About this property
A delightful stone-built cottage, perfectly positioned just outside the charming village of Crantock, near the vibrant coastal town of Newquay. Offering a peaceful countryside setting, this welcoming property provides an ideal base for exploring one of Cornwall’s most sought-after areas.
Upstairs, the cottage features two comfortable bedrooms—a double and a spacious family room with three beds - one super king-size double (zip/link, can be twin on request) and one single.—alongside a bathroom where you can unwind with a relaxing soak after a day of adventure. Downstairs, a well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare hearty breakfasts or pack picnics for days out, while the cosy sitting room with a dining area invites you to relax and share meals together.
Step outside onto the sunny private patio, a perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening drink while taking in the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside.
Crantock itself is a picturesque coastal village steeped in charm, known for its traditional thatched cottages, friendly village pubs, and scenic surroundings. Just a short distance away lies the beautiful Crantock Beach, backed by rolling sand dunes and the Gannel Estuary—ideal for surfing, paddleboarding, or peaceful walks with stunning views. The South West Coast Path runs close by, offering spectacular clifftop routes and opportunities to spot wildlife.
For those seeking more activity, the lively town of Newquay is within easy reach, boasting popular attractions such as Fistral Beach, the Blue Reef Aquarium, and a range of shops, restaurants, and cafés. Whether you’re looking for outdoor adventure, coastal relaxation, or simply a quiet retreat, this charming cottage provides the perfect Cornish escape.
Crantock is a small Cornish village set back from the coast close to the popular resort of Newquay. If you want to escape the crowds, yet still be close to the action, this is the place to be. There's stunning countryside all around and lots of pretty villages to explore; however, it is the coast that dominates. Enjoy superb walks along the coastal path over dramatic cliff-tops or potter around the idyllic village itself. A great base for a break in Cornwall.

Beautiful conversion, in a Beautiful rural setting. A great base to explore the surrounding areas of Cornwall. Some reviews have mentioned the farm track access as a problem, but we found it a positive, was quite cosy at night getting back after a manic day. We had no problems at all with our phone network, which we did anticipate due to other reviews. We recieved a fine cream tea left for us on arrival by the owners, which was lovely after such a long drive. We wouldnât hesitate to book again in the future, and will definitely recommend to friends and family. Credit to the owners.
