Distant sea views and coastal walks await at this charming Cornish cottage

Hillscroft, Treknow welcomes you in with a practical kitchen, well equipped for whipping up hearty meals after a day spent exploring the coast. The open-plan living space flows into a light-filled dining area, where lovely views across the valley set the scene for relaxed family meals and lazy breakfasts. An additional separate living room with Smart TV offers a cosy retreat for film nights, while a handy downstairs shower room adds everyday convenience for sandy feet and muddy boots returning from the beach.

Step through the French doors onto the tiered garden, where raised decking and a pretty patio invite you to relax on the corner sofa or stretch out on sun loungers beneath distant sea views. Upstairs, three bright, coastal-themed bedrooms await: a king-size room, a double with en-suite shower, and a twin room with its own en-suite, perfect for families or groups of up to six. On-road parking for three cars makes arriving with bikes, boards, and beach gear effortless.

Picture mornings spent on the patio, coffee in hand, watching the light shift over distant sea views before heading down the lane to Trebarwith Strand for a bracing dip or a spot of surfing. Afternoons might mean coastal path rambles with the dogs, exploring rock pools, or simply relaxing in the tiered garden as the sun dips low. Evenings call for a family barbecue on the decking, swapping stories of the day's adventures as the sky turns gold and pink.

Hillscroft, Treknow sits in a quiet corner of this north Cornwall village, just a short stroll from Trebarwith Strand and within easy reach of some of the region's best-loved attractions. Tintagel Castle (2 km) is close enough for an afternoon exploring its legendary clifftop ruins and Arthurian history, complete with dramatic coastal views from the footbridge. Jamaica Inn in Bolventor (16 km) offers a fascinating glimpse into Cornwall's smuggling past, alongside charming accommodation and hearty dining on Bodmin Moor. Bodmin Jail (19 km) brings Georgian and Victorian crime and punishment vividly to life through guided heritage tours and immersive exhibitions, while the Eden Project (32 km) delights visitors of all ages with its extraordinary biomes and thought-provoking exploration of plants and people.

Venture a little further afield and you'll find even more of the South West's family-friendly attractions. The Milky Way Adventure Park in Clovelly (45 km) combines thrilling indoor and outdoor rides with shows and a Bird of Prey Centre for a fun-filled day out. Healeys Cornish Cyder Farm in Penhallow (46 km) invites you to discover traditional cider-making through guided tours, vintage tractor rides, and plenty of tasty samples. Blue Reef Aquarium in Newquay (49 km) rounds things off nicely, with its mesmerising underwater tunnels and diverse marine life providing an engaging day trip for all ages.

Closer to home, the picturesque fishing village of Port Isaac is just 12 kilometres away, its harbour and traditional cottages instantly recognisable as the backdrop to television's Doc Martin. Bude, a thriving seaside resort famed for its award-winning beaches, is a 32-kilometre drive away, perfect for a day of rockpooling, surfing, or simply strolling along the vast sandy shoreline.
