Just 2 miles from lovely sandy beaches, this sophisticated 19th-century granite chapel conversion enjoys unspoilt views from its landing and galleried first floor living room, and has a secure south-facing garden with a sunny aspect. The Old Chapel is very comfortable and well-equipped and makes an ideal location for a relaxing and fun-filled holiday. Just a 15 minutes' walk down a bridle path that leads from the front door of the chapel will take guests into the car park of the Eden Project - impressive geodesic domes filled with flora from around the world. For another pleasant day out the Lost Garden of Heligan is easily accessible. Nearby, the harbour of Charlestown has a Shipwreck and Heritage Centre that charts a fascinating history of fishing, wrecks, mining and migration to North America. It has its own beach, whilst St Austell Bay offers outstanding cliff and coastal scenery with beaches at Carlyon Bay, Porthpean, Pentewan and Par. Across the water, tucked into the hillside between Par and Fowey, the small, picturesque harbour of Polkerris has a sandy beach and is an excellent place for swimming with good, clean waters.
