'The Ope'
This incredible home for eight is like no other. From the front, a whimsical whitewashed traditional Cornish cottage. Out the back, a stylish contemporary cabin straight out of Scandinavia. Inside, a calm and modern sanctuary awaits, with an outside terrace for alfresco dinners in the sun and a cosy living space to snuggle up when it’s cool. It’s easy to spend most of your time here, but with all of St Agnes right on your doorstep and the beach a walk away, you’ll love exploring the local area.

It’s rare to find a home with such a seamless blend of traditional and modern. The front of the property mirrors that of a traditional Cornish cottage, boasting sash windows and a pretty pink front door. Step through into your cosy living space, decorated in fresh whites and calming neutrals – it’s hygge at its best. Snuggle up on the sofa when storms roll in, getting comfy in front of the wood burner. Or take to the dining table for board games that last long into the night.
Upstairs, find a light and bright kitchen with everything you need to cook up a feast – make sure to grab the day’s catch from the local fishmonger’s or the butcher’s just opposite! Plus, there’s a stylish king-size bedroom with an additional sofa bed, and a separate bathroom that boasts a luxury walk-in waterfall shower. From the kitchen, you can get direct access to the garden where you’ll find the cabin.
Two additional beds are found in the Scandi-inspired cabin, finished with stunning Crittall doors and stylish interiors. In contrast to the cottage, the modern space has an open-plan feel. Sleeping four, it has a king-size bed, a bunk bed and an en-suite bathroom. Plus, there’s a kitchenette for added convenience.
The whole property is set up to enjoy indoor-outdoor living, with a beautiful garden that boasts peace and tranquillity. And best of all, you’re located in one of St Agnes’ most enviable locations. A stroll down the hill takes you to the soft shores of Trevaunance Cove, whilst the other way leads to pubs, restaurants, bakeries and shops.
Guest Access and Notes
Guests have access to the whole cottage and the separate cabin. A key safe makes arrival easy.
Please note: this is a truly unique set-up, which really leans into the quirky nature of the period properties in the area. As such, it may not be suitable for guests with limited mobility, as there are stairs to climb to access the majority of the property.
