About the host
Hosted by Gail S
Mum of 2 and secondary school teacher. I grew up in Cornwall and am thrilled to have my own little slice of paradise.
Why they chose this property
I grew up in Cornwall, enjoying summers on the beach and wanted to give my children a taste of my special memories. This property is just 2 mins from a great and safe beach meaning we can easily go for the day or just pop across for an hour. I love the harbour views and the wood burning stove which makes it a great homely base all year round.
