3 Bedroom Cottage in St. Merryn

Quirky and full of character, this handsome holiday home invites families and friends to Cornwall’s north coast, just a short walk from the beautiful beach at Porthcothan. Less than 1 mile from this pristine sandy shoreline, the property is also perfectly placed for exploring the South West Coast Path – a never-ending route for hikers and bikers eager to experience the beauty of Cornwall’s dramatic coastline. Follow the trail up to Trevose Head (2.5 miles) to explore the ‘Seven Bays for Seven Days’, choosing a new sandy cove to enjoy each day of your stay. Nearby St Merryn (1.5 miles) is well known for its excellent gastro pubs, while Padstow (4.5 miles) offers a vibrant foodie scene. Families will appreciate the proximity to Camel Creek Family Adventure Park (5 miles) and the Royal Cornwall Showground (8.5 miles), which hosts regular events and markets.

This charming, rural property has been modernised with an art deco twist, pairing rich pops of colour with antique-style furnishings to complement the original features of this historic cottage. Step inside and head first to the farmhouse-style kitchen, a sociable central hub with a breakfast table ideal for casual meals and conversation. From here, a doorway leads to the spacious lounge/diner, where a dining table awaits more formal mealtimes. Cosy sofas are positioned around a Smart TV, creating a welcoming space to relax when evening draws in. Returning to the kitchen, a single step leads to the master bedroom, a delightful king-size set within earshot of the kids’ room. From the kitchen follow the adjacent hallway to reach the children’s bedroom – a playroom-inspired space with a single bed, a mid-sleeper bunk bed, plenty of toys and room to play. The final bedroom, an appealing double, is located upstairs alongside the family bathroom, which features an electric shower over the bath.


Let younger guests and four-pawed pals blow off steam in the enclosed garden – a delightful grassy space that’s fully secure. The furnished garden invites you to step outside and enjoy a sundowner after a day of adventure. Private parking for two cars is also provided.
