Demelza Cottage

Demelza Cottage is a stone-built property near Kilkhampton, sleeping 6 across 3 bedrooms - 2 doubles and 1 twin. Both first-floor bedrooms face the coast, and on a clear day the sea is visible from the upper rooms. The enclosed garden has a furnished patio and a BBQ, making it a practical space for groups who want outdoor meals without exposure to the wind.

Sandymouth Beach is 1.6 km away - a National Trust-managed beach with rock pools and a stream running across the sand. Duckpool Beach is a further 300 metres at 1.9 km, a more remote cove with no facilities but good surfing potential. The north Cornish coast path runs between both beaches and connects south toward Bude, around 6 km away.

The property has a dishwasher, BBQ, Wi-Fi, parking, and a garden. No washing machine on-site. Up to 2 dogs welcome. The cottage has a star rating of 6 and rated 3.5 across 4 reviews - a small sample, so worth reading the individual reviews before booking.

Good for groups or families who want sea views and quick beach access without the premium of a coastal position. Not great for those expecting a high-spec kitchen or no-dogs environment, as the rating reflects a no-frills interior.
