The details

Perched high above the fishing village of Mevagissey, Polpier offers a spectacular front-row seat to one of Cornwall’s most captivating coastal scenes. From this grand clifftop retreat, you can watch colourful day boats chug out of the harbour, gulls wheel above the water and the ever-changing Cornish coastline unfold before you. Sleeping up to 16 guests across elegant interiors and surrounded by two acres of glorious gardens, Polpier is a place designed for memorable gatherings, seaside freedom and luxurious relaxation.

Outside, the gardens are a highlight in their own right. Wander through flower beds scented with herbs and sea air, or take in the endless coastal views from the slate terrace. There’s plenty to keep everyone entertained, from swimming in the heated outdoor pool to rallying on the clay tennis court or enjoying a leisurely game of croquet on the lawn. As evening falls, gather beneath the enchanting lights of the gazebo bar for cocktails and conversation before firing up the wood-burning pizza oven for an alfresco feast.

Inside, Polpier is every bit as inviting. Two beautiful reception rooms offer space to relax after a day by the sea, whether you’re curling up with a book in the harbour-view drawing room or settling in for a movie night with the Bose home cinema in the family room. There’s also a games room with snooker and table tennis for friendly competition. And then there’s the showstopper – the disco room. Complete with DJ booth, mixer, turntables and synchronised lighting, it’s the perfect place to dance long into the night.

The spacious kitchen centres around a traditional Aga that keeps the heart of the home warm and welcoming. A second ante-kitchen provides extra ovens, fridges and plenty of preparation space, making catering for large groups easy. Meals can be enjoyed around the large dining table, in the breakfast room, or out on the sun terrace overlooking the sea.

Eight beautiful bedrooms accommodate up to 16 guests, most offering sea views that greet you with sparkling harbour sunrises. Several rooms feature super-king size beds and luxurious roll-top baths, while the secluded Honeymoon Suite offers its own cosy sitting space, kitchenette and glass-screened balcony.

Step outside the gates and the charm of Mevagissey awaits. Stroll the winding harbour streets, browse local galleries and shops, or enjoy fresh seafood at one of the village restaurants. Explore nearby Polstreath beach, discover hidden coves along the South Cornwall coast or simply watch the boats come and go as the tide shifts. However you spend your days, Polpier promises a Cornish escape you won’t soon forget.
