St. Michael's
About the home
Originaly built in the 1930's, St. Michael's has been totally restored to the very highest standard. It enjoys truly spectacular 180 degree frontline sea views. To the east you see the Rame Peninsula, to the west Looe Island and out to sea the famous Eddystone lighthouse. The wildlife in the area is superb, and we've seen Dolphins swimming in front of the house.
In the fully fitted new kitchen we have a solid English oak table with two benches and two chairs. There's a wall mounted Panasonic LCD TV linked to Sky+ and a Bose ipod speaker. In the sitting room are 3 comfortable sofas and a large armchair. There's a 42 inch wall mounted Panasonic plasma screen with the full SKY+ package including HD. In all the bedrooms we have lovely white New England style beds, side tables, dressing tables and chest of draws.
The sea views from the kitchen, drawing room and the two upstairs suites are breathtaking. With floor to ceiling sliding french doors you feel like you're on a ship.
The large (13m x 7m) terrace has loungers, a dining set and a charcoal BBQ. It's totally private, well protected from the wind and is literally a 2 minute walk to the most stunning beach; the coastal path is also 2 minutes away.
To the rear of the house (along a private lane) is secure off road parking for two vehicles and there's an additional space for a third car at the front of the property. At the far end of the garden is a small quiet country lane that leads down to the beach.

The house came with many extras not normally included with holiday lets: especially notable was a good supply of fluffy white towels. The beds were all very comfortable and quality of the kitchen aplliances/gadgets exceeded our expectations: the website photos were very accurate. The views were truly stunning! If you choose St Michaels take a good pair of binoculars with you. We had a thoroughly lovely holiday which even the weather could not spoil. |

The word 'immaculate' sprung to mind as I explored our new home for a week in June. St Michaels, a 4 bedroomed holiday home perched on a hill in Seaton Cornwall, was well equipped,... more |
