Embrace all romantic endeavours when staying in this stunning seafront property, bringing along man’s best friend to enjoy a real pet-friendly stay packed with dog walks aplenty. The views from this place are unforgettable, best enjoyed whilst sat in the private garden with a morning coffee or evening sundowner – let Rover sniff around the lawn whilst you plot your day’s plans or reminisce on adventures just passed. The accommodation is a traditional Cornish chalet that’s lauded for its spectacular views, laid out with enough space to host two guests and two dogs in superb comfort.

Despite being a one-bedroom property that’s best suited to couples, an additional double bed in the open-plan living area invites two additional guests to stay, as needed. This sociable, wide-open space is home to the lounge, kitchen and diner, all with double-aspect picture windows offering cliffside views and French doors to access the enclosed, private garden. When staying in the winter months, people and pets alike will find the cosiest spot to curl up by the wood burner indoors, humans merrily watching the TV whilst furry friends drift off and dream of capturing Cornish wildlife. You can also leave your pet to nap in here as you venture to bed, finding a king-size bedroom with an additional TV just next door.

Situated in an often-overlooked part of Cornwall’s Heritage Coast, there are undisturbed beaches and endless fantastic walking routes to be discovered within moments of this abode. With your pets on their leads, step out and follow the South West Coast Path (100 metres) down to Tregonhawke Beach. This 3-mile stretch of sand is scenic and always pet friendly, ideal for letting Fido off his leash for endless games of fetch, chasing sticks and bounding into the choppy sea.

The view is absolutely amazing and immediately sold the property to us. We saw a couple of reviews about access from the car space to the chalet down a long path so asked how we would cope. One of us is not great on legs and found the walk down and back very strenuous and challenging, particularly going down with mobility issues. It's roughly 40Read more0 yards of tarmacked finish but some gradients are circa 60 degrees. Because of this we're afraid we won't be able to stay again, however, it's great for younger more agile people looking for peace and quiet and amazing beach below. Hide
