Our nearest beach – Porthcothan, only a 10 minute walk away is a delightful little bay, great for bathing, surfing and snorkelling. We are situated in the best area to explore the North Coast and local hot spots of Padstow & Newquay. We also have a bus stop to take you either way along the coast. We welcome both families and couples looking for a chilled, relaxing holiday – we do allow small groups but please call to confirm before booking, we are a quiet family-run site. Sleep under the Cornish stars, eat some of the best local food in our wonderful farm garden, meet our animals, ride a pony or enjoy a drink or two on our gorgeous veranda and soak in the views of the valley.

Neighbourhood information

Located in the ‘Seven Bays’ – Porthcothan beach is a 10 minute walk away from us or a 5 minute bus ride down the hill. It is a north west-facing cove backed by grassy dunes popular for sunbathing and a favourite with families. The sandy beach opens out at low tide, connecting up with small coves to the north and south and at high tide the beach becomes very sheltered from swell and winds due to the cliffs. Swimming and board sports are on offer in a sheltered sea. The coast path gives wonderful views to both the north and the south as well as displaying a variety of wildlife. Parking, shops and toilet facilities are close by with beach level access. This pristine beach is often crowd-free and a haven for swimmers and bodyboarders, but its starring role as Nampara Cove in BBC’s Poldark series has – understandably – put its beauty in the spotlight. We are also conveniently located a 5min walk from the South West Coast path and 20min from the popular tourist destinations of Padstow and Newquay.
