Step Inside

Designed with grown-up gatherings in mind, Samsara sleeps up to eight guests across four beautifully styled bedrooms, each with its own ensuite – no queues, no sharing, just your own private sanctuary.

At the heart of the house lies a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, made for entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors slide open onto a vast balcony where mornings start with yoga or coffee overlooking the bay. For the ultimate celebration, invite a private chef to create a bespoke dining experience right in your holiday home.

The interiors are striking with statement furniture, vibrant colours, and quirky artwork that spark conversation at every turn. From a Snoopy mural and surf-inspired pieces to eclectic pieces, Samsara’s design is as creative and spirited as its Cornish setting.

When it’s time to unwind, retreat to the private sauna and steam room, or sink into the bubbling hot tub beneath a canopy of stars. Outside, the suntrap gardens, dotted with sculptures and hidden seating spots, are perfect for everything from lazy afternoons with a book to all-out celebrations with friends.

As the night cools, light the woodburner and gather for fireside drinks and late-night conversations. With private on-site parking adding convenience to style, Samsara blends indulgence with ease.

This isn’t just a place to stay – it’s a luxurious escape by the sea, designed for cool people to relax, celebrate, and create unforgettable memories.

On Your Doorstep

Beyond the house, adventure awaits. Follow the scenic cliffside path into St Ives – a buzzing hub of art and culture – or set sail from the harbour.

Foodies and culture lovers will find themselves spoiled: Michelin-star dining, artisan shops, and world-class galleries like Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum are all nearby. Fancy getting hands-on? Try a workshop at the famous Leach Pottery and discover the art of clay.

Beach days are easy here – golden stretches like Porthmeor, Porthminster, Porthgwidden, and Bamaluz are all within walking distance, perfect for surfing, paddle-boarding, or barefoot strolls. For wilder beauty, head west to Sennen Cove or Gwynver, or explore landmarks like Land’s End, St Michael’s Mount, and Cape Cornwall.
