Coulsons Retreat

If you are looking for a holiday retreat a short stroll from the delights of Penzance, yet just a car journey away from St Ives, Mousehole and all that far west Cornwall has to offer, then look no further. Coulsons Retreat is on the ground floor in a gated mews of pretty Georgian town houses with beaches, shops and a great selection of eateries close by. This is a great choice if you are looking for a car-free getaway.

Stepping through the communal front door and into the flat, the hallway leads to the sitting-room where you can relax on the comfy sofas in front of the 50" TV. A wood-burner effect electric stove will keep you warm during cooler months. The kitchen/diner is a light and bright room with everything you will need for cooking a holiday meal. The two bedrooms are comfortably furnished, the double with a five-foot king-size bed and the twin room with two three-foot singles, perfect for either children or adults. Both rooms have the benefit of TVs that connect to BBC iPlayer. The modern shower-room is ideal for washing salty toes after a day on the beach.

Outside a secluded courtyard is a lovely place for al fresco dining or perhaps a quiet read. Tranquil Morrab Gardens is next door with a Victorian bandstand and tropical vegetation which overhangs the courtyard. Coulsons Retreat is a delightful holiday bolthole and a lovely place for a getaway at any time of year and short breaks may be available at other times of the year by calling/checking with the Booking Office.
