You couldn't ask for a better location for this seaside eco-lodge retreat. Nestled within peaceful farmlands, you'll find five of north Cornwall's most popular sandy beaches within five miles of your door – starting with Mawgan Porth, just a twenty-minute stroll away. Follow the woodland path down to the local beach for sandcastle-making, picnics, and, if you time the tide right, surfing – there's a surf school with all the gear. Take a jaunt over to Padstow a twenty-minute drive away and mooch about the shops. Or just hang out back at the farm for the day. Kids will love feeding the chickens and the resident pony. At nightfall, cuddle up under the night sky and catch a shooting star. Located within the Carnewas and Bedruthan Steps dark sky area, stargazing doesn't get much better. When it's finally time to retreat indoors, the lofty gabled roof, floor-to-ceiling windows, and pristine interiors make quite the first impression. Cuddle up beside the wood burner fire for movie nights – the underfloor heating powered by renewal energy keeps things toasty. Or book in a private chef for a slap-up meal – your host knows just the person for the job.

Host
This home is managed by Lucy
This home is managed directly by its owner who will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Your hosts bought this very Cornish farm in 2003, after previously being hoteliers for many years in the Newquay area. And it’s been a labour of love ever since, renovating the existing farm buildings into award-winning holiday cottages they’d love to share with you.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
