Hot Tub
Bedrooms: 6

Sea Island is a six-bedroom waterfront property in Helford, Cornwall. Surrounded by sea on three sides at high tide, it sits directly above the water's edge overlooking a tranquil harbour and creek. This is one of Cornwall's most unspoilt stretches of coastline and the setting is genuinely unlike anything else.

The area is all sheltered creeks, quiet harbours and gently lapping water. You can swim, kayak, paddleboard, canoe or simply walk the coastal paths. There's a small private beach with rock pools and a sandy spit where you can moor dinghies or kayaks. A pub and shop are both within walking distance.

Six individually styled bedrooms sleep 12 across two floors. Bedroom 1 is a ground-floor super-king with en-suite.
