Description
Situation - Little Collorian enjoys a prime location with picturesque views of Trencrom Hill, perfectly positioned between the north and south coasts of Penwith. Its setting provides convenient access to some of Cornwall’s most beloved coastal destinations—St. Ives, Carbis Bay, and Hayle to the north, and Marazion, Perranuthnoe, and Praa Sands to the south.
To the north, the area around St. Ives boasts a collection of beautiful beaches, each offering its own distinctive appeal. Porthmeor Beach, facing the Atlantic and home to the renowned Tate Gallery, is a haven for surfers, while the family-friendly beaches along St. Ives Bay cater to all ages. The region also offers a wealth of outdoor activities, from water sports and scenic coastal walks to a round at the West Cornwall Golf Club—an esteemed course overlooking the estuary, located less than a mile away.
Heading south, you'll discover a range of charming towns and villages. The historic market town of Marazion offers sweeping views across Mounts Bay to the iconic St. Michael’s Mount, while nearby Penzance provides a full array of amenities and a direct rail link to London.

It offers generous living spaces that blend historic features with comfortable modern living, including vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a striking granite inglenook fireplace. The property spans two floors in the main house and is enhanced by a substantial single-storey extension, which offers excellent potential for use as an annexe—making the layout highly adaptable to a range of lifestyle needs.
Inside, the home includes a spacious conservatory that overlooks the gardens and frames scenic views of Trencrom Hill. The dining room opens onto a south-facing courtyard and terraced garden, ideal for outdoor entertaining. The well-equipped kitchen features a range of fitted base and wall units, complemented by elegant granite worktops.
The dual-aspect living room exudes warmth and character with its exposed beams and a statement fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. The ground floor also offers a convenient WC, a secondary entrance hallway, a generous utility room, and a family bathroom. Accommodation includes two double bedrooms on the ground floor, while the first floor hosts two en-suite double bedrooms and an additional double bedroom—providing ample space for family and guests alike.
Outside - Little Collorian is nestled within beautifully landscaped private gardens, lovingly nurtured by the current owners over many years. The grounds are thoughtfully arranged into distinct areas, including rolling lawns, a mature orchard brimming with a variety of fruit trees, a semi-wild meadow that encourages biodiversity, and a well-established vegetable garden complete with a greenhouse—ideal for green-fingered enthusiasts. A secluded rear courtyard adds to the sense of privacy and charm.
The main garden offers direct access to a peaceful stream, while the elevated rear garden provides sweeping views across the surrounding countryside.
