The ever changing, unobstructed view of the beach from the garden patio and sitting room sold this house to us! It is something of which we will never tire and when we are older and less active, will just sit and look at it.
The house isn't bad either! Every bedroom having its' own ensuite bathroom is really useful and enough space that you can find a place, inside or out, on your own for a while with a book.
To have a sandy beach at the bottom of the garden and surfing at Fistral 200M from the front door, is to us, the ultimate British beach holiday. We knew of Newquay and National Trust Crantock before looking at the house but not Pentire which is a small peninsula between the 2. Thank goodness we found it !
Pentire is a hidden gem, with an extensive clifftop heathland, stunning walks and views and a residential area. There is something to do in the area for every member of our family, whatever the weather and the children do not need to be driven. Nobody is ever bored.
We enjoy having a whole host of different eateries and excellent restaurants to be able to walk to, most of them dog friendly. If we don't want to walk home, 123 Taxis charge us a very reasonable +/-£7 from anywhere in the area.
Newquay is a mile away if we want it for surf shops, supermarkets, the cinema or station but with food deliveries we can spend a week at the house without going in to it
