Nestled at the centre of a sleepy North Cornwall village, this single-storey sanctuary is cool, calm and contemporary, just moments from an iconic coastal retreat, perfect for families and couples seeking a seaside break.

Admire far-reaching views across the garden out to the sea in the light and bright open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, sweeping from the front to the rear of the cottage, creating the perfect relaxing space to socialise all evening long. Refuel around the compact dining table or breakfast bar in the well-equipped kitchen area after a hike along the South West Coast Path. Snuggle up before bed on the comfortable sofas and catch up with your favourite programme on the Smart TV. After planning tomorrow’s coastal adventure, retreat to either of the well-presented en-suite bedrooms. Invite the outside in and soak up the spectacular surrounding rolling hillsides and fields by throwing open the patio doors and gathering on the raised patio area to dine alfresco or catch some beautiful sunsets. The shared lawn below the patio is the perfect space for exercising your four-pawed pal and for children to let off some steam before bed.

The small countryside village of Kilkhampton lies astride the Atlantic Highway, just 6 miles away from the neighbouring coastal retreat of Bude, repeatedly named the Best UK Coastal Town. This town offers romantic walks along the wild coastline, fun-filled family activities and sandy stretches aplenty perfect for children and four-pawed pals. Join the South West Coast Path on foot or two wheels to journey alongside the rugged coastline, soaking up the rich geology of Bude's unique rock formations. Pack a picnic and explore the breathtaking fishing village of Boscastle (19 miles) or hop over the border to Devon’s Clovelly (11.5 miles), a privately owned harbour village unlike anywhere else in the country.
