We had a fantastic stay. A very well equipped property which was very clean on arrival. The hot tub was a great bonus in a lovely garden. Great location on the north Cornish coast with lovely walks and beaches within a short drive. It is possible to walk to Porthtowan beach in about 15 minutes but it is a very steep walk back.
