The Experience

This snug space perched above the sea overlooking St Michael’s Mount will delight you whatever the weather. Bag the sofa and watch the waves crash and the skies go dark in winter; eat breakfast or sip sundowners on the balcony in summer. Although the house is an extension to an adjoining property, it feels nicely private with its own access and long views out to sea.

The sociable kitchen is a joy to work in and you can pick up a haul of fresh fish from Quayside Fish in nearby Porthleven or Newlyn. There are plenty of places to eat out – for pub grub try The Fire Engine or The Godolphin – both are within walking distance.

Blustery walks start on the coastal path to Perranuthnoe beach or Praa Sands. Mooch around the art galleries, boutique shops and cosy pubs in town. The Minack Theatre and St Ives are 30 minutes by car in opposite directions.

Reviews

As I walked in I was blown away by the light streaming in through the giant sliding doors, when the owner opened them to their full extent (they slide back into the wall) it felt like I was part of the incredible panorama in front of me. The building is handcrafted by the owners and the attention to detail and craftsmanship is evident everywhere. I could spend hours sitting on the sofa watching the scene in front of me whatever the weather, I almost think this space would be most impressive in a storm.

This was the perfect base from which to explore all the best places in beautiful West Cornwall - we walked for miles, visited hidden beaches, tiny villages, ancient village sites, National Trust properties and gardens and places with views. And every day we returned to sit on the balcony with the amazing view of the bay and St Michael's Mount, which we finally visited. Every was provided, even things we didn't realise that we needed. A perfect week.

What can you say about somewhere that has the best widescreen television in the world? The ever changing views of St Michael's Mount are absorbing and awesome and they are right on your windowsill - or balcony! Combined with the fact this is a beautifully presented one bedroom home from home - you really couldn't ask for more. While I am of the view that there are so many places in the world to visit - returning to one might not always be the best idea - this is one place I could happily return to every year.


Simone

We stayed here for a birthday treat and could not have been more pleased with Bosworgy Bay. The location is spectacular with uninterrupted views to St Michael's Mount. The property is uncluttered but has all the creature comforts you could need for a short break. We are planning our next visit.


Donna

We were blown away by the view which was amazing. The property has everything you need and the bottle of fizz was a welcome arrival gift. The bed was very comfy and the underfloor heating made the property warm and cosy. The propety was very clean. We would love to return as we don’t think we could tire of the view and we didn’t get the time to enjoy the local eateries which are within easy walking distance thanks to the great location.


Location

The neighbourhood

Marazion throngs with tourists in the summer but it’s pretty magical year round. Its beach is safe and sandy, St Michaels Mount is worth a visit (you can walk over at low tide) and there are heaps of independent shops to browse. Marazion Marsh Nature Reserve on the outskirts of town is home to a variety of wetland birds – bitterns and warblers, among others, migrate here every year.

Local points of interest from Alessandra Ausenda

  • Follow the seafront and take a peek or a dip in Jubilee Pool with its geothermal pool in Penzance. Check out Newlyn’s fish market or see what’s showing at the Film House then head to Mousehole and walk along the picturesque coast path to Lamorna
  • Stroll down to Marazion and visit the numerous galleries, pubs, cafes and shops. Reach St Michael's Mount on foot along the causeway or by ferry. Walk to the marshes and hike 12.5 miles across the Penwith peninsula along stunning St Michael's Way.
  • Admire Mounts Bay from a different angle, get inspired and savour delicious homemade food served at Tremenheere Kitchen and visit the gallery, don’t forget to check for any interesting events and art installations at Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens
  • For a mystic moment, tie a ribbon at Madron wishing well and head to see the ancient monument of Lanyon Quoit with Ding Dong mine on the moorland, walk to Men-an-Tol for a Bronze age experience and follow the road to meet Morvah along the heritage coast.
  • Discover the coast path from St Ives to Penzance. Enjoy the Cornish Mining heritage, visit St Just & Geevor tin mine in Pendeen with its fabulous museum in the most atmospheric rugged landscape. This is where our great-grandfather was managing director!
  • The golden sands of Gwithian beckon you towards Godrevey lighthouse. Walk along the wild cliffs and spy on the seals in their natural habitat. Miles of cliffs and stunning beaches, follow the Atlantic coastline and get a thrill looking down on Hell's Mouth

Introducing

Alessandra Ausenda

The owners live about a mile away, are there to meet you and will be on hand if you need anything. They are both artists and partner Sean did all the work from design and building to carpentry, electrics and plumbing. The clever design means the high ceilings and huge windows let in the light while the open-plan arrangement makes it feel spacious. Ask about guided art tours – they may offer them in the future.
