Bay View House
cottage in Crantock
1930s detached house at West Pentire with sea views over Crantock Bay. Sleeps 6.
Bay View House is a detached 1930s property on the National Trust headland at West Pentire, between Crantock village and the coast, sleeping 6 across 3 bedrooms. Sea views over Crantock Bay are visible from the house - one of the distinguishing features of this position above the road.
Inside, the house keeps its period character with a traditional decorative style and 2 bathrooms. A wood burner in the living room makes it practical for shoulder-season breaks. The kitchen and living spaces are well-equipped, and WiFi and a dishwasher and washing machine are included.
The property has exclusive use of 2 gardens, one of which is fully enclosed - useful for families with small children. Crantock Beach, a broad National Trust-managed surf beach with RNLI lifeguard cover in season, is 600 metres away on foot. Porth Joke, a car-free cove accessible only on foot, is 800 metres in the other direction. The Old Albion pub in Crantock village serves food and shares the same coastal views.
**Best for:** Families who want a quiet base with two beaches walkable and sea views from the house. Groups of up to 6 who value outdoor space and a proper garden over town-centre proximity.
**Less good for:** Those needing WiFi for remote working (no WiFi listed). Dog owners - the property does not accept pets despite the enclosed garden.
