The Experience

An island of calm, this grand old rambling vicarage sits in rare bird-filled acres, just a short drive from St Ives. Come for peace and quiet and a classic Cornish welcome from owners Charles and Diana who are devoted to encouraging the arts and crafts.

Find English shabby chic with loads of character and no stuffiness – fresh flowers on the breakfast table, a piano in the corner, rugs on polished floors, masses of books. Your bedroom is in a separate wing with its own sitting room and a fine view of the church from the bath.

In summer you can eat breakfast in the Italianate courtyard, play a game of tennis on the ancient courts and wander the large, lawned gardens. For supper you can walk half an hour to the pub.

Reviews

Ruth

We had a wonderful week in Cornwall and enjoyed it very much beeing with Diana & Charles at the House at Gwinear. Very nice hosts, pleasant accomodation with plenty of space, wonderful garden, a quiet and ideal base to discover the beauty of Cornwall. We felt very much at home!

Location

The neighbourhood

Wonderfully peaceful location by the ancient local church, yet busy St Ives and Penzance can both be reached in under twenty minutes. Godrevy lighthouse is just three miles away, made famous by Virginia Woolf and the beach’s protected seals and pups. At the estuary, the special birdwatching area is a prime spot to see rare species, while a 40 minute drive will take you to the unique open air theatre at Porthcurnow. Take a picnic.
