St Merryn 3.7 miles.

Attention Nature-Loving Families.

Set in the quiet hamlet of Engollan near St Merryn, The Granary is a 'four-tick' welcoming countryside retreat perfectly placed for families who love nature, beaches and time outdoors together.

Surrounded by open landscape and close to Cornwall’s famous Seven Bays, it offers space to play, explore and unwind at a gentler pace.

This characterful reverse-level barn conversion has been thoughtfully arranged for family stays.

Upstairs, the bright sitting room with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams is a cosy yet spacious place to relax.

Comfortable contemporary seating surrounds the wood-burning stove, making it ideal for family evenings after beach days, while large windows offer views across the countryside towards the sea.

The open-plan kitchen and dining area is designed for shared meals and easy family living.

Whether it’s breakfast before a day at the beach or supper made with local ingredients, the space is practical, well-equipped and inviting.

On the ground floor are three bedrooms: a double bedroom with en-suite shower room, a second double bedroom, and a single bedroom, along with a family bathroom.

This layout works well for families, offering both comfort and flexibility.

Outside, the enclosed lawned garden provides a safe, child-friendly space to play, while adults can relax nearby and prepare the barbecue.

Long summer evenings are perfect for eating outdoors and enjoying the peace of the rural setting and watching out for shooting stars.

Family adventures begin close to home.

The nearby Seven Bays each offer something different, from sandy beaches ideal for paddling and rock pooling to quieter coves for picnics and exploration.

Coastal paths are easily reached for gentle walks with stunning views, and Bedruthan Steps offers a memorable day out with its dramatic scenery.

Local stores at St. Eval and Porthcothan offer essential provisions.

Trevisker Farm conveniently offers locally grown produce.

A traditional pub, restaurants and selection of cafes at Mawgan Porth are just a short drive away.

With beaches, walking routes, wildlife and open space all close at hand, The Granary is a comfortable and characterful base for families who want to enjoy Cornwall’s natural beauty together, whatever the season.
