The crown jewel of the Whalesborough estate. A Grade II listed, 14th-century farmhouse lovingly renovated to blend its extraordinary heritage — exposed beams, original flagstone floors, and an inglenook fireplace — with quietly contemporary interiors and exceptional facilities you won't find in any other cottage on the North Cornwall coast.
The Property
Few places in England combine genuine medieval architecture with the kind of unapologetic luxury that makes a holiday feel like an occasion. The Farmhouse manages both. The flagstone floors downstairs are original. The inglenook fireplace has warmed people through Cornish winters for seven centuries. The snooker table is full-size.
The boot room — rare even in luxury cottages — signals that this is a working estate as much as a holiday destination. Outside, the hot tub sits in a private enclosed garden with hillside views across the Whalesborough estate. On clear evenings, the horizon stretches toward the Atlantic.
Inside, the family entertainment room with cinema snug and the open-plan conservatory-kitchen-dining space give a large group of eight every reason to never need to leave — while access to our pools, spa, gym, and The Weir Restaurant means everything else is a short walk away.
Bedrooms
All bedrooms are fitted with Smart TVs. Bathrooms include 2 ensuites + 1 shared family bathroom.
The Highlights
Inglenook Fireplace
Original 14th-century stonework. There is nothing quite like the sound of a Cornish January fire in a room that has contained seven centuries of them.
Entertainment Room
Full-size snooker table, fully-stocked bar area, and cinema snug with beanbags and a large screen. The social heart of the house.
Private Hot Tub
Set in the enclosed garden with views across the estate hillside. A prerequisite, not a luxury, when you can see stars from the water on clear nights.
The Conservatory Kitchen
Open-plan kitchen with Bosch integrated appliances, American fridge-freezer, and a dining table that seats all eight. The conservatory floods the space with morning light.
