Large luxury holiday home with standout entertainment facilities

A holiday home like no other, La Casita beautifully blends Cornish history with modern luxury. In a truly unique position, La Casita sits in the grounds of Antron Lodge, an 18th century residence once home to the High Sheriff of Cornwall back in 1833. In its own tranquil setting, at La Casita you’re well placed to explore the west and south coast of Cornwall; the closest being the fabulously photogenic fishing town of Porthleven with its historic port and glorious sandy beach which you can reach in just four minutes by car, or embark on a scenic 20-minute walk via the South West Coast Path.

The newly constructed retreat, complete with uninterrupted views of rolling countryside and coastal vistas is a tranquil haven bursting with attractive features to ensure your Cornish holiday is one to remember. Entertainment is order of the day here from the spacious swim spa hot tub to the dedicated games room complete with its own private bar, pool table and retro games machines, you’ll be well looked after. Nevertheless, comfort hasn’t been overlooked, La Casita boasts modern touches throughout designed with guests’ comfort in mind, featuring underfloor heating and air conditioning throughout.

The living space has been thoughtfully considered for all your holiday needs; with a fabulous open-plan layout. There are two sumptuous sofas to kick back on, plus a contemporary electric fireplace, and fully loaded super-sized smartTV. Seamlessly connecting to the well equipped kitchen and dining space which seats eight, budding chefs will not be disappointed with high spec appliances at every turn, plus an eye-catching double height vaulted ceiling.

You’ll find four well-presented bedrooms, all boasting modern ensuites with large walk-in showers but individual in style. Guests can choose from the master bedroom with an opulent queen-size bed with patio doors opening onto the front garden, there are two generous king size bedrooms, and a spacious twin room with a zip ‘n’ link bed which can be set up as a twin or king size bed. This bedroom also features a cosy chill out mezzanine space, perfect for unwinding. Each bedroom features a wall-mounted smart TV, wireless phone charging stations and plenty of storage space.

The outside space at La Casita truly sets this property apart. Not only is there parking for up to ten cars, complete with an EV charger, there’s an impressive acre of garden at the front, along with an enclosed courtyard garden at the front featuring a swinging egg chair and outdoor shower, plus an astroturf garden at the rear, where you’ll find the bubbling swim spa accommodating up to 12 people, a large outdoor dining set and an outside speaker linked to the bar’s sound system.

La Casita is a remarkable contemporary space, perfect for group gatherings or family getaways. Despite its serene outlook, this special location is conveniently located granting easy access to explore the rest of Cornwall. Venture left out of the drive, and ten minutes away is the pristine Praa Sands with its sandy beaches, famous Cornish attractions, and great gastronomy.

Just a four minute drive or twenty minute walk, and you’ll arrive at Porthleven. Known for its wonderful food, it hosts its own food festival in spring each year and celebrity chefs Michael Caines and Jude Kereama both have restaurants here too; Kota Restaurant and Kota Kai are Jude’s Asian-inspired eateries, while Michael Caines took over from Rick Stein with his Harbourside Refuge restaurant.

The beach at Praa Sands is easy to access too, just a ten minute drive away. Great for families and has a huge expanse of golden sands that children will love building their sandcastles in. There are a few beaches to choose from along this stretch of coastline though and to the east, Marazion Beach comes with spectacular views of St Michael’s Mount across the bay.

Spending time in the water is all part of a Cornish holiday.  Whether you book a surf lesson or opt for the more unusual activity of horse swimming on the beach, this stretch of coastline is a little bit magical.  Of course, a view from the coastal path will delight walkers and cyclists might like to head slightly inland to take on the 12km Bodmin Beast Cycle Trail.

One of the most famous of Cornish landmarks is only a short drive away from Praa Sands.  St Michael’s Mount is a sacred and impressive island with its own castle.  At low tide you can walk across the beach on the causeway and discover the island for yourself.  There is still a small community of around thirty people living here and using the harbour.  Tours of the garden and castle are available and you can even stay for a bite to eat in the cafes.  Don’t worry if the tide comes in, you can always catch the ferry back to the mainland.

Eating out is all part of your holiday and Sandbar at Praa Sands serves up classic beachside lite bites and drinks.

You might also like to spend a day shopping in St Ives and visiting the harbour seals or visit the seals at the Gweek Seal Sanctuary, take in a play at The Minnack Theatre, get to know the historic Godolphin Estate or even hop on a helicopter or ferry to take a day trip to the Isles of Scilly.
