Sitting in a quiet rural location, this stylish, boutique retreat is perfect for couples and their beloved canine pals to enjoy a peaceful holiday by the coast. Embark on dune-backed adventures and beachside scrambles before heading back to unwind in the hot tub and pretty garden in this stylish character cottage.

Remove doggie coats, hang up leads and make your way into the getaway, where you'll find stylish decor merged with rustic charm, such as exposed beams, weathered wood shutters and a vaulted ceiling. Settle your pup beside you as you sink into the deep, comfy sofa and pop on the wood burner-effect electric fire to get cosy. Whip up canine titbits in the kitchen, where you'll discover plenty of equipment to cook with ease. Eat together at the charming dining table, before enjoying a nightcap in the pretty garden. While away the hours here with great conversation and soak in the hot tub beneath the fairy-lit canopy. When you're ready for bed, say goodnight to your four-pawed pals and recline in the stunning king-size bedroom, where shutters and original high ceiling beams ensure a serene slumber. The en-suite bathroom is just as inviting, featuring a luxurious free-standing roll-top bath.

Mix it up each day with walkies at North Cornwall's renowned coastline, including Mawgan Porth Beach, Watergate Bay, Harlyn Bay and Treyarnon Bay (all within 11 miles).

The Calf House was an amazing place to spend a week in Cornwall! We were so impressed with all the lovely small touches the owners left for us - fresh flowers, scones, tea and prosecco on arrival. It really felt like a hotel!! The owners have gone above and beyond. The decor is beautiful and you have everything you need and more in the kitchen (cofRead morefee machine, coffee pods, ground coffee, cafetire, tea bags, oil etc.) The courtyard is fully enclosed meaning your dog can explore without worry of them escaping. The hot tub was a real highlight, as well as the lovely courtyard area. We will definitely be back next time we visit Cornwall. Thank you for such a pleasant stay. Hide

What a wonderful find. Such a beautiful little cottage tucked away from the outside world but only 20 minutes from so many places to visit. The cottage itself is stunning and so cosy beautifully decorated and clean. We arrived to find fresh flowers, afternoon tea, treats for the dogs and more. The bed is super comfortable I cant remember the last Read moretime I slept so well. Outside is a fully enclosed garden so the dogs could run around and a hot tub which was lovely to sit in at the end of the day. We cant wait to go back hopefully at the end of the summer. Thank you to our wonderful hosts for making a place so special. Hide

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at the Calf House and would highly recommend it. A lot of love has gone into creating this space, with real attention to detail throughout. The layout is fantastic with a large open-plan area combining the kitchen, dining, and living/TV space, making the property feel incredibly spacious, while the separate Read morebedroom still offers plenty of privacy. The place also appears to have been recently renovated, and all of the appliances worked perfectly during our stay. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches from the hosts, such as milk, tea, and other essentials, which made us feel very welcome. The bathroom is a little oasis, featuring a large tropical-style shower, and the outdoor jacuzzi was the perfect way to relax after a long coastal walk. The gated outdoor area was another highlight, giving us privacy and allowing our dogs to roam freely and safely. The only minor downside was that we needed to drive to reach nearby towns and pubs, as the road outside is quite busy for walking. However, this didnt take away from what was otherwise an excellent stay. We would absolutely return if we find ourselves back in Cornwall. Hide
