I am an artist and Rainbow's End is my dream place where I relax with friends and family.

I am enjoying learning German and am happy to correspond in German, though there may be a few mistakes.

Why they chose this property

Praa Sands is an old fashioned seaside resort with a beautiful beach. We love the peace and lovely views. There are great coastal walks whether you go east or west from the house and beautiful places nearby like Loe Bar lake near Porthleven. Supermarkets are a 10 minute drive away in Penzance and Helston. There is a small and well stocked Coop 2 miles from the house.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful and restful location by the sea. The mile long sandy beach can be reached by walking through the garden and along a short path. There is a family friendly pub and beach cafe. The western end of the beach is busier in the summer and the eastern end is usually quiet. There are sea-views from most rooms and an expansive deck with large garden.
