About this property

Spacious, self contained flat within this Historic Castle of Caerhays, within walking distance of th

It is not often the opportunity of holidaying in such a picturesque historic castle arrives but to enjoy the views of the inner castle and grounds from your windows makes this location truly memorable.

The comfortable accommodation is accessed through its own private front door and is laid out over three floors. The front door opens into large utility entrance room with Belfast sink with stairs leading to the first floor on which you find a double bedroom and bathroom with separate shower. On the third floor there is a lovely sitting room with triple aspect windows with views to the sea and along the front of the castle, a large double bedroom with ensuite large bathroom with a separate shower area and fully equipped kitchen.

Outside the front door is an inner courtyard area, used as the Magnoila Tearooms when the gardens are open. Guests staying at the Rabbit Warren benefit from being able to walk out of their door straight into the famous spring gardens (access is only during garden open times or by private arrangement at other times) and only a short walk down the drive to the spectacular Porthluney Beach.

It provides a truly memorable holiday location.

The Caerhays Estate, nestled on the south Cornish Coast, has been owned by the Williams family since 1854 and is still very much their home. Surrounded by the world famous Spring Gardens which are renowned for their Camellia and Magnolia collections, the iconic castle with its turrets and castellations has been used as the setting for numerous films and television dramas.

The beautiful Porthluney Beach lies adjacent to the estate along with the SouthWest Coastal path with stunning walks in all directions. Surrounded by rolling green hills, a rugged coastline and picturesque sandy beaches, this is the perfect setting for your magical, timeless holiday.

Amazing property in perfect location
Who doesn’t want to stay in a castle? And a five minute walk to the beach - what more could you want. Everything about this property lived up to our expectations and was so peaceful to be staying in these beautiful gardens. We even got to witness the annual clay pigeon shoot on he estate from our windows!

The Rabbit Warren
We had a wonderful time staying in the Rabbit Warren at Caerhays Castle. It was comfortable and cosy, with everything we could have needed. The castle staff were friendly and accommodating. It was a 5 minute walk to a beautiful beach, surrounded by equally beautiful Cornish countryside. I could happily have stayed there forever and actually shed tears when it was time to leave. A wonderful place to stay in every way.
