Property code: OC-P00282

Situated on the cusp of a family-run farm, this Cornish gem sleeps six guests and has ample room for a cosy basket. You’ll be a stone’s throw from the nearby holiday park with its array of amenities, plus the dog-friendly beach is accessible within a 1-mile walk. Return sand-strewn and salty-pawed to delicious meals around the table and lazy evenings relaxing on the sofas with your favourite drink in hand whilst the wood burner crackles invitingly from the hearth.

Beneath the stone exterior is a cosy haven characterised by slate floors, comfortable furniture and a bespoke oak staircase that leads to the two delightful bedrooms on the first floor. Recline in the lounge and watch TV with a sleeping pooch at your feet, rousing for mealtimes prepared with gusto in the country cottage-style kitchen/diner. Outside, the small patio is perfect for al fresco suppers on balmy afternoons, and there is a shared drying area for your laundry needs. Upstairs, you’ll have a choice between a king-size bedroom and a handy family room that features bunk beds and zip-and-link beds that can be a super-king or twins on request. For an extra treat, both bedrooms have en-suite facilities.

Porthcoven Bay is hugely popular for surfers, sea-paddlers and sand dune explorers alike, offering a dramatic series of rock formations and a vast expanse of sand for beach games and family fun. Rock pools, caves and a backdrop of sand dunes are equally as exciting for keen explorers, and best of all, furry visitors are welcome here all year round. Once you have had your fill of sand and sea, the welcoming pub is the perfect pit stop to satisfy your appetite and tempt Fido’s tastebuds with a few treats.

  • 2 bedrooms - 1 king-size, 1 twin room with full-size bunk beds (the twin beds can be converted to a non-zip-and-linked super-king if required)

What can I say it was our second stay at bowgie and as the first stay it was perfect we cant praise it enough. Spotlessly clean thanks to the cleaner whom we met everything works as it should and decoration in good order . Kitchen has everything you would ever need the homemade biscuits are delicious.

The accommodation was very clean, well equipped and comfortable. There was a welcome tray on our arrival with tea, coffee, milk and and delicious homemade biscuits. It was in a quiet location, close to a footpath leading to the coast path which was great for walking. Parking was available for 2 cars. We had a lovely time staying at Bowgie and Read morevisiting the beautiful surrounding area. Hide
