The cottage comfortably sleeps four guests in two bedrooms.The bedrooms have just been renovated to expose stone and cob walls and a delightful ancient fireplace in the main bedroom Its character features, wood burning stove and quiet location make it an ideal romantic retreat for couples, including those who want to bring their dog away with them.Perfect for families in the school holidays as well. Two pubs, two restaurants and a general store/Post Office compliment the village. Cubert is well located with easy access to Crantock beach, Polly Joke and Holywell Bay. The attractions of the Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, Lands End are easily reached by car as are the famous fishing villages up and down the coast. The surf capital of Britain, Newquay, is only five miles away with its world famous facilities. Cubert however is more suited to those seeking a more tranquil family holiday with very pretty walks to the beaches including Polly Joke which has recently been voted one of Britain’s best secret beaches. Locally there are two pubs in the village including the picturesque Smugglers Den Inn, a delightful 16th Century Thatched Inn a restaurant and organic bakery. . The Three local beaches are all within walkable distance of the cottage. Holywell Bay and Crantock Beach offer vast sandy bays with dunes, rock pools and caves to explore. In between is the gem that is Polly Joke, a gloriously natural beach surrounded by nothing more than National Trust headlands with a beautiful rugged coastline. For walkers, join the South West coastal path which meanders through the three local beaches before rising up the magnificent headlands on its spectacular journey on this section of the coast. Good shore fishing locally, with charter boats available at Newquay.

travel down was good, I arrived in time to visit crantock beach. could not find a path off the road which is challenging with a dog and cars but we managed. took a cliff hike to porth joke beach, just in time for storm Dave. wet and windy first evening. the property is cosy and warm, located in the middle of a small village. did not have time to explore the village much. found the village store friendly and most places accommodated me with dog. would come back to explore again.

We stayed in March and used the fire stove in living room. \Nice that it was laid already.

Loved the inside of the cottage, beautifully renovated !!!!!... Super location, near to beautiful dog friendly beaches and great to have a dog exercise village field opposite the cottage and an enclosed garden. Our only real problem (not the owner's fault) was when we arrived the boiler was not working so we had no heat or hot water. It took three engineers on three different days to sort the problem. We were able to light the wood burner for heat in the evening but not hot water. Owner very helpful and has given us a partial refund immediately. The steps up (and crucially down) from back door into kitchen are quite steep and when wet slippery. The dog had a crashing fall and so did one of the engineers who came to fix the boiler. Good village shop. Other amenities closed but as Februarly not surprising.
