An incredible Grade II-listed building in an idyllic village setting 10 miles from Newquay, one of Cornwall’s most popular beaches. Featuring an astonishing open-plan kitchen/diner, a mezzanine lounge and a patio garden, this dog-friendly property is the perfect bolthole for small families or pairs of couples seeking a relaxing holiday close to Cornwall’s Seven Bays.
This unique property is the village’s former Methodist chapel and Sunday School, and dates all the way back to the 1820s. Age forms part of the property’s appeal and it has been thoughtfully converted to include contemporary furnishings while also retaining many of its original features, including high-level arched windows and slate-hung facade. Prepare to be dog gone in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a really sociable space to enjoy good company over indulgent meals and refreshments. A double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a family shower room are only a few paw prints away. The mezzanine lounge upstairs is a great place to unwind while the dogs snooze by the wood burner, while outside, the patio garden invites morning coffees, BBQ suppers and nightcaps.
Rumford is a haven for nature lovers, with breathtaking sights aplenty from the footpaths scattered across the village. North Cornwall is littered with dog-friendly beaches, while its famous Seven Bays, including Porthcothan Bay (4 miles), are within easy reach. Padstow (4 miles), a must for fans of seafood, is brimming with dog-friendly cafes and pubs serving the day’s catch, while Newquay (10 miles) is a haven for water sports lovers and dog walkers.
