Just half a mile from pet-friendly Porthcothan Beach, this super-chic property is every salty sea dog’s dream. Boasting a beautiful social space and a bathroom for each of its bedrooms, the bungalow delivers on all levels, while its well-maintained garden and wood burner add all-weather appeal.
With scenic countryside and coastal walks on the doorstep, this high-end holiday home will suit any pet-loving party of six. Laid-back down-time is assured – natural light pours through the large windows and French doors in the open-plan social space, framing views of the sea and surrounding landscape. In the lounge area, a suspended wood burner will warm paws and add ambience as you stream favourite movies on the Smart TV. Sing for your supper as dinner cooks –an upright piano is set to one side of the spacious kitchen/diner, accessed via three steps from the lounge. Once everyone’s dog-tired, three bedrooms beckon: two super-king-size rooms each have an en-suite shower room, while the twin room can claim exclusive use of a stunning bathroom. Lap up the sea views as the dogs let off steam in the enclosed garden; a raised terraced area makes the ideal space for al fresco dining and sundowners.
Nine miles north of Newquay and less than 6 miles from Padstow, the grassy dunes, coves and golden sands of Porthcothan Beach are perfect for walkies and watersports. Follow the South West Coast Path and you can soak up spectacular views – Constantine Bay, one of Cornwall’s best sites for surfing and sunset picnics is 2.5 miles away and en-route to Trevose Head (4 miles). The dogs will go mutts for a mooch around foodie-favourite Padstow (less than 5 miles) – let them sniff out the harbour then join the Camel Trail for further tail-wagging wanders.
