About this property

Historical Churchtown House with views of the Sea

Stunning Grade II Listed 17th Century Rectory with spectacular sea views. Churchtown House is a true jewel on the southern Cornwall coast. An immaculately designed home surrounded by a walled garden with great furnishings and original features. The whole house holds up to 15 people and allows plenty of space to relax and entertain. This is a family home that is as welcoming as much as it is calming. The beach is a stones throw from the house and you will never want to leave!

The house is connected through a common door positioned in the centre of the ground floor hallway, but is uniquely positioned to house two different families on holiday together.

The main house has a ground floor hosts a large kitchen, beautiful dining room and drawing room, shower room and laundry. A storybook staircase leads you to the first floor with the four bedrooms and two bathrooms. This home and view are one you will not forget. The Master bedroom is one of the reasons that the house is listed. It has an unforgettable vaulted ceiling and exposed priests hole.

The garden is fabulous and a few steps up the stone stairs leads to a stone patio that overlooks the village, the beach and the sea.

The Annex ground floor has two bedrooms, a shower room and laundry room. The back stairs lead you to a rear exit to the walled garden or to the first floor Kitchen and Lounge. The main staircase leads you to the first floor with the Kitchen and Lounge to your right and the bathroom, second lounge and large bedroom to your left. The second lounge also has a door that leads to the walled garden and an amazing stone patio that has the perfect view of the sea.

This is a house with incredible history. The walk to the beach is a mere 5 minutes and the pub only a 1 minute walk away! Churchtown House has a magnificent energy and will feel like a home away from home.

Two open fires give a very cosy feel to the winters and the gardens allow for relaxing and great play areas for kids in the spring and summer.

Nice stay
Great place. Communication wasn’t the easiest and was quite punchy at times with multiple instructions, which considering the cost, was somewhat disappointing. Regardless; lovely place to stay and would visit again (this was our 2nd time). Thanks!

Fabulous family stay
Our stay here was perfect. We were 10 adults, and 5 children, 4 and under and we had so much room. The outside lawns were as lovely and unexpected as the inside. The village is small but had everything you could want, including spectacular view. It was a family holiday to remember, thank you so much

Amazing place to stay.
Wonderful house with everything immaculate and high quality. Gorgeous garden with views which was the perfect setting for family photographs. The location couldn’t have been better with the beach, great gastropub, cafes and gallery all within a short waking distance.

Fabulous stay
We had a fantastic few days at this gorgeous property in the lovely village of Perranuthnoe. The house is ideally located, very comfortable and well equipped. The garden overlooks the bay and is beautifully kept. Would love to return.

Special place for a family celebration
The house and gardens were beautiful and perfect for a large family week away (we hired the house and annex together). A short walk to the beach meant and longer walks along the coastal path meant it suited all of our party. The views from the house and gardens also meant that it was a lovely place to relax in even if you didn’t want to leave the house. We would love to return one day.

Amazing home, garden and location
We booked Churchtown House in 2019 for our first family holiday in many years - our family being in the north and south west of England and the USA. We weren't able to meet up in August 2020 as planned because of the pandemic, but Kathleen allowed us to defer our booking until August 2021. We cannot speak highly enough of Kathleen's understanding and her beautiful home. It was absolutely perfect for our family, with room for everyone to have their own space and to be together when they wanted to be. The garden is stunning and we enjoyed having room to play and making use of the patios with breathtaking views.

Amazing week at Churchtown House
Fabulous house and garden with views of the sea. The decor and facilities in the house are outstanding, none of us were ready to leave after our weeks stay. We were lucky to have blue skies every day so spent a lot of time in the garden and at the nearby beach.
