Sunset

Sunset is a 4-bedroom cottage in Polzeath, sleeping 7 across 4 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. The kitchen, dining room and sitting room are on the ground floor, and the enclosed garden provides outdoor space for dogs and children. Wi-Fi, dishwasher, and washing machine are included. Up to two pets are welcome, and the enclosed garden gives them room to run. Friday changeover.

Polzeath beach is 700m from the property - a wide, north-facing bay with consistent Atlantic swell that supports several surf schools during summer. Greenaway Beach is 0.9 miles, and Daymer Bay - calmer and more sheltered, popular with younger children - is 1.1 miles. Rock village with its restaurants and the passenger ferry to Padstow is about 1.9 miles south along the estuary. Port Isaac, the fishing village used for filming Doc Martin, is roughly 6.2 miles east along the coast path.

This cottage is well suited for groups of 6 or 7 who want a Polzeath base with beach access that requires very little driving day to day. Three beaches are within walking distance. Guests who need step-free access should check with the owner before booking. Less good for groups who want a remote rural setting - this is a village location with neighbouring properties.
