The Pickle Pot

The Pickle Pot is a single-storey, one-bedroom apartment in Mawgan Porth, sleeping 2 and booked by couples only. The open-plan living space has a 32-inch Freeview TV and a kitchen with a cooker, microwave, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. The bedroom area holds a 4ft 6in double, and the shower room has a cubicle shower. Gas central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi are included, and a welcome pack waits on arrival.

The apartment is one of two beside the owner's home, next to The Jam Store, and takes its name from the owner's marmalade, pickle and jam business. Outside is a lawned garden with a patio, furniture and a gas barbecue, shared with the neighbouring apartment. 1 medium-sized dog is welcome. Private parking takes 2 cars.

The beach at Mawgan Porth is 300 yards away, about 0.2 miles. The village shop, pub and restaurant are about 0.75 miles. Watergate Bay is 3 miles along the road or the coast path, and the village sits between Newquay and Padstow. See the Mawgan Porth guide for the village.

Best for couples with one dog who want a short walk to the sand and a ground-floor flat with its own parking. Less good for families, groups and anyone with a large dog or more than one, since the policy allows a single medium-sized dog.
