Last year, The Point at Polzeath finished it’s build of 7 eco apartments which feature spacious open plan living areas with floor to ceiling sliding doors leading onto private terraces with views across the golf course and out to Pentire Point and the sea beyond.
Architects, Laurence Associates based in Truro, have fused modern luxury with ecological design and materials to create a premier destination for the environmentally-conscious traveller.
The building itself is beautiful, designed with attention to every detail including the sedum roof and Kebony cladding which helps it to discretely blend with the surroundings. High quality building materials and ground source heat pumps were installed which supply hot water and underfloor heating throughout.
The finish is contemporary with modern light furniture that has been uniquely designed and ‘up cycled’ with subtle hints of seaside living in the accessories. Stone flooring, wood burners and kitchens are individually designed and built by a local craftsman to complete the bespoke look.
Jeremy and Eva Davie, owners of The Point at Polzeath tell us why they chose Kernow Fires to install their woodburners and why they choose the stoves they did.
‘Simon (owner at Kernow Fires) has fitted fires in our home so we already knew their workmanship would fit with the high spec finish we wanted to achieve. We worked with Simon and the team to get a woodburner that complemented our interior design, worked with the energy efficient build and was visible from all areas of the open plan apartments. One of the suggestions Simon made was the Contura 750 and we liked it straight away. It is very tall, slim and elegant. Eva was very clear where she wanted the fires to be, they make a wonderful welcome as you walk up the stairs. You can see the flames, thanks to the large side windows, from both the kitchen and lounge area and the tall slim style fits perfectly with our design concept.’
