About this house rental
Hugging the south coast between Penzance and Helston, Praa Sands is a beautiful mile long beach in Mounts Bay, and with its calm shallows, fine sand and excellent surfing conditions, is the perfect place for spending relaxing Cornish holidays with family or friends. One of a row of exclusive beachfront properties, Kerenza Sands rests just a few metres from the shore, separated from the beach only by the village green, and has a large garden with uninterrupted views of the bay.
Recently refurbished to an exceptional standard, the property boasts three spacious bedrooms (one of which is en-suite) and a fabulous open plan living space, all tastefully styled with gorgeous furniture and contemporary colour schemes. The modern kitchen features lovely sea views and comes fitted with a range of appliances and utensils, while the bright and airy dining room with its large table and ocean panorama beyond the garden, is the ideal spot for sharing meals and conversation together. For days when you fancy a meal out, the Sand Bar which perches right on the beach, is just a few minutes’ walk away, and here you’ll be able to enjoy stone baked pizzas, gourmet burgers and a variety of light bites with some of the best beach and bay views in Cornwall. Unwind with a good book or magazine in the living room to the sound of waves breaking on the beach or laze back in the summer room to discuss the day’s plans. After your adventures out and about you'll be able to look forward to sinking into your very own private hot tub while dinner sizzles away on the BBQ.
Surrounded by coastal paths and walking routes, guests can choose from a host of ways to enjoy the fresh air and beautiful scenery, whether out on the water SUPping and surfing, or on dry land, meandering the coast and countryside by bike or on foot. Nearby, the coastal town of Marazion with its famous St Michaels Mount, is just 10 minutes-drive away, while the iconic fishing town of Porthleven with its storm-driven harbour wall and wonderful restaurants lies the same distance away in the other direction. Slightly further afield but within easy reach by car, the towns of Penzance and Newlyn are well worth a visit, as is the charming village of Mousehole and the small but beautifully formed Lamorna Cove.
*This property supplies a travel cot and high chair

Cornwall neaver disappoints and the house is definitely about its location. The beach is a short walk over the grass through the main carpark and down some steps. If you have any mobility issues then the steps to the beach are quite steep. The house is comfortable and warm. The hot tub was great to warm up in after a cold swim. The twin bed mattress are designed for children not adults as they are quite thin. The other two beds are comfortable. The kitchen equipment is not as good as some cottages we have stayed in and the house definitely needs maintenance on it. Conservatory windows were broken, issues with the floor grips, hoover is broken, rugs had stains on them. They make a big thing about damage insurance but the property is not loved . All that said we had a good week as we love the sea and Cornwall

We very much enjoyed our stay at Kerenza Sands. The accommodation was spacious and well appointed and the location was perfect, especially for our dog. We would definitely book again.

Beautiful place to stay, right on the coastal path with beach just a couple of minutes walk away. To access the beach you need to walk down some steps, or there is disabled access via a ramp if you were to walk about 5-10 mins further. The beach is stunning - super clean and perfect for children. We loved it. We had a dog with us and whilst the garden is secure, be wary if you have a dog who jumps as the garden wall isn’t very high. Our cocker spaniel didn’t attempt it, but a bigger dog might. There’s lots of wild rabbits that come into the garden, which drove our dog bananas. Thankfully she didn’t catch one!
The property is very well maintained and modern. It really does have everything you need there and I wish we could have stayed longer than we did.
The property has septic tanks, which despite all of the air fresheners in the world you are still aware of. It didn’t spoil anything for us, but just keep the house well ventilated.
I would definitely stay again.

We couldn’t fault the location it was a short walk to the beach and had a great big garden for our 2yr old. Having said that the place was absolutely filthy, we had to hoover up and the first day as our toddlers socks were picking up long white dog hairs and when we hoovered it then stunk of wet dog then for the remainder of our stay. One of his toy cars went under the sofa and when we went to get it it looked like it had not been cleaned for months. The conservatory roof was leaking and the building had many cracks, cobwebs and overall very dated. To be described as ‘luxury’ we think was an overstatement, no toiletries and only one toilet roll? You get more than that with a premium inn! One day the lights wouldn’t work and the fuse had tripped so luckily my partner knew what he was doing to get it sorted. One of the door handles was broken and a maintenance guy came to fix it during our stay (not an issue as the gentleman did explain about it), only one side of the toaster worked. Someone came to clean the hot tub before we had even vacated the property on our last day which we thought was a bit premature if we were still using the facilities we had paid for until check out. This is not the type of property we would usually book but as we were getting married during our stay in Cornwall we splashed out for ‘luxury’ or that’s what we thought and we were a little disappointed particularly with the cleanliness of this place.also the outdoor seating area and hot tub we felt would benefit from some sort of cover so you could enjoy them during all elements of weather.
