Nestled in the upmarket seaside resort of Rock, this charming Victorian cottage offers a sublime coastal escape. Providing ample accommodation for up to eight guests and welcoming one playful pup, this stylish abode is ideal for family gatherings or a getaway with friends. Spend your days hiking the coast path with your pup or scampering on sandy beaches, and return here to laze in the mature garden and relax in the elegant lounge.
Sympathetically renovated, this two-storey cottage blends period features such as slate floors, beamed ceilings and statement fireplaces with cool, coastal-chic interiors. Set beneath an atmospheric beamed ceiling, the light-filled lounge is spacious yet cosy with an assortment of comfy seating and a warming wood burner. Keen chefs can cook up a storm on the AGA, before gathering the pack for memorable mealtimes. Choose between a breakfast and dining table in the kitchen/diner, or dine alfresco on the shady terrace. Upstairs, two king-size and two twin bedrooms ensure a restful night’s sleep, while three bathrooms keep shower queues to a minimum.
Delight your furry friend with morning walkies on Rock Beach, a sweeping stretch of golden sand that’s dog friendly year round, or head to nearby Daymer Bay (2 miles). Alternatively strike out along coastal trails, where you can appreciate the view while your pup sniffs out rabbits. Sea dogs will love a trip on the ferry over to Padstow to sniff out adventure around the harbour and munch seafood in the dog-friendly eateries. They’re also welcome to join you on a wildlife-watching safari from Padstow Harbour and in the tasting room of the Padstow Brewing Co.
