“Just perfect!”

A real home from home, and the best equipped holiday cottage I have ever stayed in. The garden and conservatory were lovely, and the owners have done everything and more to make the stay comfortable.

A minute from the beach and the perfect location from which to explore Cornwall. We loved it, and we will be back!

“Lovely location,no need for car as beach across the road”

Mrs Oats August 2020

“Amazing location - extremely close to the beautiful Harlyn Bay beach.”

Literally 1 min walk. Beach was great as gorgeous sand and lots of space for everyone to distance themselves. Lifeguards also on duty so felt very safe. Fab family beach with surfers, body boarders, swimmers, families & pooches too - catered for all!. Loved it. Also worth parking at Harbour Cove (short drive away & also dog friendly) and walking along the beach all the way to Padstow - about 40 mins - well worth it. Access to SW coastal path walks from this location too. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Lovely welcome pack of tea, biscuits and even some treats for our dog. Plenty of cleaning / sanitising items too. Bedding / towels professionally cleaned which was lovely. Bathroom looked new and was lovely and new carpets upstairs too. Conservatory was a nice place to chill and we all felt that we had space if we needed it. Garden adequate size to sit and enjoy a BBQ tea. Improvements: Could do with a bigger fridge / freezer. Also new tv would improve stay as sound was an issue - couldn't get any on our first night. Lots of switching HDMI etc etc - too much of a faff! Owner aware and was very friendly when contacted so will hopefully will be sorted in the future. Not great mobile signal either which didn't worry us. House generally clean but would benefit from skirting dusted / kitchen drawers & cupboards having a good clean out. Some building work going on in the area but not too much of an issue. All in all a very comfortable, well equipped home in an amazing location. Definitely worth a stay. You won't be disappointed - we had a fab holiday.

Mrs Sensecall May 2019

“Welcoming and friendly owner and caretaker, who exceeded our expectations, and gave us great recommendations.”

Cottage was comfy and clean, with amazing access to the beach and great 'welcome pack'. If we were to make any recommendations, it would be to install a new, more powerful shower.

“We all had a lovely time, the cottage had everything we needed, the owner extremely helpful.”

The location was perfect, just a couple of minutes from the beach. Beautiful walks on the doorstep.

“Couldn't fault the accommodation, clean, comfortable and well equipped.”

Serves as a great base for the area - Harlyn Bay and all the other bays, Padstow and coastal walks.

Mrs Purnell June 2018

“The house was fantastic and in terms of self catering it was the one that has been best equipped for small children.”

We had two under two and it was so useful. There were plenty of beach toys to borrow, a stair guard, a bath seat, an additional mattress to ensure it was a comfy cot, good high chair and plastic plates etc. The only niggle we had was that there was no recycling available onsite. You could see neighbouring properties had recycling available and it would be good if it could be looked into. We were conscientious and took all of ours to Padstow and took the plastic to the Eden Project but I fear others wouldn’t do so. It was a fantastic holiday and we would definitely visit again.

“The house was warm and comfortable, we had everything we needed.”

The owner of the property was very, very helpfull. When we first arrived we needed a little help to work the TV and she replied propmptly and efficiently. Its a great location for the beach and access to the surrounding area. If I had one suggestion to make , it would be to have a bigger fridge- to handle the beers :-)

The cottage has been furnished with the family in mind with three bedrooms offering options for all.

There is a comfortable sitting room to relax after a day on the beach and a separate kitchen and dining area which leads to the sunny conservatory.

From here the enclosed garden offers room for the children to play with a choice of toys supplied by the owners.

When it comes to dining out you have a wide choice to suit everyone.

There is also a beach shop here for all your beach requirements as well as surf hire and surf school facilities.

Just a mile away is the village of St Merryn which is home to Rick Stein's pub, The Cornish Arms offering classic seafood as well as pub food classics.

With a variety of beaches and beautiful bays close by accessed either by the stunning coastal path or a short drive there will always be so many places to enjoy and explore.

About the location

HARLYN, CORNWALL

Padstow 2.5 miles, Constantine 2 miles; Polzeath 15 miles.

Harlyn is a charming little village, with a large crescent shaped sandy beach, safe for swimming, surfing and dog friendly all year round. Harlyn Bay is considered to be one of the best family beaches in Cornwall with a north-facing shore, beckoning surfers to brave the white waves that surge towards golden sands. Connected to the South West Coastal Path and part of the 'Seven Bays for Seven Days' area this is also an ideal location for walkers to explore the beautiful Cornish countryside. Constantine Bay just two miles away offers golf at the Trevose Championship course. Nearby Padstow lies at the head of the Camel Trail along the Camel Estuary and local cycle hire shops enable visitors to enjoy the area easily. Padstow is a delightful fishing port offering ample opportunity to taste locally sourced produce, as well as the award-winning Camel Valley wines, in celebrity owned establishments. Local fisherman's boats offer coastal tours and sea fishing trips, while a passenger ferry takes you across the estuary to Rock with the windsurfing beach of Daymer Bay and golf at the famous St Enedoc course. Just around the corner toward Pentire Head is the surfing paradise at Polzeath, and when the beach no longer calls there are several stately homes and gardens to visit as well as special events at the Cornish County Showground.
