The grounds and gardens at Headlands are excellent and the sea views are really superb. Sometimes you may see one of the Square Riggers sail by on their way in or out of Charlestown harbour. 

Heated Swimming Pool

The excellent outdoor swimming pool is available to use during mid April to the end of September. The pool is of a really good size and it has an electronically operated pool cover for safety when the pool is not in use.

At night time, there are numerous lights that can be switched on to light up this area.

Terraced Area

The terraced area is really big and is great for sunbathing, barbeques or just sitting down and watch the world go by. There are two sets of tables and chairs to use as well as a Weber gas fired barbeque.

Gardens

Within the garden there are mature hedges, trees and shrubs and a good sized lawn down by the pool. The gates by the garage and off the side of the terraced area can be locked and there is also a non locking side gate on the side of the property.

Great for kids
For the Kids

There is a lot of things that kids can do as well as everything listed. This can include; Bens Playworld, Tortoise garden, Cornwall Crealy Adventure Park, Monkey Sanctuary at Looe. We do think that most kids will want to spend hours exploring the rock pools on Porthpean beach.

Cycling on holiday
Cycling

Bring the bikes or hire them locally from Pentewan Cycle hire to explore some of the fantastic villages and cycle trails nearby. You can cycle around to Mevagissey or Charlestown and if you are feeling a bit more energetic then why not cycle up to the Eden Project.

Shooting Experiences
Shooting

If shooting is your thing then there are some really great shoots nearby although booking well ahead is imperative. In addition to rough or driven shoots, there is also some clay pigeon shooting avaliability as well. Please call us for more details.

Rick Stein Cookery School
Stein's Cookery School

Driving over to Padstow is only a 45 minute drive and you can learn new culinary skills at Rick Steins Padstow Seafood school.

The courses are really inspiring but early booking is advised. Call our concierge team for more details.

Walking the Coast Paths
Walking the coast paths

Walk down the hill from Headlands to access the coastal path. Depending on your level of energy, you can walk for miles and miles! Popular short walks include walking to Pentewan or Charlestown. Longer walks could be to Fowey, Mevagissey or down to Portloe.

Guest Reviews

Just wanted to say what a fantastic time we had staying at Headlands and wow! what an amazing house! The house and all its facilities were amazing, the view was even more amazing and it made our break - well just AMAZING!!

As you know I have been recommending Perfect Stays to all my friends, I've put a recommendation on your Facebook page and will continue telling everyone how great it was.  Big thanks to you and Tina for arranging it for us at extremely short notice but you did a fab job and were very accommodating especially with sorting out the playstation for the kids!

 We will definitely be in touch in the future as there are a couple of your other properties that I can't wait to stay in! Kind regards and thanks again

Perfect Stays provides a high quality professional service offering and managing luxury home rentals in the South West. They found us Headlands which is a larger property and then wrapped the experience by providing a 'Concierge' service that took care of all our booking needs. We would recomend Perfect Stays to anyone looking for an amazing holiday experience.
