On a road that many consider to be one of the finest drives in the UK, you will find on the south-west coast of Cornwall the village of Pendeen, home to this delightful holiday home Chi Lowen. A traditional granite cottage beautifully renovated to bring it perfectly into the 21st century, it is host to four bedrooms and features outstanding views out to the sea, perfectly suited to a couple or group of avid walkers because of the proximity to the coastal path. Enter the cottage after a fun-filled day and move into the sitting room to put on the woodburning stove, set in the middle of a vibrant orange fireplace, complementing the rooms decor and the sofas beautifully, a great place to unwind with a glass of wine. When it's time to prepare the evening meal, follow the chef into the kitchen/diner and sit at the long farmhouse style bench oak table and be impressed when dinner is served. The kitchen is equipped with every appliance you will need, and looks out of the back of the property overlooking the sea. An enclosed gravelled patio area lies to the back with seating, so you can come out and enjoy your morning coffee and watch the world wake up as you do before this gorgeous vista. When it's time to rest your head at night, the first-floor is home to four bedrooms; two king-size, one of which has an en-suite shower, and two doubles, each with rustic exposed granite stone walls and wooden ceiling beams. all of which are served by a first-floor WC and hand basin, and the family bathroom found on the ground-floor with a WC, hand basin, bath and shower over. Being in the centre of the quaint coastal village of Pendeen means you have pubs and shops on your doorstep, as well as various small local businesses with fresh local produce. Take advantage of the proximity to the coastal path and walk alongside the sea to experience some stunning scenery and landscapes, and stop along some of the most picturesque coves and landmarks. You are near to the famous Land's End where you can enjoy a great day out with the family, or head over to the popular town of Penzance, move further to Marazion and walk up to St Michael's Mount when the tide is out.

Reviews
I would not recommend staying at Chi Lowen, whilst the location is perfect in a lovely little village close to the coast. The cleanliness really does let this accommodation down. Upon arrival we were met with cobwebs all over the ceiling in the entrance hall, thick layers of dust everywhere including surfaces of furniture, rotten food left in the bottom of the dishwasher and mould in the washing machine drawer. Not to mention the fridge was filthy dirty with a distinct smell of spilt milk or similar. The bedroom with en-suite had black spots of mould all over the ceiling in the bedroom itself and the shower cubicle deeming that bedroom unuseable. The small front garden was unkept and the grass overgrown - this would take 5 minutes to mow if that so why wasn't it done? The brambles from the neighbours garden overhang making the very narrow pathway leading to the main entrance door unusable. Furthermore, the outside security light is so dull that you cannot see where you are stepping at night and as a result my sister fell flat on her face leaving the cottage one evening to head out to dinner. I did message the owner regarding the cleanliness, she informed me that prior to our arrival the housekeeper had spent 6 hours cleaning. I am sorry to say I am unable to believe this. The owner did arrange for the housekeeper to return but it was only to address the issues I raised above, it still remained dirty. As I say, a real shame as with some care and maintenance it could be a lovely holiday home.
