EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the mesmerizing coastal beauty of Porthcurno, Cornwall in the 1960s. A man stands at the window of a remarkable tiny house nestled into the rugged rocks, offering an enchanting view of the sandy cove below. This unique dwelling was ingeniously built as a summer retreat for Miss Cade's nieces, who were fortunate enough to enjoy its breathtaking surroundings. As we peer through the window with him, our eyes are drawn to the lower room adorned with a cozy fireplace and a stone seat that invites relaxation and warmth on chilly evenings. A staircase gracefully ascends to another room above, adding an element of mystery and intrigue to this small but charming abode. A delightful detail catches our attention as well - a theatre programme from Minack Theatre is proudly displayed on the front door. This serves as a reminder that culture and art have found their way even into this remote haven by the sea. This evocative image captures not only an era long gone but also showcases how human ingenuity can harmonize with nature's grandeur. It reminds us that sometimes it is in simplicity and modesty where true beauty resides.
