Whisk the whole family away to this spacious eco-designed property on the outskirts of Wadebridge. On a fine weekend grab your bikes and explore the scenic Camel Trail nearby and when your legs are in need of a rest, return to a bubbly hot tub and chink glasses as the sun sets over the estuary with the mouthwatering scent of a chargrilled feast wafting from the BBQ.
Inside The Hawthorns, the decor is stylish and modern, yet not without rural charm. The open-plan layout retains a light and airy feel, but when the wood burner is lit on a crisp winter evening, the flickering flames reflect the interior's warm colour palette. Perfect for large family gatherings, the lavish dining area provides the perfect setting for a celebratory meal with a backdrop of Cornish countryside through the French doors. Swing these doors open and step out onto the balcony for a sundowner as the day draws to an end.
For those seeking a great shopping experience, head to the cathedral city of Truro (24 miles), while beach lovers are sure to love the sweeping stretches of sand at Rock (7 miles) and Polzeath (8 miles). Follow in the footsteps of Doc Martin and visit the traditional fishing village of Port Isaac (10 miles) where the TV series was filmed for its picturesque winding streets lined with whitewashed cottages, or sample some freshly caught fish at one of the seafood restaurants in Padstow (8 miles).
