About this property
Seaport Lodge is tucked away in a quiet corner in the hamlet of Trenance on the edge of the village, the house backs onto farmland yet there are sparkling sea views from almost all of the rooms. This stone-built bungalow is spacious and ideal for a family or a group of friends. The living room has a 52 inch Samsung Smart TV and wood burning stove plus comfortable sofas to enjoy the sea views. The kitchen is well equipped and has a dining area perfect for sitting around and planning the next day's adventure. Four bedrooms with one en-suite plus a family bathroom and a utility room. The garden consists of sweeping lawns and sun decks and if the beach hasn't worn them out then there is a children's play area complete with swings and slide (please note children should be supervised). It is a 10 minute walk down hill to Mawgan Porth sandy beach, although longer coming back. Surrounded by cliffs there is always a sheltered spot amongst the rock pools, caves and soft white sand of this lesser known north coast beach. Voted in the Guardian's 50 best European beaches it is has a relaxed vibe and is perfect for little ones. Lifeguarded from April to September there is a good beach hire shop and surf school. There is also a pub/restaurant, cafe, a beach shop and a farm shop just above the beach. Seaport Lodge is within easy reach of other north coast beaches and many scenic attractions that Cornwall has to offer a perfect holiday destination.
Mawgan Porth boasts golden sands set against the dramatic landscape of cliffs and caves, topped with the coastal footpath with spectacular views over the north Cornish shoreline. Get set with nets and buckets to explore rock pools or hire a board and join the surf school for some wet fun, with lifeguards on patrol during the main season. For those that seek a more leisurely escape, enjoy the Spa facilities at The Scarlet Hotel and The Bedruthan Hotel. After any activity, there is refreshment to be had at the beach cafe and restaurant.

Paula
Very comfortable beds and the furniture included sun loungers, which is a must as far as I am concerned. We had a heatwave during our stay so the lined curtains kept the heat out when needed. The kitchen wanted for nothing and the welcome pack was a nice touch. I loved the fact that this property does recycling and all the bags were provided for this This was a great place to relax and the wildlife, in the huge garden, were a joy to photograph. We walked to the Bedruthan Steps along the coastal path which is close to the Lodge, just across the road and down a private road. My only constructive criticism is that the Information pack in the house is out of date. Lots of construction and re naming of properties in Mawgan Porth mean that the walk instructions are confusing. We know Mawgan Porth well so knew where to go. Just an update on the walking instructions is all that is needed. It would be helpful too if the Smart TV could be set up for the free BBC i player, ITVX etc. We were surprised to see a static mobile home in the front garden which luckily was not being used! But was worried for a minute!! We loved Seaport Lodge.

Itâs a very comfortable home to relax in and socialise in with nice views of the sea at the front and surrounded by fields to the rear. Enjoyed our daily strolls to the beach (10 mins away ) and walking the dogs along the footpaths. Made a great base for the family and we would definitely recommend and return. Thank you for the welcome pack which was a nice surprise after our journey down.

Welcome pack of budget scones and only 3 catering pots of jam looked a little skinny for the price paid Otherwise very spacious and comfortable with good access to walks and the beach at mid to low tide, otherwise a slightly longer walk into the village. Large garden was good for the dog as was the fact it is tucked away from the road.
