More about Castle Croft

Only a five minute walk down the hill to the golden sandy beach at Praa Sands, this charming single-storey detached granite barn, converted from the old stables is set in the grounds of the former mediaeval great hall of Pengersick Castle nearby, now a private dwelling with the gardens and keep open to the public in the summer. Entered through a gated driveway shared with the owner, the gravel drive leads up to a parking area to one side of the property.

The front door opens into a small hallway and from there into a pleasant living room retaining many of the original Dovecots as features with stained wooden floorboards, beams rising up to the apex of the roof and limewashed natural stone walls. There is a smart fitted kitchen area in one corner with a slate tiled floor and cherry pine units, a rustic dining suite and a comfortable leather corner settee facing the wood burning stove.

Leading off the hallway are a bathroom W.C. with hand basin and electric shower over the bath and two carpeted bedrooms with open ceilings and pine bedroom furniture. The master bedroom has a double bed with white painted stone walls and wooden hinged shutters on the window, and the second bedroom has a triple sleeper which comprises a double bed below and single bunk bed on top with integral access ladder and sprung mattresses.
