Skylarks!

Skylarks! Is a three-bedroom cottage on Perranview Holiday Park at Higher Trevellas near St Agnes, sleeping 6 with 1 bathroom. The property is on a managed park, which provides a swimming pool for guests - a useful facility given the sometimes unreliable Atlantic weather on this stretch of the north Cornish coast. Wi-Fi and parking are included.

Trevellas Cove is 0.9 miles from the park - a small, rocky cove at the base of cliffs that were part of the Wheal Kitty mine workings. The cove is not suitable for swimming but is a striking coastal access point for walkers. Trevaunance Cove, 1.1 miles away, is the more accessible beach: a sheltered sandy cove with a surf school and cafe, and the only beach in St Agnes to have a historical harbour. The harbour walls were repeatedly destroyed by Atlantic storms and eventually abandoned in the early twentieth century - the remains are visible at low tide.

St Agnes village is around 1.2 miles from the park. It has a local shop, bakery, several pubs, and independent galleries alongside National Trust-managed mine infrastructure at Wheal Coates. The Stippy Stappy - a series of terraced cottages on a steep lane - is the most photographed corner of the village. Perranporth Beach is 2.2 miles south: a wide surf beach with a Blue Flag rating that draws larger crowds through summer.

Chapel Porth, managed by the National Trust, is one of the most significant engine house sites on the coast. The beach below it has a short season but is a good low-tide swimming spot.

This property is good for families who want pool access and proximity to St Agnes village, with several beaches within cycling distance. On-site laundry facilities are available all year round, and two well-behaved pets are welcome. Changeover is Friday.
