Nearby

 

If a beach day is your thing, you are spoilt for choice at Sandpiper. A short car journey will take you to any of the local “Seven Bays for Seven Days” for which the area is renowned, just pack your bucket and spade! Harlyn Bay has the long golden sands and gentle breakers perfect for beginner surf lessons, or for the explorers in the party, head to Booby’s Bay at low tide for world-class rockpools. Mother Ivey’s Bay is the best spot to see the lifeboat crashing down its ramp into the ocean on practice days, or spend the day pitched up on the beautiful sand at Constantine, jumping in and out of the ocean and drying off in the dunes. Both Trevone and Treyarnon have tidal pools, perfect for those days when the ocean is a bit rough, or head to the sheltered bay at Porthcothan for a dip at high tide.

Once you have worked up an appetite in the waves, head into Padstow for a refuel where you will find food options around every corner. Keep an eye out for seasonal pop-ups serving everything from Tacos to Burgers, or pop to Padstow Farm Shop for locally reared meat and veg to cook up a storm back at the house. St Merryn village is a five-minute drive away and has a well-stocked shop, bakery, and garage, as well as several pubs and restaurants including Rick Steins pub, The Cornish Arms.
