The Mount is a detached, character, family house in Crugmeer, a tiny, tranquil hamlet of stone and slate cottages set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This spacious and comfortable home enjoys panoramic views to the front over unspoilt countryside towards the sea, and further sea views to the rear from the upstairs rooms. The large lawned areas and delightful slate patio make this an ideal property for adults and children alike. This stunning location offers privacy and seclusion and yet is only a 10 minute walk to the nearest beach at Trevone. Also within a few miles are some fine sandy surfing beaches and magnificent walks along the coastal footpaths - great for bird watching or spotting seals. There is a well-stocked farm shop nearby. The historic fishing port of Padstow (1.5 miles) boasts a number of shops, pubs and restaurants including Rick Steins.  There are also boat trips from the harbour across to Rock. Activities such as golf, horse riding and water sports are all available nearby. Another ideal beach which is within walkable distance from the cottage is the dog friendly beach of Tregirls, at low tide the beach can expand up to nearly a mile and half with golden sand and small caves to explore.

For us was perfect as we wanted to visit the coast and historic houses and National Trust places, apart from the amazing coves all around. Perfect for dog owners, back garden really secure.

We were so impressed with Original Cottages and the cottage we stayed in. OC made the whole process completely seamless and easy and straightforward. The cottage was just what we were looking for - an amazing location in a quiet village close to the coast but tucked away from crowds, warm and comfortable and well equipped but not grand. It was the Read moreperfect half term week. We could not be happier, thank you. Hide

The photos of the property give the impression that there is a bathroom on the first floor next to the two twin bedrooms. In fact you have to go downstairs and through the lounge to the hall by the front door. Not much fun in the middle of the night. The lounge and dining rooms are small and crammed particularly for six people. The hallway has a nuRead morember of different levels which presents a trip hazard especially at night. The entrance and driveway is tight and narrow and you have to reverse out as you cant turn your car around. Probably best to visit in the summer months as the garden and outside seating areas are good. Hide

The Mount is very comfortable and practical and in a wonderful location, with Trevone, Hawkers Cove and Padstow all an easy walk away. It is extremely well-equipped and the view from the kitchen window lifted my spirits every morning.

Undoubtably one of the best equipped holiday homes we have stayed at. Ideally suited for coastal walking and only a short drive to various glorious beaches and Padstow when you get tired.
