Zapadiah

Zapadiah is a single-storey three-bedroom cottage in Higher Tristram, Polzeath, sleeping six across one bathroom. All three bedrooms are on the ground floor, and the merchant notes that access to the property is via a steep driveway. A lawned garden and private parking are both included.

Polzeath Beach is 500 yards on foot, a wide Atlantic-facing sand beach with consistent surf, a surf school operating May to September, and seasonal lifeguard cover. Greenaway Beach is 800m, a smaller and quieter cove used mainly by locals. Daymer Bay is 0.8 miles south around the headland, sheltered and flat - better for paddleboarding and swimming than surfing. The coast path north from Polzeath runs along the cliff edge towards Pentire Point and the Rumps.

WiFi, dishwasher, and washing machine are provided. Bed linen and towels are not included in the rent and can be hired from Eco Laundry. The village has a co-op, a surf hire shop, several cafes, and a pub within 500m. Rock is accessible across the estuary by a short drive via Wadebridge. Friday changeover, which differs from the Saturday norm in the village.

This property suits groups of up to six who want single-level accommodation within walking distance of a surf beach. Guests who need step-free access should check with the owner before booking. Not suitable for guests wanting a remote or rural setting - Higher Tristram is a residential cluster with neighbours. No dogs permitted.
