Bask in the sunshine in the courtyard garden at this Carbis Bay cottage with your contented canine by your side. The one-bedroom, single-storey annexe makes a superb retreat for a couple or a great getaway for friends wishing to bring a pup along. Situated 1.5 miles from the Cornish coastal town of St Ives, it is just 500 metres from the South West Coast Path, with its fabulous walks for stretching furry legs.
Make your way inside this dog-friendly retreat, which adjoins the owner’s second home but enjoys great privacy, to find ample space for all. Let your pet pad through to the light-filled lounge and stretch out on the rug in the streaming sunshine while you peruse the Smart TV. Fire up the wood burner after bracing walks so he can warm his chilly paws. Take him through to the spacious kitchen/diner to serve his dinner and prepare your own. Settle on the comfortable seating at the table to enjoy your meal while Fido waits patiently for you to finish. When day turns to night, head through to your super-king-size bedroom, which can also be made up as a twin by prior arrangement. This cottage has a shower room with a rainfall shower and WC, and a separate WC for your convenience. Take your pal out for a morning walk on summer days, then return to have breakfast together in the courtyard garden, keeping an eye on him as the wall is low. There is private off-road parking for two cars at this property.
Grab your beach gear and stroll 1.5 miles to Bamaluz Beach, where your happy hound can bound in and out of the waves without restriction. Take him for a walk along the cliffs at the National Trust’s Godrevy, 8 miles away.
