Driftwood Apartments are conveniently situated in an authentic thriving working Cornish village. Seagrass is the second of three apartments to be completed and the decoration has been inspired by the muted colours of sea glass and coastal holidays that we enjoyed as children. We have off road private parking at the back of the property. There is also a communal garden with a number of seating areas where guests can relax and use the BBQ if they wish.
Jamie and I moved from a beautiful part of Wales to Cornwall in October 2019 because we fell in love with the area and the people so much. We want to share these fantastic experiences with lots of people. We bought Driftwood as a huge renovation / labour of love project because we could see its potential as a fabulous base from which to explore Cornwall. We really love living in Par, which is thriving all year round. We want to give our guests the big Cornish welcome that we have always enjoyed and welcome people to stay with us and have fun experiencing the many things that are on offer on our door step as well as further afield.
There are shops, convenience stores, pubs and cafes in walking distance. Beautiful local beaches include Par Beach, Polkerris Beach and Carlyon Bay. The South West Coastal Path goes through Par village. There are numerous cycling routes the area allowing you to explore Cornwall in a unique way. There is a down hill cycling park 4 miles away.There is a mainline railway station with direct access to London, Paddington. Newquay is only 19 miles away.
