Turnstones

A remarkable Cornish retreat, this unique abode is perfect for that extended family holiday or Cornish escape with friends. Sleeping eight guests, the four-bedroom contemporary cottage has accessible features, making it an excellent choice if there is a guest in your party with less mobility.

Situated in popular Polzeath, it is just 350 metres from the golden beach, where you can while away summer days, swimming, paddling and picnicking on the sand. This is also one of the UK’s top surfing destinations.

With Daymer Bay 1 mile away and Rock Beach 3 miles away you have spectacular options for exploring rock pools, cooling off in the clear waters or spending time on peaceful golden sands. Head to Tintagel, 14 miles away, to discover the castle where King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table are said to have gathered.

Enter at the ground level via a flight of steps or first-floor level using a flat entrance from the road. At the heart of this impressive hideaway, with its eye-catching interiors and 21st-century eco features, is an expansive, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with vaulted ceilings and banks of windows that frame the amazing views.

Open the glass doors here on fine days so you can enjoy the salty sea air. Gather on the sofas to watch your favourite shows on the Smart TV, play lively holiday games or chat about your day over a bottle of wine.

The chef in your party will savour the high-specification kitchen, with its many exciting accessories. Home-cooked meals can be enjoyed at the table, breakfast bar or out in the sunshine.

Three of your super-king-size bedrooms, all with en-suite shower rooms, are also at this level, together with a separate WC, utility room and shoe and coat storage. One of these bedrooms and its en-suite shower room has been professionally designed for those with limited mobility.
