Beacon House

Beacon House is a 3-bedroom house on Fordh Tobmen in St Agnes, sleeping 6, with an enclosed garden and all three bedrooms upstairs. Air-source heating with underfloor warmth throughout and a wood burning stove in the sitting room keep it comfortable year-round.

The ground floor has a utility room and WC. Upstairs, the king-size bedroom has an en-suite shower, and there is a double and a twin room sharing a bathroom with bath and shower over. The kitchen-dining room comes with double electric oven, separate drinks fridge, dishwasher, and a Smart speaker. Smart TVs feature in 2 of the 3 bedrooms, and all rooms have hairdryers and tower fans.

Off-road parking fits 4 cars. The lawn garden has furniture during spring and summer months. Trevaunance Cove is 0.9 miles away - roughly a 20-minute walk downhill to a lifeguarded surf beach with good rock pooling at low tide. Trevellas Cove, a rugged shingle cove suited to snorkelling and shore fishing, is 1.2 miles distant.

St Agnes sits on Cornwall's north coast between high headlands, with a cluster of independent shops, cafes, and galleries strung along its narrow valley. The Taphouse pub hosts regular live music. Walking the coast path south leads to Chapel Porth and the Wheal Coates engine house - one of the most photographed structures in Cornwall.

Nearby: Trevaunance Cove (0.9 miles) and Trevellas Cove (1.2 miles). See our St Agnes guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

Best for larger family groups needing space for six and parking for four cars, with Trevaunance Cove under a mile away; less suited to guests wanting ground-floor bedrooms, since all three bedrooms are upstairs.
