Having returned to Cornwall with our children for regular holidays we discovered Kenegie Manor .The tranquility of the site really appealed to us and the tennis courts and swimming pool were a real bonus.

Having decided to invest in our own property we purchased 'The Old Piggery Barn', in May 2013. The barn is situated behind Kenegie Manor set amongst similar granite barns. We particularly like the fact that we are a detached building, and having previously been a 'Piggery', it has heaps of character.

We have completely renovated the entire barn fitting new electrics, double glazed windows, state of the art infra red heating panels air filtration unit and a wood burning stove. We are continually updating the property to make it a real 'home from home' and have a gorgeous fully fitted kitchen with quality appliances, new flooring, bathroom and memory foam mattresses.

'The Old Piggery Barn', is a unique and ideal base from which to explore the stunning countryside and coastline. Peacefully situated in Gulval overlooking Mounts Bay you have only a mile to travel into Penzance to be surrounded by all types of shops, and various amenities. The local beach, Marazion is a lovely family beach with plentiful parking and family friendly pubs serving food; with stunning views across to St. Michael's Mount. St.Ives is six miles along the country road to your left outside the driveway, this is a fabulous place to visit and it's very easy to spend an entire day here.. Tate St Ives is located just in front of the stunning surf beach, Porthmeor.
Here you'll find the fabulous Porthmeor restaurant on the beach with a surf school and hire if you're feeling the need to experience the waves.
. Gwithian is also just a short drive up the A30 for excellent surf and a chance to spot the local seals in their habitat a short walk to the right from the national trust car park.
If you're visiting at Christmas, the lights at Mousehole nearby are stunning.

The Old Piggeries is a very loved barn full of charm and character. We have created a lovely base in which to unwind and discover all the delights of this gorgeous part of Cornwall. Tremenhere cafe and sculpture park is in Gulval our village and has fabulous reviews. Jubilee pool, the art deco wonder is situated in Penzance and now has a geothermal spa available to book. There's amazing restaurants for foodie fans including Mermaid Alley, New St Penzance. Pre book as it's very special.
The White Hart in Ludgven is consistently fabulous for dinner with the family as is 'The Haseltown Inn, en route to St. Ives.
It's an incredible part of the world.
