Trevidren Cottage, Penzance is a contemporary two-bedroom retreat arranged over reverse levels, with the open-plan kitchen and diner occupying the first floor and filled with natural light. The kitchen comes well-equipped with an electric oven, fridge, fridge / freezer, dishwasher, and washer / dryer, while the dining area features a stylish urban-style table and chairs for relaxed mealtimes. Three wooden steps lead up to the mezzanine living room, where a large reclining sofa and armchairs invite you to settle in beneath the A-frame ceiling and Velux windows, framing glorious coastal views out across the harbour towards St Michael's Mount.
Step outside to discover a cute, pebble-walled courtyard garden with a private patio, perfect for al fresco dining away from prying eyes, plus a further seating area with a foliage border enjoying far-reaching views over Penzance harbour. Two king-size bedrooms occupy the ground floor, each beautifully furnished and finished to a high specification, with two bathrooms offering thermostatic showers nearby. Private parking for two cars completes this thoughtfully designed coastal hideaway.
Imagine mornings spent gazing out across Mount's Bay through the living room's Velux windows, telescope in hand to pick out the detail of St Michael's Mount on the horizon. Afternoons might drift by in the courtyard garden, sheltered and sunny, before an evening stroll down into Penzance for fresh seafood and harbourside pints. Back at the cottage, settle into the reclining sofa as the sky over the bay turns soft shades of amber and rose.
