Property code: OC-PC007

Located at the top of the village of Polruan with its breathtaking coastline, this four-bedroom property is perfect for families, including four-legged members, seeking a spacious, contemporary base from which to explore the Cornish coastline. Stroll to the quay for a drink in the dog-friendly village pub or to pick up a treat from the bakery. Take the passenger ferry across to Fowey for walks along the headland or along the South West Coast Path.

Stepping inside your holiday home, there is plenty of space to hang up leads and coats, as well as to clean up muddy paws. Your open-plan kitchen/diner is a bright and airy sociable space to linger over delicious dinners and share the highlights of your day. Sink into one of the plump sofas in the living room and watch the ever-changing sea through the French doors as your hound stretches out on the rug. When it’s time for bed, there are four bright and inviting bedrooms: a ground-floor double room with en-suite shower, then a master king-size bedroom with en-suite shower and balcony with sea views, a second double room, and a pretty twin room, all on the first floor. There is also a family bathroom. To the rear of the property is a spacious decked area for BBQs and al fresco dining.

There are plenty of walks from the doorstep of your coastal cottage. Take the lead along the coastal path to Lansallos Beach (4 miles) where your hound is allowed all year round. Venture further along the coastal path to Polperro (6 miles) to explore this quaint fishing village and enjoy a local ale in one of the dog-friendly pubs. Or discover plants from around the globe at the Eden Project (16 miles), with your canine companion at your side.

A lovely 'home from home' feel to the property. Very well equipped kitchen. Lots of games and books provided which was a lovely touch. Comfortable beds and great views from the balcony. Loved the fluffy towels which were proper bath sheet size. We were 3 generations and a dog who all had a lovely holiday!

We had a lovely stay at this well equipped house, which had everything you could wish for. The walk up from the passenger ferry is definitely steep, so a reasonable level of fitness helps, but even our 4 year old managed it without a single complaint, which says a lot! A rewarding climb with a great place waiting at the top.

The property was nice enough but literally right next door to a building site with vans etc blocking the sea view wed paid a premium price for, plus noise and disturbance of workmen going up and down the side. Also neighbours car partially blocking the drive on occasions. Not dirty in anyway but it didnt have a freshly cleaned odour. 6pm check in iRead mores very late. Stickers telling you what to put where everywhere so felt very regimented and not relaxing when you fear putting a fork back in the wrong spot. Heating was temperamental. Low hanging lights with glass shades were dangerous. A large number of family photos were a little off putting for us. Remote location and village shop was closed on our arrival (didnt open until our 4th day) and as no welcome pack of even a pint of milk offered, go prepared or expect a journey for supplies. For the premium priced property, wouldnt go back. Hide

Excellent location if you are a nervous driver Roads are very narrow on drive in.

Excellent on comfort and cleanliness. So many lovely places to visit nearby. Hide

Spacious and really well equipped house. Lovely views from the main bedroom. Comfortable beds and really clean inside. It's a long drive through the very small lanes in and out so it's essential potential holidaymakers are aware before booking.

Probably the best place we have ever stayed at, equipped with everything all the little extras just added to our holiday. It was so big and roomy perfect for a large family, and we never felt on top of each other. The house is finished to a top spec, with the lovely beach theme all around, made us feel home from home.

Fabulous holiday with space for us and all three children and their partners/friends. Best equipped kitchen I've experienced in a holiday home. Lots of games to entertain the family. Beautiful location with close proximity to the coast path. Fowey and Lantic Bay made for great days out.
