About this property

Perched in the lovely village of Marazion along the coast in Cornwall, is this wonderful ground-floor apartment, Driftwood. Taking its name from its beautiful surroundings, with access to a variety of glorious beaches, the Lizard Peninsula and local attractions, Driftwood is a fabulous base for a couple seeking a romantic getaway. Ample off-road parking greets you upon arrival, before you find your charming front garden with seating, a great spot to sit and enjoy your morning coffee. Step into the contemporary open-plan living space, where you can look forward to impressing your other half with culinary delights, whipped up in the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy washing machine and tumble dryer, ready to enjoy over a celebratory bottle of fizz at the breakfast bar for two. After dinner, savour the last of the day’s rays out in the rear enclosed garden or enjoy an indulgent dip in the bubbling hot tub. As the evening cools, retire to the sitting room where you can snuggle up on the plush sofa and select a much-loved film from the Smart TV. Wash away the day in the well-appointed shower room, with underfloor heating, before wrapping yourself in a toasty towel courtesy of the heated towel rail. As your eyes grow heavy, retreat to the well-presented bedroom which offers a sumptuous double bed, plenty of storage sea views and a TV, perfect for those lazy mornings. Wander through the town where you can dine at the welcoming eateries of The Kings Arms, The Copper Spoon and the Chapel Rock Café, there is also The Tudor Chippy for when you fancy lunch on the go. The wildlife enthusiasts in your party will delight at the close proximity of the RSPB Marazion Marsh, where you can expect to see a wide variety of wetland birds. The town is well-known for its ample watersports opportunities, whether you’re hiring a paddleboard or surfing, there is something for everyone! Hop aboard a boat where you head over to the renowned St Michael’s Mount, home to a medieval castle and Norman church, there is also a restaurant and café nearby where you can enjoy a light bite before returning. Those seeking a scenic walk or cycling route can easily access the famous South West Coast Path, which offers some of the best scenery in the area. Nearby, you will find Penzance, where you can tour the attractions of Penlee House Gallery & Museum, Penzance Promenade, enjoy a dip in the Jubilee Pool or stop at the stunning National Trust – Trengwainton Garden. Further afield is Helston, where the delights of the Museum of Cornish Life and Flambards Theme Park can be enjoyed. For the very best of the Cornish coast, choose Driftwood.

    The owner has thought of everything ++. Will hopefully return.

  • Catherine

    There are 9 spaces and 15 flats. 2 spaces had cars in them that didn't move the whole time we were there, some cottages had more than one car. This is not "ample". Had we been aware of the parking situation in advance we would not have booked this cottage. It's a shame because everything else is first rate. The description needs changing to accurately reflect the position. Parking in the long-stay carpark for the week is going to cost you a further £50. If you are happy with either using the long stay or don't need to park a car then I'd thoroughly recommend it.
