With its bevy of beautiful beaches, stunning scenery, rugged coastline and laid-back way of life, it’s easy to see why so many of us love to escape to North Cornwall for our holidays. Wedged between Crantock and Perranporth, with a golden dune-backed sandy beach and panoramic Atlantic views on show, Holywell Bay epitomise all that makes this part of the world so special.
If you’re in search of the perfect place for your holiday here, Sandyford which lies just a short walk from the beach, is a dream come true. The house forms part of the exclusive The Rocks development – an award-winning collection of 10 luxury homes which settles just behind the dunes and mere metres from the shoreline. Tastefully styled and with ample room for both socialising and relaxation, the fittings, furnishings and entertainment features of this home are all top-notch.
On the ground floor you’ll find four beautiful bedrooms each with their own Smart TVs, while upstairs there’s a gorgeous open plan living space with sea views where you can cook, eat, unwind and spend time together. For those who love water sports, Holywell is ideal for swimming, body boarding and surfing, and beach-based Holywell Bay School of Surf offers lessons and equipment hire to visitors of all ages and abilities. If you prefer sunbathing there are many sheltered spots to choose from, while children will love paddling in the rock pools or shallow streams at low tide.
Lying half a kilometre offshore, the iconic Gull Rocks (which featured in BBC One’s Poldark) form a dramatic backdrop for your day on the sand and in the sea, and when the tide is out, you’ll discover natural caves, rivers and waterfalls to explore. Just six miles west of Holywell lie the famous surfing beaches of Fistral Beach and Watergate Bay along with all of Newquay’s other array attractions. Or venture east to Perranporth and soak of the atmosphere of this quintessentially vibrant beach resort.
