Stone-built and compact, this bijou bungalow in charming Perranzabuloe hamlet is ideal for a couple's break exploring the North Cornish coast. From this dog-friendly property, the walking is extra special. Perranporth's beautiful sandy 3-mile beach is within 4 miles, and southwest along the coast lies the popular walking area of the St Agnes Heritage Coast (‘Poldark Country') whose spectacular coastal scenery inspired Poldark author Winston Graham.
This neatly presented property is end-of-terrace in a group of holiday barns. Inside, you'll notice clever use of space. Your open-plan kitchen/lounge/diner makes everything companionable, so crack open the wine and curl up on the sofa by the cosy electric fire, or share cooking in the well-laid-out kitchen area. Coastal and nautical themed fabrics and artworks, and the comforting solidity of exposed stone walls contrasting with subtle colours make a relaxing haven.
Day trips from Perranzabuloe are varied; popular South West Coast Path walks, Truro 7 miles to the southeast for a cathedral visit followed by shopping and dining, and Newquay with its lively surf culture only 8 miles northwards. You could sample the South Cornish coast at Falmouth 15 miles away, for shopping and dining. Later, stroll along narrow streets or watch the yachts on the sheltered waters of Falmouth Harbour. Locally, there's a shop and pub at Goonhavern within 3 miles, and the pub in Penhallow a mile away offers fine dining.
