We truly look forward to meeting you all.
The owner
We have travelled to Sennen Cove as a family two to three times a year for many years.
I (Geoff) began my career as an apprentice floor layer at the young age of 16, working in and around Greater Manchester. At 20, an exciting opportunity took me abroad, where I spent a year in Brussels before traveling across Europe. I worked with renowned hotel chains, including The Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, and Arora, gaining invaluable experience and insights along the way.
The skills and knowledge I developed during those early years served me well, leading to a successful career working with many British carpet manufacturers. In 1992, I took the leap and established my own Ltd company. After years of hard work, I semi-retired in 2010, settling in the stunning Sennen Cove. Drawing from my travels and industry experience, I ventured into the holiday accommodation business, launching Grassmead and Grasscroft, followed by the self-built Seagrass.
Now, in retirement, we run a thriving holiday business and have never looked back. We were captivated by the breathtaking landscape and spectacular sea views of West Cornwall and continue to find joy in this incredible place. Jan and I are also proud grandparents to eight wonderful grandchildren, who love visiting and making the most of the outdoor adventures right on our doorstep.
Over the years, we have stayed in all types of accommodation, but self-catering has always felt the most special—allowing us to truly embrace the surroundings and enjoy our time in our own way. Today, we have the privilege of welcoming guests from all over the world and sharing this incredible corner of Cornwall.
We wholeheartedly believe that once you begin to explore West Cornwall, you’ll be drawn back time and time again to this unspoiled paradise.
Jan and I look forward to welcoming you and making your stay unforgettable.
