Margot at Rosehill Lodges, Porthtowan is a newly refurbished luxury lodge tucked into a peaceful wooded valley, just 450 metres from Porthtowan's beautiful Blue Flag beach. The thoughtfully appointed kitchen comes fully equipped with electric oven and hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washer / dryer, and microwave, flowing seamlessly into the open-plan living space where a cosy wood burner creates the perfect focal point. Gather around the dining table for leisurely meals and evening games, then sink into comfortable seating to enjoy the Smart TV with those stunning woodland views framed through the lounge windows.
Outside, the glass-covered enclosed terrace provides year-round enjoyment of the bubbling hot tub and al fresco dining area, while the private sauna overlooks the lush woodland, offering wonderful wildlife watching opportunities. The thoughtfully landscaped garden ensures complete privacy with mature trees and shrubs, and there's a heated outdoor drench shower plus charcoal barbecue for summer evenings. Two beautifully presented bedrooms provide peaceful retreats: the luxurious super king-size room features an en-suite shower room and its own TV, while the flexible twin room (which converts to super king-size on request) is complemented by a family bathroom with shower over bath. Driveway parking accommodates two cars, with an EV charging point and outdoor storage cupboard for all your beach equipment.
Picture mornings wrapped in fluffy robes, stepping from your private sauna into the invigorating drench shower before settling into the hot tub with coffee as birdsong fills the wooded valley. Spend sun-soaked days on Porthtowan's golden sands, just moments away, then return to fire up the barbecue while the wood burner crackles inside. As twilight settles over the hills, sink into the hot tub's warm embrace, watching stars emerge through the glass canopy above.
