Atlantic View

Atlantic View is a three-bedroom cottage with sea views in the hamlet of Trenance near Mawgan Porth on the North Cornwall coast. The property occupies the lower floor of a detached house at the end of a private road, sleeping 6 with an accessible ground-floor layout and Saturday changeovers from £657 per week.

Inside, the cottage has WiFi, dishwasher, and washing machine. The sloping grassy garden is enclosed by a low stone wall, with a private gate leading onto a footpath down to Mawgan Porth beach just 0.3 km away. Dog-friendly, with the beach and village accessible without getting in the car. Off-road parking is available on arrival.

Bedruthan Steps - a line of dramatic sea stacks managed by the National Trust - is 1.8 km along the coast path. Watergate Bay is 3.3 km south, where the surf school and the Hotel & Extreme Academy operate. The village has a pub, beach cafe, garage, and a small grocery store all within a 5-minute walk. Newquay is 6 miles south, Padstow 8 miles north-east.

Best for: families or groups with a dog wanting immediate beach access and a manageable North Cornwall base. Less good for: guests expecting a town or village centre on the doorstep, or those needing more than 2 bathrooms for 6 people.
