Mr Williams
July 2018

“Really nice, spacious house with plenty of facilities and in a good location.”

We had a lovely time there. Next door neighbour was very helpful if we needed anything. The fairy lights in the conservatory were a nice touch, we spent a few nights in there! The only slight gripe we had was the oven; the numbers had worn off the control knobs, so you didn't really know how hot the halogen rings or the oven were. We like to cook most of our meals, so we spent a lot more on restaurants than we anticipated. As I say, this was only a minor thing, everything else was fine. ...

Also, we found a good butchers, an excellent fishmonger and a good wine merchant in Wadebridge; these things are few and far between in Cornwall, as most of the shops (especially in the tourist areas) tend to sell crystals and assorted tat. We would definitely recommend this place, as it has a lot of character.

“On street parking and may have to park some distance from the house.”
Mr Collinson January 2017

“Brilliant property, perfect location, superb value and have every intention of booking it again.”

Only 2 criticisms, the kitchen and main bathroom could have done with an extra wipe round, the rest of the house was fine, oh and no teapot.

The property

This spacious semi-detached house is set in the village of Delabole, in the heart of King Arthur Country and is close to Tintagel and the ancient market town of Camelford.

You will sense the homely feel immediately when you enter the house which is full of character, offering perfect family accommodation as a base for touring Cornwall, especially the rugged north coast.

There are three large bedrooms, two of which are on the first floor with a family bathroom, and one is located on the second floor, along with a shower room.

The comfortable living room has a lovely open fire and is ideal for both dining and relaxing.

The well-equipped kitchen leads through a conservatory out to a large enclosed garden, perfect for relaxing after a great day out.

The village of Delabole lies within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which enjoys the same status and protection as a national park.

Being in the heart of the village a very short stroll brings you to the village pub, The Bettle and Chisel, a listed inn with a comprehensive menu offering locally sourced food and local ales.

The well-known Smugglers Fish and Chip shop is a popular place to stop after a long day spent on the beach.

Also a lovely half mile walk away is the Poldark Inn on the cliffs, and a 10 minute drive or a 45 minute walk, will get you to Trebarwith Strand.

This has a stunning beach with great surf and small cafe and shop.

It also has the Port William Inn, a traditional smugglers haunt, which does amazing food in a stunning setting overlooking the sea.

There is an incredible number of stunning beaches within 20 minutes’ drive, offering a wide variety of surf and sea based activities.

There are also many walking opportunities close by and the wild surfing beach at Tregardock, a 40 minute walk away, is well worth seeing.

Also within easy reach are Tintagel with St Nectan's Glen and King Arthur’s Castle, Port Isaac (Doc Martin), Boscastle and Padstow, as well as the cities of Truro and Plymouth both being about 45 minutes away.

This superb house is an ideal base with spectacular countryside, cliffs, beaches, historic fishing villages, tin mines and adventurous activities all close by.

About the location

DELABOLE

Tintagel 3.5 miles; Camelford 5 miles; Port Isaac 6 miles.

At one time the producer of the world’s best quality building and ornamental slate, this now sleepy village is just 2.5 miles from the high cliffs and dramatic scenery of the north Cornish coastline. Perfectly placed for walking the South West coastal path, exploring the high places of nearby Bodmin Moor, or for lazing on the beach at nearby Trebarwith Strand, it’s a well-placed holiday base. The peaceful harbour village of Port Isaac and the town of Tintagel, with its tourist attractions and King Arthur’s legendary castle, are both a short drive, while the stunning surfing beach at Polzeath is a mere nine miles away. Slaughtersbridge, where King Arthur reputedly fought his last battle, is five minutes away and a drive north along the coast takes in the beautiful cove at Crackington Haven. An area away from the main tourist crowds, but very central to a vast array of places and activities. Delabole Quarry itself is just down the road and is an interesting tourist attraction with stunning views. It is the gateway to great countryside walks.
