The Beach House

The Beach House is a semi-detached house in the heart of Polzeath on the North Cornwall coast, sleeping eight. The beach and the nearest shop are each 0.1 mile away, and a restaurant is 0.3 mile. Polzeath has shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs, and the South West Coast Path runs through the village.

The open-plan living area combines kitchen, dining area and sitting area, and the dining area has sea views. The kitchen has an integrated electric oven, ceramic hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. Heating is by electric radiators and a wood burner. There is a TV, DVD player and WiFi, and fuel, power, bed linen and towels are included.

All three bedrooms are on the first floor. One has a fixed super king bed, one has a double, and the third holds three single beds and a low truckle bed. A family bathroom has a bath, the utility room has a shower, and a cloakroom has a basin and WC. A first-floor balcony leads out to a patio area, and private parking takes two cars.

Two pets are welcome and smoking is not allowed. Wadebridge is 7.5 miles away and Padstow 16 miles, and Port Isaac is a 6.8 mile drive. The house suits two families sharing, and is less good for a group of adults who each want their own room, since four beds sit in one bedroom.
