Hidden away in a secluded bay, Polhawn Fort is an ideal place for a homestay. Mesmerising views, an untouched beach, walking trails and only the sound of waves as company, Polhawn is a nature lover’s paradise.

Inside the Fort, eight spacious suites and bedrooms have been designed to maximise privacy and peacefulness. Sleep soundly in beds with Vispring mattresses and luxurious Eygptian cotton and wake up to far-reaching sea views.

Homestays are accommodated on a self-catering basis. You are welcome to bring your own food to prepare in the kitchen or arrange for local suppliers to provide private catering. Alternatively, there are many fabulous local pubs and eateries nearby – ask the team for recommendations.

While here, we invite you to do as much or as little as you like. Soak up the Cornish sun by day and star gaze by night. Go wild swimming in the ocean or enjoy a soothing soundbath by the bay. Take a leisurely hike along the South-West coastal path toward the ancient Rame Head, or meander through the Grade One gardens at Mount Edgcumbe Country Park. There’s more than enough to fill a few days here and you’ll find the very best of Cornwall within easy reach.
