Found in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in between St Ives and Penzance, The Retreat location sits in a lush riverside setting. The pitched cedar-clad building nestles gently into the bamboo that grows on the banks of the stream.
Large windows flood the house with light and ensure a connection to nature in every room. The Japandi style interiors are soft and paired back, with natural materials such as lime plaster and wood taking centre stage. This creates serene and inviting spaces that frame the surrounding greenery.
The rammed earth style curved exterior wall, concrete floor, micro cement bathrooms, soft linens and light timbers of Ash and Oak give opportunities to shoot on multiple textural backdrops.
Dense and interesting planting surrounding the country property, mainly grasses, ferns and bamboo, give a feeling of fusion between an Australian beach house and Cornish natives.
Set within three acres of land, you will also find an organic veg and flower patch, two large greenhouses, a small orchard, The Shepherds Hut and The Cabin with home made pizza oven. These unique features enhance the creative potential for clients, alongside all that the surrounding Cornish landscapes have to offer.
