At the head of the Helford River, in the pretty village of Gweek in Cornwall is fabulous Gweek House; a four-bedroom Victorian house, ideal for a family of eight or a group of friends. Enveloped by 1.5 acres of private rural gardens and lush woodland, peaceful seclusion and dark skies can both be found in abundance. Gweek House is the perfect base from which to explore both the stunning coast and countryside of Cornwall. In the contemporary kitchen you’ll find everything you need to prepare hearty meals which can be enjoyed at the formal dining table where the woodburning stove paints a cosy backdrop. The sitting room is a joyous place in which to relax. Large bay windows fill the room with light, whilst a second woodburning stove ensures the room is warm and inviting at any time of year. For a quiet moment away from the group, you’ll find the sunroom with its triple aspect is the perfect spot for relaxing after a busy day of adventure. When sleep calls, retire to one of four bedrooms, all completed with elegant furnishings and plush beds. A king-size with en-suite, a further king-size, a double and a twin room offer ultimate flexibility, all within proximity to the pristine bathroom. Wake to the sound of birdsong, and head outside to enjoy morning coffee looking over the luscious lawn and lofty trees. There are plenty of seating areas to choose from; here you can dine alfresco and spend time as a family throughout your stay. Head into the village of Gweek for all the essentials, where you’ll find a convenience store, a welcoming pub, and a little café within the boatyard. The Cornish Seal Sanctuary is within walking distance and well worth a visit. Also nearby are the Museum of Cornish Life, and of course the glorious Helford River with its waterborne pursuits. Further afield, enjoy tours of the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, discover Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII in 1540, or relax upon on of the many Blue Flag beaches for which Cornwall is renowned. Reaching Lizard, the most southerly point of the British mainland, visit Housel Bay Beach, enjoy the elevated vantage point of Pistil Meadow, head towards Lizard Lighthouse, or explore The Lizard Heritage Coast by foot, taking in your coastal abode. With much to see nearby, you’re assured of a memorable holiday at Gweek House.
