 10 minute drive takes you to Fowey or Charlestown Harbour where TV and film crews shoot regularly.

Connections to the Eden Project aren't great, so I am offering a free lift, there and back, up until 9pm for anyone without a car. There are several local taxi firms and private hire companies. Taxis cost £10-15.

We are a convenient location if you are walking the SW coastal path. Par Beach has a hire shop in summer and Polkerris around the headland has a watersports training centre and hire shop ( and a lovely pub). The North coast, with many surfer beaches, is 20 minutes away by car. The south coast, where we are in Par, is better for beaching, swimming, windsurfing and kite surfing.

There are several local pubs within a 10 min walk and Sweets Grill which is about a 5 minute walk.

There are also many take away establishments locally, including 2 kebab houses, 4 fish and chips shops , several Chinese restaurants and an Indian. Many of them deliver. There is a PL24 map with walks etc which you can download online or take from here.

Although we are on the main road and easy to find, there is hardly any traffic after 6pm . The flat is behind the property and very quiet. You can hear the owls at night.

We will be in the family house at the front of the property to show you to your apartment. If you need to speak to us, you can knock on our door or phone.

You don't have to interact with us. We are happy to put the side gate on a combination lock and let you check in alone.
