Idyllic Setting On Valley Side 500yds To The Beach

Self Catering Lodge on the North Cornwall Coast

One of 5 lodges at Wheal Friendly Gardens, Rocky Lane, St Agnes

Serene, ultra contemporary yet comfortable, the house offers the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the beach below. The accommodation spans one level with a lovely open plan living space for relaxing, cooking and catching up on the day's events. With French windows opening from the sitting area and the master bedroom, the interior flows easily onto the large enclosed deck. Dine in style or lounge about on the comfy garden furniture.

Adventure or relaxation on your doorstep. Drift onto the beach, a short walk away, to surf, kayak, swim or paddle under the watchful eye of the coastguard(during the summer season). Or simply relax on the beach or in the beachside Bistro with a coffee or something stronger. Delicious food an extra option.

Walk onto the cliffs to join the coastal walks. An all year round holiday where you can experience nature at its best throughout the seasons the brilliant purple heather and yellow gorse along the cliffs, sight of a seal, huge storm waves as exciting as the beauty of the flat turquoise sea in the summer sun.

Popping to the shops is a 10 minute walk as long as you you don't get delayed by the cafes and galleries on the way or simply to stop and look at the view.

Superb pubs and restaurants on the doorstep offering great local food including a fish restaurant in the Trevaunance Cove itself. A special place that is loved by the locals and visitors alike.

One allocated parking space additional cars should park at the nearby Reppers Comboe car park (Charges apply £3.50 per day £9.25 per week but free from November 1st to March 31st Prices as of July 2025)

Stylish holiday lodge short walk from beach

The lodge is one of 5 set in a quiet spot surrounded by trees and just a short walk from St Agnes beach. The property was spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable to relax in. The kitchen is very well equipped for whatever cooking you may want to attempt. Outside there is a large decked area with seating and recliners plus a gas BBQ. All in all I would highly recommend.

Lovely property, stone’s throw from beach

Superb accommodation - bright, modern, clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need. 5 mins walk from Trevaunance Cove (surfing, swimming, kayaking) and 10 mins walk from quaint St Agnes. Well placed for St Ives, Penzance etc. Had an amazing time. Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful stay

A brilliant place to stay in St Agnes and everything you could need in a holiday home is provided for a care free stay. Private and secluded location close to beach and a short walk to town for all the pubs, restaurants and cafes. Amazing walks along the coast cliff path either side of the cove. We have stayed in several places above the cove, and this is a real gem and it will be the place we will always try and stay in future visits. Thank you!

Spotlessly clean and modern lodge.

We had a very pleasant stay in this clean and spacious property. The host/owner in particular is very responsive to questions. Finding the property for the 1st time can be a bit tricky but instructions are excellent. The property was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities we needed. We look forward to staying there again in the future.

Perfect stay at the lodge

The lodge was as beautiful as in the advertisement. It was the best stocked home we ever rented. Everything you wish for was available! The bay below is quite nice. Driving up the entrance was a bit frightening at fisrst but you get used to it and enough room to turn around your car. We were able to use our chromecast and watch Dutch programs. We really loved the house!

A total gem of a holiday home

We absolutely loved staying here, the property was clean, homely and really well stocked with bits and bobs you might need, real thought has gone in to this home. We stayed with our 8 year old son and 2 year old daughter who felt at home right away and loved playing hide and seek. The decking was fantastic for them to play on and us to sit out for lunch on sunny days. The location is amazing being a couple of minutes walk to the beach and our favourite pub, The Driftwood Spars. We can’t wait to come back, thank you for such a special week making unforgettable family memories.

Beautiful place and perfect location

We had such a wonderful stay here. The property is very well equipped, spacious and comfortable. It is perfectly located with shortcut footpaths to the beach, Trevaunance cove 5 mins downhill but nicely staggered by the footpath at the end of the drive. Coffee and pasties at the cafe and beer and chips from the driftwood. Charming little clothes shop my girls loved. We discovered another footpath up to the villiage and that was interesting and again thankfully staggers the uphill walk. Morning visits to the bakery. Back down through a tippy staple to the beach and many lovely cliff walks. We were extremely happy with our break and the sun shone. We love st Agnes and we loved and we loved the sea whisper. We would love to stay again. Doggies happy and loved the walks.

High quality accommodation in secluded location

Everything about the Sea Whisper property in Wheal Friendly Gardens was top notch. I’d never used VRBO and was impressed with the ease of booking and the information provided in relation to our stay, mainly through the App. The property was exactly as described. It’s well appointed and there was nothing we felt the property lacked in order to have an easy self catering holiday. The kitchen, bedrooms, lounge area and bathrooms are all very modern, nicely furnished and very clean. Sea Whisper is close to Trevaunance Cove (St Agnes beach), Driftwood Spars for meals and a beachside cafe for cream teas, snacks and tea/coffee. An uphill but not difficult walk I to the village offers additional options including the welcoming St Agnes hotel where we had several nice breakfasts. All in all a very enjoyable stay and highly recommended.

Great stay

The accommodation was great for our family of 5 adults. Set in a beautiful location with a lovely cove, coastal walks nearby, we had a great week enjoying the countryside and the peace and quiet of the cottage. While the local roads were narrow, access was fine. Cycling was a challenge due to the steep hills, but there is a lot of amazing views to be found. We enjoyed a dinner in the nearby pub and recommend the local bakery for lovely bread, cakes and pastries.
