Introduction
Carousel is a beautifully appointed home in the popular village of St Merryn, a perfect space for a family break. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, this lovely home is spacious and well equipped, offering large open plan living areas, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an enclosed rear garden. The location also benefits from a lovely children’s play area for the exclusive use of the residents, a handy spot to entertain the littler ones in the party.
Nearby
St Merryn village is a short stroll away, offering all you could need for your holiday essentials. As well as a general store, bakery, fish and chip shop, garage, and surf shop, this small but lively village is home to several pubs and restaurants, all of which serve food all year round. With the famed foodie town of Padstow just five miles away, there are plenty of options for all tastes and budgets.
The area is renowned for its stunning beaches that offer golden sands, hidden coves and inviting rockpools, as well as world-class waves. Based in St Merryn, Waves Surf School will provide all the equipment (and a lot of laughs!) and get you up and riding in no time.
This stretch of North Cornwall is famous for its dramatic coastline, which can be experienced in all its glory by walking the Southwest Coast path, the UK’s longest National Trail. The path is well signposted from most beaches and will lead you along the coast, offering breath-taking scenery at every turn. A walk around Trevose Head is a must, and if you are lucky, you may see the RNLI lifeboat launch from its station at Mother Ivey’s Bay.
