Wheal Grey, Praa Sands

Wheal Grey is a converted stone barn in Cornwall's beautiful Lizard Peninsula. Original features include exposed granite walls and traditional beams throughout. The barn sits in a peaceful rural location near Helston, surrounded by rolling countryside and farmland. You're close to both the dramatic south coast and the sheltered waters of the Helford River.

The barn sleeps up to six guests across three bedrooms. There's one king-size room, one double and one twin. The bathroom has a bath with overhead shower. Inside you'll find an open-plan living area with kitchen, dining space and sitting room. Wood-burning stove creates a cosy atmosphere on cooler evenings.

Kynance Cove's turquoise waters are 6 miles away (15 minutes). The National Seal Sanctuary at Gweek is 4 miles (10 minutes). Flambards Theme Park in Helston sits 3 miles away (8 minutes). Lizard Point, mainland Britain's most southerly spot, is 7 miles (18 minutes).

Wheal Grey works brilliantly for families wanting coastal adventures and couples after countryside peace. The combination of barn character and coastal location makes this special.
