The Detail...

Stay just 500 metres from Newquay’s beautiful Watergate Bay at Watersend House. This gorgeous seaside getaway offers stunning views across the sea in one of Cornwall’s most majestic locations.

Sleeping up to 12 guests, this property is perfect for a trip away with a group of family or friends. On the ground floor the large south-facing lounge is the social hub of the holiday home, complete with large comfy sofas and a wood burner for those cosy winter nights. There is also a TV and DVD player, BOSE sound system, and WiFi throughout. The fully equipped kitchen/diner comes complete with a double electric oven and AGA, making catering easy even if there are big numbers. There is another wood burner in the dining room, along with a table that seats up to 12 people.

The dining space flows neatly into the conservatory, which enjoys sun all throughout the day. Also on this level is a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom - which is the perfect option for anyone staying with limited mobility.

Heading upstairs leads to a further four bedrooms. The master suite boasts sea views, as does the double bedroom with bunk beds that is the ideal setup for a small family. There is another double bedroom and a twin room on this level, as well as the modern family bathroom with a tub and separate shower.

Watersend House is set in an acre of private gardens, making the outside space just as impressive as the interior. Guests step out from the conservatory and onto a large wooden deck with plenty of seating. Then for that added touch of luxury there is a hot tub sitting in the garden meaning you can hop in for a soak after a day out exploring the Cornish coast.

Of course those staying only need take a short walk and there are on one of the many beautiful beaches in North Cornwall. Whether it’s surfing, coastal walking, or just lying back and sunbathing, it’s all there. Alternatively, nearby is the picturesque town of Padstow with its independent shops and award-winning restaurants, as well as the famous Eden Project.
