Camel Quarry House is a radically bold and ecologically conscious building constructed from slate, wood, concrete and glass. Designed by McLean Quinlan, it features a box-like open-plan top floor that exposes the vast panoramic views of the picturesque Camel Estuary, an area of outstanding natural beauty. The interior design is minimalist and calming, with modern furniture sourced from bespoke artisans. The colour palette of oak and cream evokes an air of luxury.
This is the unique Cornish rental home.

the garden
The imaginative and magical garden is every bit as well-planned as the house, with a luxurY cedar hot tub and a stylish fire pit being two of the many features you’ll discover as you stroll around. It was designed by Mary Reynolds (who won the coveted Gold Medal for her ‘Celtic garden’ at the Chelsea Flower Show). Look out for the Myburgh Designed copper swinging pumpkin seat, the Sophie Ryder sculptures, and the fire-pit seating twenty!

EXTRAS
The house is kitted out with a large terrace and a fireplace/BBQ, plus another BBQ in the garden. A Hi-Fi system that runs from Spotify, and a multimedia room with a large Flatscreen LCD TV. There is a Cedar hot tub at the top of the garden with views over Padstow and the Estuary, and an outdoor shower for use after a swim in the sea or after the hot-tub. We have a gym in the basement too. There is also a service lift for heavier items. We also have a mooring if you'd like to bring a boat. The driveway is through five fields, and is also used as a farm track.
