Discover unforgettable views of rolling green hills and the Cornish coast when you stay at this stylish bungalow in South Cornwall. Groups of up to six people and two pups can spend their days bounding along the sandy beaches of Gorran Haven, tucking into mouthwatering bags of fish and chips from the local village takeaway, or walking along the magnificent clifftops nearby.

Your excitable dog will instantly feel at home as they leap into the bright and spacious entrance hall. From here, follow your cheeky pup into the chic kitchen, which has everything your group will need to whip up a scrumptious feast during your stay. The open-plan lounge/diner offers a sociable dining table for mealtimes as well as comfy sofas for your humans to sink into and stretch their legs. During the summer months, why not pop open a bottle of bubbly, fill a bowl with crunchy dog treats and head outdoors into the beautiful garden? This wonderful space is completely enclosed and private with several seating areas and a BBQ, perfect for guests who love nothing more than a spot of al fresco dining. When it’s time to hit the hay, choose from one of three bedrooms to rest your head: a double bedroom with an en-suite WC, a king-size bedroom and a twin.

Gorran Haven’s sandy beach is just 400 metres from the property’s doorstep and welcomes pups all year round.

We love this location and the bungalow was perfect for us in being a short walk to the beach with an enclosed garden for the dogs. Comfy beds and quiet, lots of space for everyone . Great choice of dog friendly places to eat nearby such as The Barley Sheaf in Gorran, The Crown at St Ewe plus the Harbour catch at Mevagissey.

Silverdale was a light and airy well equipped property. The view from the upper patio area was lovely. The lower patio was a lovely sun trap and great for a barbeque. Gorran Haven is a lovely little cornish village and the people were very friendly. It is centrally located for many attractions and would we definitely return to Silverdale.
