Property code: OC-P00700

This wonderful property, situated just 1.5 miles from dog-friendly Harlyn Bay, is perfect for you and your guests. Sleeping six across three tranquil bedrooms with your loyal canine companion welcome too, it won’t be long before you’re all off down the South West Coast Path enjoying walkies and taking in the stunning scenery. But there’s plenty to do at home too - have family table tennis tournaments in the sunny conservatory while the pup watches on.

The holiday home is neutrally-styled with pops of colour in the furnishings. The lounge and dining room are separated by a charming stone feature wall with a built-in electric fire in the lounge that the dog will love curling up by as you snuggle up on the sofa. The fresh and bright kitchen has everything you need to cook up a storm and eat in the dining room, or head out to the large enclosed garden to grill up a BBQ and dine alfresco. If it gets a little chilly, retire to the conservatory where there’s seating around the table tennis table. There’s also a handy ground-floor WC. Upstairs, three bedrooms sit in the eaves; two king-size rooms and a cosy twin all have calming decor with a coastal theme to remind you of your proximity to the sea. Enjoy a relaxing soak or an invigorating shower in the bright and airy bathroom.

The central point of the Seven Bays area, you can access all seven bays within 4 miles – six of which are dog-friendly. Walk or cycle the Camel Trail from Wadebridge (9.5 miles) that leads all the way to Bodmin (15.5 miles), or for a more leisurely day, wander the streets of foodie paradise Padstow (3 miles), where dogs are welcome in many restaurants, cafes and even the National Lobster Hatchery.

We stayed at Castaways Sept 2023 .. one week /four adults. Great location to explore Cornwall. Booking and stay arrangements very easy. Castaways was excellent. Tucked away in very quiet area. The house was spotlessly clean and very spacious. Garden areas lovely ,,, private and not overlooked at all. Plenty of room for a dog and children to runRead more around. Beds very comfortable. Bed linen and towels excellent. Plenty of room. Upstairs bathroom big with large walk-in shower and bath. 2nd toilet downstairs. The kitchen was very spacious and had everything you could possibly need. All in great condition. Lounge and Conservatory area lovely. table tennis great fun. The driveway has room for one care but there is plenty of off road parking by Castaway. There was nothing we could fault and We definitely plan to stay again. 10/10 Hide

We absolutely loved staying at Castaways, we would highly recommend it. With 3 young children, we couldnt have asked for a more child/family friendly place to stay - just brilliant.

Our third stay at Castaways. Very comfortable and well equipped house with a good sized garden. The conservatory with a full size table tennis table is very handy for wet days.
