Salty Sea Dog

About this property

Tintagel 1.9 miles. This delightfully presented ground-floor apartment, Salty Sea Dog, rests just paces away from the beach, in a beautiful, converted period property. Simply ideal for a family of four looking for a beach-based holiday in a stunning region of Cornwall. Light and airy with a lovely contemporary coastal feel which flows seamlessly throughout, large sash windows overlook the Strand, so there is no forgetting that you are merely a stone’s throw from the beach. Relax around the lovely rustic dining table and tuck into the delicious cream tea awaiting you. Wood floors and feature wall panels bring stylish warmth to the inviting living room. While you are waiting for the tide to go out, relax on the sofa with a good book, or gather round the table for games. Silver grey glossy kitchen units create a wonderfully bright space, where rustling up delicious meals for your family will be a pleasure. The double bedroom has been thoughtfully designed so you can relax in style, with restful nautical blue and white hues. The bunk room is a quirky, quiet space where the kids will love to hide away. Wake up to a refreshing shower in the blue and white glossy shower room each morning, before stretching your legs along the coast path and topping up your lungs with fresh salty air. Complimentary toiletries are provided, along with a hair dryer. Spend sunny days lunching on the patio; the large enclosed outdoor space is perfect for soaking up the coastal atmosphere with a chilled drink and exceptional view of the ocean and Gull Rock. Stroll up the cliff path to the Port William bar and restaurant, for supper with an amazing view. Trebarwith's sandy beach is just moments away and is perfect for exploring the rock pools and caves. Or perhaps catch a lesson with the local surf school, and then go catch some waves. The coastal path winds its way into Tintagel. You will be rewarded with dramatic sea views on the way, and the fantastic King Arthur's castle on the headland. Wander further into the village for refreshment and a visit to the National Trust's historic Old Post Office. A short drive away is the charming village of Boscastle with its characterful harbour, cafes and pottery. Or visit pretty Port Isaac and marvel at the picturesque harbour, and maybe catch a glimpse of 'Doc Martin' in action! Venture inland and explore beautiful, wild Bodmin Moor with its tors, lakes and ponies. Salty Sea Dog is a charm-filled getaway in the heart of Cornwall!

As the site of King Arthur's Castle, whose ruins dominate the cliffside just outside the village, Tintagel is a popular but not overcrowded tourist destination. The area is surrounded by the sea, rocky coves, and beautiful scenery. Those who enjoy the water can go surfing at any of the nearby beaches, including Trebarwith Strand and Bossiney Cove. The Old Post Office (National Trust) is a must-see among Tintagel's many restaurants and pubs. The energetic can take a hike along the SW Coast Path, which passes through the village and winds its way along the cliffs and down to the water's edge through dramatic countryside in both directions. Just 2.5 miles north along the path you'll find the picturesque fishing village of Boscastle, complete with its own quay and a selection of cosy local watering holes. Newquay and Bude, both popular surfing destinations, are about an hour's drive away; they also offer resort amenities. Bodmin Moor, the Eden Project, Padstow, the Camel Estuary, and Port Isaac are all within a similar driving distance.
