Discover a cosy seaside base nestled in the verdant beauty of North Cornwall, offering families – pets included – a welcoming stay just a few metres from Rock Road and 1 mile from the sea. The quaint village of Penmayne boasts a handful of independently run gems, including a deli and a family-owned bakery – perfect for picking up locally sourced treats on your way to the beach. Stroll through fields towards Porthilly Cove (1 mile), a hidden gem accessed via a winding country lane, or head to the more established Rock Beach (1.5 miles). From Rock, embark on watersports adventures such as water skiing, paddleboarding or sailing, or venture up to Polzeath to join a surf school and take on the waves. From there, continue along the coast path to Pentire Point (4 miles), soaking up the AONB beauty and panoramic views across Gulland Rock and the Trevose Headland.

Designed with both style and comfort in mind, this single-storey retreat has been thoughtfully finished for easy living. The light-filled lounge/kitchen/diner, with its high ceilings, sets the scene for slow mornings and restful evenings. Cook with ease in the sleek, modern kitchen, gather around the dining table set beside French doors, and relax in the inviting lounge. A Scandi-style wood burner adds a cosy glow, while a Smart TV promises evening entertainment. Down the hall, discover three welcoming bedrooms. The master is a delightful king-size with a chic en-suite, a TV and patio doors leading into the garden. Kids will love the bunk bedroom, complete with another TV, Xbox and bean bags, while the final double bedroom offers a bright, spacious spot with picturesque garden views. Completing the interior, a family bathroom has been beautifully styled with a large shower unit and a separate bath.

Outdoors, enjoy alfresco afternoons in the enclosed garden, complete with a lawn, raised decking, outdoor seating and a charcoal BBQ. Private parking for two cars and an outdoor tap add extra convenience after sandy adventures.

Loved the location and the look/layout of the property - purpose built and away from the madding crowds. Modern too, and luxuriously appointed. We loved our stay there - home from home.

The property was modern, well equipped and very clean with nice dcor. The area was fantastic, private and closed off which allowed the dog to have free run around the garden.

We like the area and the property suited our family including the dogs. We especially liked the Big Green Egg BBQ.
