Property code: OC-P00357

This impressive property is finished to an extremely high standard and is designed to meet the expectations of the most discerning holidaymaker. Oak wood flooring throughout the main reception areas, a suspended wood burning stove and bespoke double front door are just a few of the many outstanding highlights that Farmlands has to offer. Lovely views across the rolling countryside and out towards the sea can be enjoyed thanks to the large windows and french doors.  Porthcothan Bay is just a 10 minute walk down the road and is easily accessed by using the public footpath at the bottom of the lane which takes you nearly all the way to the beach in safety.  Porthcothan Bay is a lovely sandy beach backed with sand dunes. For keen walkers Farmlands is within easy reach of coastal footpaths which to the south will take you to the National Trust headland and the famous Bedruthan Steps, and to the north to Trevose Head and Padstow beyond, providing you with some of the most spectacular views around. Whatever activities you pursue, Farmlands will be a pleasure to come back to at the end of a busy day - in the summer months a relaxing evening in the garden or for those cooler evenings cosying up in front of the woodburning stove!

Our family of four spent a fantastic week at Farmlands. The property is located in a quiet spot of the top of a valley overlooking Porthcothan Bay. The beach is only a short walk 5-10mins along a footpath. The accommodation was perfect for our needs, the open plan living space worked really well and offers brilliant sunset views. We had a minor issRead moreue which the owner dealt with straight away which was much appreciated. We highly recommend Farmlands and hope to stay again in the near future. Hide
