Porth

Located within Polzeath, just a stone’s throw from the sandy beaches and surf this area is known for, this family-friendly, sophisticated beach house offers a truly peaceful escape for anyone keen to answer the call of the coast. All that’s separating you from Polzeath Beach, less than half a mile away, is a scenic footpath hugging the coastline and winding along to the beach; you can find a range of excellent surf schools here where you can hire kit and take lessons. If you prefer a more tranquil beach setting, the secluded Baby Bay, a mile away, makes a great spot to watch the sunset. Head to the village of Rock, 3 miles away, to browse the shops, sample the fantastic local cuisine or take the ferry across to the beautiful harbour town of Padstow, 16 miles away, a paradise for food lovers.

Flooded with plenty of natural sunlight through the bi-fold patio doors, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner that welcomes you into this seaside escape perfectly combines soothing nautical hues with sophisticated contemporary touches. At the end of a busy beach day, unwind weary walking muscles on the plush sofa or refuel by whipping up something delicious with your fabulous local fare in the sleek and stylish kitchen. On a fine evening, open the bi-fold patio doors to the sun deck to make the most of al fresco dining. You can also enjoy an open outlook onto the sun deck from the en-suite double bedroom, which boasts patio doors to the sun deck and soothing neutral tones. The second double bedroom and super-king-size zip-and-link bedroom (can be made up as a twin) offer a haven of tranquillity to retire before kick-starting your next adventure with a refreshing shower in the family bathroom.

Featuring a charcoal BBQ and outdoor dining furniture, the beautiful sun deck is perfect for entertaining, from a big family celebration to a quiet sundowner. Outside, you’ll also find a surf rack, a wetsuit drying rail, and a heated outdoor shower, ideal for washing off sandy toes. There is private parking for two cars.
