The Little Hawthorns

highlights: - 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms - one bathroom per room, no sharing required - South-facing terrace off the first-floor living area with wood-burning stove - Garden with BBQ area, private parking, and Wi-Fi - Polzeath surf beach 2km, Daymer Bay 2.2km - two very different swimming options - Reverse-living layout brings the kitchen and dining to the first floor - Dog-free property kept to a high cleanliness standard

The Little Hawthorns is a 3-bedroom cottage sleeping 6 in Polzeath, built with a reverse-living layout that puts the main living space - a wide kitchen, dining area, and lounge with wood-burning stove - on the first floor. The south-facing terrace runs off this space and is south-facing, useful for catching afternoon sun after a morning at the beach.

Three separate bathrooms mean no sharing for a group of six, which makes changeover easier for families and friend groups alike. The enclosed garden has a BBQ area and there is off-road parking. Wi-Fi, dishwasher, and washing machine are all included.

Polzeath Beach is 2km away - a reliable surf beach facing northwest with a surf school operating during summer. Daymer Bay sits 2.2km in the other direction, a sheltered estuary beach that is far calmer and better for children or non-swimmers. Greenaway Beach adds a third option at 2.2km.

This property is ideal for families or two couples wanting separate bathrooms and a comfortable base near Cornwall's best surf. Not great for groups with dogs - no pets allowed here.
