Sandwood Studios

Sandwood Studios is a one-bedroom cottage in Crantock sleeping two with one bathroom. The property has an enclosed garden. Wi-Fi, parking, and a dishwasher are included. No washing machine.

Crantock Beach is 1.2km by road, a wide arc of sand at the mouth of the River Gannel backed by dunes. The beach is lifeguarded in season and is considerably less crowded than Newquay's beaches 3km north. Porth Joke - also known as Polly Joke - is 1.9km, a narrow NT-owned cove with no facilities and strong demand on sunny days. Vugga Cove is also 1.9km. Crantock village itself has a pub, a National Trust tea room, and a small shop.

This studio suits a couple wanting a quiet Cornish village base with good beach access and the option of Newquay's facilities when needed. The garden is useful for warmer evenings. Not great for those needing a washing machine or who want to be directly on the sand - 1.2km is a reasonable walk. No dogs listed. 5 Sykes reviews. Friday changeover, which works well for a long weekend or a mid-week break.

One bedroom sleeps two with Wi-Fi, parking, a dishwasher, and an enclosed garden included. No washing machine, so short breaks suit this property better than two-week stays. Porth Joke at 1.9km is National Trust-owned and car-free, which makes a meaningful contrast to the more visitor-heavy Crantock beach on a peak summer day.
