    “Lovely property for a family get together.”

    Numerous walks from the house. St.Just is an easy walk away with a wide array of shops, a couple of nice pubs and even an art gallery. Riblows was very comfortable and well equipped. The enclosed garden was extensive and well tended. We loved the sauna ! The cinema room was a bonus on rainy days. We would highly recommend the Riblows as a place to stay.

The property

St Just 0.9 miles.

Resting in a breath-taking setting of Bollowal between Cape Cornwall and St Just, The Riblows is a stunning, three-bedroom farmhouse, offering elegance and luxury.

A wood fired hot tub and timber barrel sauna make for the ultimate getaway experience.

Enjoying sea views from the pet-friendly garden, whilst thoughtfully-furnished throughout with state-of-the-art appliances, plush soft furnishings, complimentary toiletries, and renowned, local artwork, The Riblows offers a magnificent dwelling for a family of six, looking to explore the delights of Cornwall.

Arrive to a gated, private driveway, providing plenty of space to park up, unload your belongings and benefit from the free electric car charging; take this time to appreciate the pretty blooms, luscious lawn and tranquil setting enveloping your new home.

Step indoors and turn left to be welcomed by the fully-equipped kitchen/diner, housing a selection of appliances to ease your stay, with original beams overhead and a lovely bench-style dining table to gather around; a utility and cloakroom reside nearby for convenience.

On cool evenings, retire to the sitting room featuring a rustling woodburning stove, sumptuous sofas to sink into, and a wide selection of books to delve into with a glass of wine in hand; film fanatics will love the chance to spend the evening in the private cinema room, offering a wonderful ambience as you watch your favourite movie.

The Riblows even has an incredible Scandinavian sauna for the ultimate relaxation experience to make your holiday all the more special.

If the weather allows, spend your time outdoors by dining upon the decked area, lighting the barbecue, enjoying a picnic upon the lawned area, or simply soaking in the wood-fired hot tub, with sea views in the backdrop.

Three well-appointed bedrooms await, starting with a ground-floor king-size bedroom, with elegant furnishings and a sleek en-suite shower room.

Travel upstairs to reach the twin bedroom (zip/link) also benefitting from an en-suite, whilst the master super-king-size features an indulgent, roll-top copper bath for late-night soaks; plush bath robes are on offer to cosy up in after your pamper.

If you can tear yourself away, your nearest hub of amenities lies in St Just, a short walk or drive away, where you'll locate a selection of bakeries, art galleries, convenience stores, cafes, and pubs, or join the South West Coast Path, ready to discover an abundance of secret coves and breath-taking bays across the Cornish coastline.

Within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a World Heritage Site, with rare breed cattle grazing the surrounding farmland, the landscape really doesn't disappoint.

Direct access to the South West Coast Path means the abundance of secret coves and breathtaking bays are only a short walk away, including Cape Cornwall, England's only Cape.

If you're a fan of music and the arts, be sure to coincide your visit to the summer months to attend the annual Lafrowda Festival, a vibrant festival held in St Just in July.

For further seaside vistas, spend the day in Penzance, a haven for foodies with winding streets dotted with independent shops and eateries, art galleries and taverns, or if you'd prefer a leisurely afternoon, Cape Cornwall Golf Club is nearby, featuring an indoor swimming pool, gym and golf course.

Carefully furnished with a taste of luxury throughout, book your own Cornish retreat at The Riblows.

Guests are welcome to explore the farm's wild flower meadows when they are in season or take a visit with the farmer to see the award winning animals.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £300.

About the location

ST JUST

Penzance 7.2 miles; St Ives 12.9 miles.

St Just is the nearest town to Land’s End and is situated approximately eight miles west of Penzance. The town itself is an ancient settlement that has a strong mining history and there are several monuments and prehistoric antiquities to visit including the Bronze Age settlement at Cape Cornwall. St Just is ideally located for visitors to explore the far west of Cornwall as it is situated on the edge of the moors and close to the beautiful north coast. In the centre of the town is Plain-an-Gwarry, a theatre used for miracle plays in medieval times, and in more recent times for the Lafrowda Festival.

Note: Sauna available from the 17th November 2023
