Overview
Property code: OC-D26830

Enjoy life at the ocean’s edge with a stay at this fabulous family home. Fashionably furnished and full of light, it boasts four double bedrooms and a gorgeous garden, with dog-friendly Mawgan Porth just half a mile downhill.

Located on the cliff-side and surrounded by trees, this drool-inducing des res impresses from the outset. Leave your shoes and dog leads in the spacious hallway and you’ll feel immediately at home; this is a place where a party of eight and their pet can really unwind. Dual-aspect windows in the sitting room offer fine views of the garden and glimpses of the sea; when it’s time to draw the curtains there are two sofas, a large loveseat and Smart TV to induce a sense of calm. On the other side of the hallway, the dining room comfortably accommodates your whole party for companionable mealtimes. Fido can stretch out at your feet as your eat, and it’s only a few steps into the kitchen when he’s ready to devour his own dinner. A handy utility room and cloakroom are located off the hallway, offering laundry facilities, storage space and a place to hang wetsuits and outdoor gear. Dog-tired after an active day? Upstairs, the four airy bedrooms each have double beds and peaceful colour palettes. There are two separate bathrooms on this floor – one with a shower cubicle and the other with a bath with a shower above. Outside, a terrace to the front of the property has a large table and benches so you can enjoy bay views along with alfresco food and drinks. Across the lawn there’s a BBQ, firepit and, to wash sandy toes and paws, a hot outside shower.

Nine miles from Padstow and 5 miles from Newquay on the rugged north Cornwall coast, Mawgan Porth has west-facing sands which are a favourite for surfers and rock pool explorers. The South West Coastal Path passes through the village. Stroll a mile north and you’ll reach the legendary Bedruthan Steps; continue on and you’ll arrive at Trevose Head (8 miles), with its distinctive white lighthouse. En route, Constantine Bay (6 miles) is a true gem: the small village is surrounded by countryside and, on its western edge, a sweeping arc of golden sand that’s backed by dunes and is dog-friendly.

Lovely, well-equipped spacious house, with comfortable beds, lots of living space, a warm(!) outdoor to wash off the sand, place to dry wetsuits and a short walk from the beach.

We have just returned from a lovely week at Dene Court. The house is really homely and was super clean on our arrival and being able to listen to the crashing waves made for a most relaxing time. Just a heads up on the steep walk back up from the beach and also the garden isn't dog friendly or suitable for people with mobility issues. All in all Read morea fab stay and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Dene Court to others. Hide

This house was so perfect for our week long holiday - four adults and two young kids. We loved the proximity to beach and coastal walks. It was well kitted out and good proportions. The laundry/wetsuit room in particular was so useful.

The property was to a high standard, comfortable and accessible. The garden was beautiful and the kids and dog loved playing on the grass. Rooms were all a decent size and two bathrooms were convenient. The outdoor shower was especially good for post beach and sea swimming. Kitchen was well equipped although the owner could/should replace the tRead moreiny fridge and freezer for a more suitably sized one. It got a bit tedious always having to walk to the utility area to reach the larger fridge. A car charger for electric cars would be helpful or an outdoor socket on the driveway. The dryer could/should be plumbed in to remove the water or a sink added to the utility otherwise you are carrying a full drawer of water to the closest sink/front door. The drying rack for wetsuits was awesome but again once the tray below was filled with water it was a balancing act to empty it in the closest sink/front door. We had a brilliant time and would thoroughly recommend. Hide

On arrival the property looked stunning. Inside the property itself it was obvious work had been done to do it up as the decoration and furniture was lovely. On closer inspection though I feel the finish in most of the rooms was poor, a lot of the old fitted wardrobes and cupboards in the kitchen etc had just been repainted and the bathrooms were nRead moreot finished to a high standard. For the cost and location of this property I expected more. My daughter lay on her bedroom floor and noticed it was covered in what looked like dog hairs. So I also had to go round every room and thoroughly clean the carpets to remove any excess hair that the vacuum hadnt picked up. The outside shower is also permanently stuck on hot so we couldnt actually use it. Overall the property was great and we had a lovely week but the list of small issues let it down slightly Hide
