Take a peek into Kate Winslet’s former Cornwall retreat

We’re used to seeing celeb’s lavish mansions but this affordable home, a former property of Kate Winslet, is a pleasant little find in Cornwall.

Looking like it should be in LA, the home sits in a serene and private spot, just back from the coastal town of Hayle. Surrounded by forests, it was designed by local architect Barrie Briscoe, and offers timber terraces wrapped around the home, perfect for enjoying nature away from prying eyes.

The home’s interior offers a cosy but open layout, with the large living and dining area around the modern fireplace. There are four bedrooms tucked into the property, all offering spectacular views.

A short journey from the stunning coastlines of St Ives and Penzance, quaint little Cornish villages and the stunning St Michael’s Mount, this home is a beautiful choice, whether you’re wanting a home or a holiday home.

If you’re a little more active, you’ve come to the right place, with Godrevy and Gwithian offering perfect surfing beaches nearby, but if you’re more into a relaxed stroll then that isn’t a problem, you can wander towards Porthminster, the Minnack Theatre, Godrevy Lighthouse or just into the local village of Angarrack to the village inn!
