A beautiful barn conversion, just a 1-mile walk from the golden beach at Porthcothan Bay, sleeps six guests, along with one canine companion. Ideal for a family or group of friends, it is within 2 miles of shops and excellent eating spots in the village of St Merryn. Porthcothan, where dogs can romp free throughout the year, is one of several glorious family beaches on this outstanding stretch of the North Cornwall coast. There are a wealth of wonderful clifftop and country walks on the doorstep, and the picturesque fishing port of Padstow is 5 miles away.


This thoughtfully designed holiday home is a lovely place to relax after a day of sun, sea and sand. The spacious lounge has comfortable seating, and the country-style kitchen/diner has a feature slate floor. Upstairs are two inviting bedrooms, each with an en-suite shower room. They comprise a king-size and a spacious family room. This houses two single zip-and-link beds, which can form a super-king-size, together with bunk beds. Outside is a small, paved patio with garden furniture. Available from Easter 2025, will be access to a shared enclosed garden space located just across the lane. Other properties on this site can be booked together for families or friends who want to share a holiday together.


The semi-detached barn is close to a holiday park, with a shop, a bar serving food and a children’s play area which guests can use during the summer season. Listen to live music in the garden of a traditional pub in Porthcothan overlooking the bay. The coast path from Porthcothan to Treyarnon Bay also has spectacular views. For a different perspective of this magnificent landscape, take a boat trip from colourful Padstow harbour along the North Cornwall coastline. Enjoy a meal at one of the town’s renowned seafood restaurants or tuck into pub grub at the Rick Stein-owned Cornish Arms in St Merryn.
