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 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
chair. 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/diner, the drawing room and the two upstairs suites are breathtaking. With floor to ceiling sliding french windows 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 less than 2 minutes away.

To the rear of the house (along a private lane) is secure 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.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
We have two large bedrooms upstairs, both with double beds and en-suite bathrooms. One with bath and shower and one with shower. Bedroom 3 has a bunk bed and bedroom 4 a lovely day bed that converts from a single to a double in seconds. They both share a third bathroom with bath and shower. In the drawing room there's a high quality sofa bed which is very comfortable. For the smaller kids we have a travel cot and high chair. There is also plenty of storage for clothes in all rooms.

There's a utility room with washing machine and separate tumble dryer and a door to the back of the house where there's an outside tap to hose down the kids when get back from the beach.

Further details outdoors:
The garden is completely safe for kids. It's terraced and the drop between the levels is small. We have a 4 year old girl and are happy for her to be running around all day.

Further details

Change over day is SATURDAY. Arrival time is 16.00 and departure by 10.00

Duvets, pillows, bedding and towels are all provided.

Although we don't want smoking in the house, we're happy for you to smoke on the terrace.

“Immaculate house with stunning views!” 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

Guestbook for St. Michael's

"We had a super time in Cornwall and your house was absolutely beautiful and the views were breathtakingly stunning. Needless to say we were sad to leave and all agree we would love to return". Pam

"We had an absolutely amazing holiday thank you. Easily the best house we've ever stayed in". Steve & Paula

"We just wanted to drop you a line to let you know we had a fabulous time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Seaton.  We all agreed that it was one of the best holiday's we've ever had, in no small part to the lovely home and its setting overlooking the sea and coast line'. Mark & Diane

I can say that St Michael’s is "Grand Designs" & "Location Location Location" all at once. Lynn and I absolutely loved it, it it so well appointed, you and Margaret have thought of everything. We listened to the waves at night watching the "Eddystone Lighthouse" and that view !!! you just sit on the patio and watch the world with that 180 degree panorama....Wow. So many places to go, but loved our picnic above "Lantic Bay" pub lunches at "Kingsand","Crafthole" & "Polperro". Can't wait to go back, long drive but worth it we think. Richard & Lynn
