About this property

Perfectly located for beach and coastal walking holidays, this family-friendly terraced cottage of Rockpool is situated in Harlyn near St Merryn, a short and level walk from Harlyn Bay beach, a wide and spacious sandy beach that is considered one of the finest in Cornwall. Tucked away on the eastern side of Trevose Head the cottage is located just west of Padstow which is 2.8 miles by road and even closer along the South Western Coastal Path or footpaths. The cottage has been furnished with style in mind, which you will notice as you enter the sitting room, a space sporting sleek furnishings throughout, including velvet sofas, as well as charming coastal touches; sink into one of the sofas and enjoy a family-favourite DVD on the TV. Nearby rests the fabulous conservatory, where wicker seating allows you to soak up the natural light as you unwind with your favourite beverage. When you’re feeling peckish, continue to the brand new kitchen/diner, a space enjoying sleek, white units with a range of newly integrated appliances, such as a built-in microwave! Once the designated chef of the group has whipped up a culinary delight here, enjoy it at the six-seater dining table as you catch up on the day’s adventures. Head upstairs to find three well-appointed bedrooms, two of which are doubles that enjoy blue hues and ample storage throughout, and the latter room offering a bunk bed; ideal for kids! The contemporary bathroom is nearby and enjoys sleek tiling throughout, as well as a bath with an overhead shower. The property also boasts its own enclosed garden, where you fix up grilled delights on the barbecue for all to enjoy at the picnic bench. When it comes to dining out you have a wide choice to suit everyone, including the friendly pubs of The Well Parc Hotel and The Doghouse; there is also a beach shop here for all your beach requirements as well as surf hire and surf school facilities. Just a mile away is the village of St Merryn, which is home to Rick Stein's pub, The Cornish Arms offering classic seafood as well as pub food classics. Padstow also isn’t far and offers plenty to do, including catching the ferry to Rock, touring the fascinating National Lobster Hatchery, and visiting the iconic manor of Prideaux Place. With a variety of beaches and beautiful bays close by, either by the stunning coastal path or a short drive there will always be so many places to enjoy and explore. Rockpool is a delightful cottage in a great location to be enjoyed all-year-round.

Harlyn Bay is considered to be one of the best family beaches in Cornwall with a large sandy beach, safe for swimming and surfing all year round. Constantine Bay just two miles away offers golf at the Trevose Championship course. Nearby Padstow lies at the head of the Camel Trail along the Camel Estuary and local cycle hire shops enable visitors to enjoy the area easily. Padstow is a delightful fishing port offering ample opportunity to taste locally sourced produce, as well as the award-winning Camel Valley wines, in celebrity owned establishments.

    The property is extremely lovely to stay in and only a couple of miles from Padstow and other lovely beaches. The owner has thought of everything for comfort in this well equipped cottage. We look forward to staying here again.

  • Christine

    It is a really lovely, clean house with great facilities. It's also a perfect location for the beach (3 minute walk!), and for exploring the local area. As well as being really well presented with really modern appliances, it has absolutely everything you could need for a young family - probably the best kitted out home we have ever stayed in. Additionally the owner, Elizabeth, was so helpful and gave us loads of local recommendations for things to do / where to eat. Thanks for such a great week!

    What is not to love, its cosy and comfortable, spotlessly clean and well stocked for self catering. Proximity to the beach is a big plus, and this leads onto lovely coastal paths which we used many times. I cannot recommend this property enough, it really is a little gem.
