The village of Praa Sands sits on the south coast in between Helston and Marazion. Praa Sands is known for its mile-long sandy beach and excellent surfing conditions. There is a bar/restaurant overlooking the beach – the perfect spot for lunch with a view or sunset drinks. Praa Sands is also home to a Golf and Country Club, from where the most wonderful sea vista can be enjoyed whilst you play. Just inland from the beach is Pengersick Castle, the tower of which dates back to the 16th century. It is said that Pengersick is haunted, and that the ghost of a monk has been seen wandering the grounds! The house at Pengersick is rumoured to be the birth place of John Carter, the self styled King of Prussia and a tunnel which leads from the house to the beach was apparently once used by smugglers. There are supermarkets and other retail stores in Penzance (8 miles) and Helston (6 miles).

    The best cottage we have ever stayed at. Everything you could wish for and more. Six of stayed for a week from 5yrs old to 77yrs old and it was brilliant. So clean and warm, fantastic garden and hot tub!

    Everything you needed was there, very thoughtful.. Cosy cottage, great high standard facilities , spotlessly clean, ourdoor space very welcoming. You do need a car but it it close enough to St Ives, Helston etc. Some nice coves and beaches within a half hour or less. Will definately book again at earliest opportinity

    The hot tub was an added bonus and we really enjoyed that. Thanks also for your thoughtfulness in providing games and books and equipment for toddlers, much appreciated. A great location to stay with easy access to beaches along the coastline. Would definitely use again.
