Tucked away next to the Coast Path leading down to Rinsey Cove and mine, is The Studio, a detached cottage with fantastic far-reaching views over Mounts Bay and west Cornwall. Previously used as an art studio by a renowned artist, it has been beautifully restored and renovated. Enter through large private gates, cross a sweeping courtyard and head into the big kitchen/dining room with tiled floor and French windows overlooking the terrace and garden. Three steps lead down to the stylish sitting room which has a wooden floor and large granite inglenook with a wood burning stove. Also on this level is a pretty twin bedroom (zip-linkable to 6′ double) and shower-room. Open tread pine stairs take you to the first floor and a double bedroom with en suite shower-room and views out to sea and across the countryside. Outside, the garden is private, peaceful and relaxing with a stone terrace with table and chairs, lawn, shrubs and trees. Just a few yards from the Coast Path, The Studio has fantastic walking from the front door. The hamlet of Rinsey comprises mostly granite cottages, a cliff-top engine house standing sentinel to its tin mining history and is a short walk from its own little cove, which is owned by the National Trust. Nearby Praa Sands is one of Cornwall’s finest sandy beaches and the village of Porthleven is a real foodie destination, with interesting shops, cafes and restaurants sitting around its pretty harbour.
