To state that this property commands one of the most outstanding views in the British Isles would not be an exaggeration. A former granite count house over one hundred and fifty years old, Wheal Call stands alone above Porthledden Bay with spectacular and unrestricted views of the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Cornwall and the surrounding cliffs. An absolute must for those guests who are seeking peace and tranquility combined with the opportunity to enjoy an ever changing canvass of breathtaking sunsets, marine life including seals, porpoises and basking sharks and a wide range of flora and fauna.

To the North of the property, the coastal path leads down past old mine workings to the Kenidjack Valley and Porthledden Bay where a crystal clear rock pool appears at low tide. To the South lies Cape Cornwall only one of two capes in the UK - and Priest's Cove which is still used by local fisherman. The cottage is approached via an unmade track of approx 350 yards which is not suitable for vehicles with low suspension and rather uneven steep steps leading down to the property.

The accommodation has been completely renovated to a simple, uncluttered and rustic style with many characteristic features including beamed ceilings, wooden floors, exposed granite walls, and two wood burning stoves. In addition, night storage heating throughout helps to protect against the forces of nature! Due to its cliff top position, Wheal Call is not suitable for young children or the elderly, but will appeal to those who appreciate the exposed position and the sometimes extreme weather conditions that pervade this westerly peninsula and who also wish to escape from the pressures and intrusions of the modern world - but beware, you will need to book early!

Please note that, due to its location, the property is not suitable for young children - also there is no TV or mobile phone reception.

PLEASE NOTE THIS PROPERTY BOOKS FRIDAY TO FRIDAY
