Reviews

Fantastic property in a wonderful location - would recommend for family groups.

Mr L,

We stayed here as a large family for New Year. The house was exceptional. Felt really comfortable and the equipment and facilities were amazing. We found everything we needed to cook large family meals.

Mrs S,

Wonderful house in a fantastic location. A group of three generations from 82 to 12 had a lovely Christmas there. The kitchen is extremely well-equipped and we loved the ability to separate into the two lounges during the day. Local facilities were great, beach, shop and golf club with bar, all within easy walking distance. Thouroughly enjoyed our stay and very highly recommend this property.

Mrs R,

A good property, well equipped and well laid out, especially for two families. Very nice garden. Excellent situation as could walk to the beach in 10 mins thereby no need to get in the car. Very good shop at the end of the road.

Mrs B,

A wonderful place to spend a holiday week. So spacious, light and airy, a well provided kitchen, extremely comfortable beds, good spaces for relaxing and chatting, so close to the sea. The village shop is ideal, with Padstow a short drive away. And a week of Cornish sunshine. Perfect!

Mr N,

Location

If you're looking for a traditional family beach holiday, Constantine Bay is hard to beat. With a wide, sweeping stretch of golden sand, it is one of those places that families return to year after year (and often generation after generation). A versatile area, Constantine Bay has something that will appeal to almost everyone, whether you're looking for an active holiday including surfing and other water-sports, a social gathering at the Trevose Golf Club, or a family- and dog-friendly holiday where you can spend all day on the beach, or walk for miles along the winding cliff paths found along this stretch of coastline. The beach allows dogs all year round, meaning that you don't have to leave your best friend at home when you holiday here. And, of course, the kids will love exploring the tidal rock pools and wide expanse of sand that has long made this beach one of the best-loved along this stretch of the beautiful North Cornish coast. A popular holiday destination for those 'in the know', the Bay attracts many groups of families and friends who often holiday together, turning the area into a little community within a community in the busy summer months.
