A true home-from-home, Bodillian overlooks the sweeping crescent beach at Praa Sands. Ideally located for surfing retreats, family holidays and special occasions, discover the West Cornwall coastline from this tranquil retreat.
With a unique upside-down design, the open plan living space occupies the whole first floor. Kick off your shoes, open the large patio doors and take up residence on the balcony, while the blue horizon provides a calming backdrop. It’s the ideal spot to savour a drink, catch the last few rays in the evening and watch the sunset. Bodillian is also centre stage for watching the powerful storms roll in, so cosy up in front of the electric fire on blustery days and dark evenings.
Four gorgeous bedrooms are located on the ground floor, three with en-suites and the other opposite a family bathroom. Accessed through the surf store, the large terrace comes with a built in barbeque and outdoor refrigerator to store those easy-to-reach drinks and nibbles for afternoons spent al fresco.
A mile of white sand backed by peaks of sand dunes makes Praa Sands a heavenly escape from everyday life. The consistent surf rolling in off the Atlantic completes Praa Sands, while the neighbouring beaches of Rinsey and Porthleven are a paradise for keen surfers.
Enjoy a lazy day on the beach before heading to The Beachcomber café for a laid back lunch. Then make the trip to the burgeoning foodie destination of Porthleven for celebratory meals and fine dining in the evening. Home to Amelies, Kota and Kota Kai, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to fresh produce. Ideally located for exploring West Cornwall’s greatest treasures, the iconic St Michael’s Mount, Minack Theatre and Land’s End are all within a 45 minute drive of Praa Sands.
