It’s not every day you get to sleep under a thatched roof, and this magical 18th-century property is bound to impress history lovers. It’s located in a sweet hamlet 1.5 miles from the sea at Holywell Bay, known for its surfing and dramatic cliffs. Spend your days following your excited dogs on walks along the South West Coast Path (1.5 miles), then lay your head in your blissful holiday home brimming with charm and rustic features.

You’ll be impressed by the picture-perfect appearance of this Grade II-listed accommodation, with its raw stonework and dainty mullion windows. The open-plan lounge/diner is a glorious place to relax with fellow guests, with its exposed beams and charming window seats. In the hand-built kitchen, sizzle up cooked breakfasts as you admire the farmhouse style of this stylish space. From the tasteful rugs to the cheerful bathroom tiles, every little detail has been thoughtfully added to bring out the cottage’s alluring character. And if it’s fine weather, take a glass outside to enjoy in the small enclosed courtyard garden, furnished with a bench and table so you can delight in a serene moment in the fresh air.

You’ll have a choice of wonderful sandy locations nearby, from the golden dunes of Crantock Bay (1.5 miles) to the vibrant beach bar at Perranporth (5 miles). Cubert Common offers (3 miles) offers scenic walks across open grassland peppered with rare flowers like primrose, cowslips and squill – listen out for skylarks chattering overhead. At the River Gannel (3.5 miles), spend afternoons stand-up paddleboarding or taking leisurely waterside walks.
