Gather the whole group together for afternoons by the pool when you book this outstanding holiday home at Trelights. Sleeping 10 guests, the five-bedroom retreat, which is 2 miles from Port Isaac, offers superb indoor social spaces, with a crackling wood burner for autumn and winter days, as well as beautiful gardens, where you can splash during the warmer months.
Return from your excursions to unpack your tasty Cornish produce in the kitchen/diner and pause with a cup of fresh coffee at the breakfast bar. This well-arranged space contains all you need for your self-catering and is conveniently close to the sun-drenched dining room, with its tables and chairs, vaulted ceiling and doors to the patio. Spread out into the two lounges to find a film on one of the Smart TVs. Light the wood burner in one lounge to warm chilly feet after bracing coastal walks. A WC and a utility room are also downstairs. All five bedrooms are on the floor above. Stretch out for the night in one of the three super-king-sizes. Two of these, one with an en-suite bathroom and the other with an en-suite shower room, can also be arranged as twins by prior agreement. There are also two twins, with zip-and-link beds for flexibility, and access to the family shower room. Let the children tumble outside to play, keeping an eye on them at all times because of the pool. Cook on the BBQ, play croquet and swim between April and September. There is ample private parking.
Venture into picture-postcard Port Isaac to take in the superb views. Polzeath Beach, 4 miles away, is ideal for swimming, surfing and picnicking on the sand. Padstow, 15 miles away, is a great town for shopping, dining out and hiring bikes to cycle along the Camel Trail.
