Beachcomber (sleeps 9), Holywell Bay

Beachcomber luxury holiday home is perfectly positioned as an ideal coastal destination, the dune-lined Holywell Bay poises on a slice of the iconic north coast of Cornwall where beautiful beaches and a surf-infused culture inspire complete relaxation. Set into the dunes and just a small stroll from the sun-bleached sands and sparkling waters of the bay, Beachcomber is in an idyllic beach retreat for families and friends, where days can be spent paddling the surf and evenings can be enjoyed socialising in style.

Architecturally designed and bursting with features that lend luxury and light to the interior, this lovely home is set over two floors with a fresh and modern decor that compliments the surrounding beachscape. Exuding a sophisticated yet laid-back ease throughout, there are four fantastic bedrooms, two bathrooms (one of which is en suite) and a large open plan living / dining area meaning plenty of airy space for nine guests to languish in.

Magnificent views reaching over the surrounding dunes and out to sea can be enjoyed from three of the bedrooms as well as from the living area, lending an ‘away from it all’ quality to the home; and glass doors flowing out on to a large balcony make it the perfect place for relaxing in the morning sunshine or for fresh air entertaining.

Generously equipped with modern appliances and utensils, the kitchen makes whipping up anything from a cheffy three course meal to a Ploughman’s lunch a cinch, and the hours can then be whiled away immersed in conversation before heading to one of the gorgeous bedrooms for a deliciously deep night’s sleep.

Being so close to the beach and having its own garden means Beachcomber is pretty much perfect for guests who have their four-legged friends in tow, and there’s plenty to keep their owners busy too; with an 18 hole golf course and two pubs nearby as well as the South West Coastal path and the attractions of Newquay also being within easy reach.
