  • Within walking distance of the sprawling South West Coast Path and a scattering of sandy beaches

Property code: OC-P00464

Steal away to experience a stay in the fantastic Seven Bays area of the Cornish coast, calling this single-storey property your own and appreciating close proximity to all of the offerings of St Merryn. Prepare to visit a beach a day when spending time in the pretty village of St Merryn as the town has as many as seven beautiful beaches within 4 miles including the dog-friendly sands of Porthcothan Bay (2.5 miles) and the surfers’ paradise of Constantine Bay (4 miles). Close by lies the foodie-favourite town of Padstow (3 miles), a spot where multiple TV chefs boast their very own restaurants. You'll need to get stuck into adventure to work up that appetite and a mosey along the South West Coast Path (1.5 miles) is sure to do just that. Alternatively, keep children entertained with an afternoon at the Camel Creek Theme Park (5 miles) or in the bustling town of Newquay (10 miles).

This property is well thought out and offers a lovely space for you to relax on your hard-earned holiday. Step inside to find an instantly welcoming lounge space with dual-aspect windows and comfortable seating solutions. A flame-effect gas fire will cast a warm glow over your space on cold winter evenings, ideal for those nights where all you want to do is curl up. Follow the property through to an extremely spacious kitchen/diner, complete with additional seating for keeping the cook company, and more than enough countertop space for making meal prep easy. Along the hallway is a bathroom in which you can have a soak. Both bedrooms are also here on the ground floor, the first of which is made up as a double and the second a zip-and-link super-king-size/twin bed.

There’ll be no need to hide away inside when the sun shines, this property presents a generous allocation of garden and patio space to be enjoyed, complete with garden furniture and shed for you to store bikes and surfboards. Let pets and children play on the lawn as you prepare dinner alfresco.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 double and 1 super-king-size zip-and-link that can be made into twins (please request on booking)

Great location for our holiday as we are near to the various places that we like to go to. The area is quiet, which is a great bonus for us.

Lovely 2 bed bungalow in a very quiet area, which was great, we stayed in November and had a nice relaxed week with not a drop of rain in sight all week, weather was cold but not so cold you had to be all wrapped up like a snowman, actually the sun was out on most days so not so bad, dog loved it anyway. Bungalow has everything you need, home from Read morehome really, except the bed which I found too soft but then I have a really hard bed at home so not really a complaint just an observation. Hide

Gull cottage is a comfortable, well equipped bungalow with a dog- proof back garden. It is in a very good location, being walking distance to the village & a short drive to sandy beaches & the golf course. We had a great holiday & plan to be back soon. Thank you!

Whilst comfortable and clean, some areas could do with painting such as the skirtings, there are several carpet threads which look unsightly. No sharp knives or scissors.
