Description

Ancient Lights is a pretty fisherman's cottage in Upper Meadow, a quiet pedestrianised location, which is just a short walk away from the beautiful Porthmeor Beach and the Tate Gallery. The property benefits from a studio opposite the house which, if booked with Ancient Lights, provides comfortable accommodation for six. In front of the studio is an attractive garden which can still be used if just the house is booked.

Four steps down from Upper Meadow take you in to the Kitchen/Diner with ceramic hob, electric oven, dishwasher, washer/dryer and fridge. The cosy lounge has a TV and stairs to the first floor. Upstairs are two bedrooms, one with bunk beds and the other with a 4' 6" double and lovely views over to St Nicholas Chapel on the Island. The bathroom has a shower, basin and wc. The studio has a double bed, TV, fridge, tea making facilities and French doors which open out onto the garden area with table and chairs. There is an ensuite shower with basin and wc.
