St Merryn 2.3 miles. Perfectly located for exploring the beautiful and dramatic north Cornish coast is this tastefully furnished lodge, Chalet 216. With a superb collection of some of the finest beaches in Cornwall all within a short drive, families, a couple and beach lovers alike will be spoilt for choice. Step into the open-plan living space which offers a real homely feel and a sofa giving ample room for all the family to sit around and relax after a memorable day walking the stunning coastal path or a lazy day on your choice of beach. Whip up your meals in the kitchen area to enjoy as you plan a day of adventures. There are two bedrooms, a double and a twin situated next to the bathroom, so you can rest your head after a busy day or indulge in a leisurely soak. Spend your mornings on the decking with a steaming cup of coffee in hand, or perhaps dine al fresco in the warmer evenings as a family. There's a definite nautical feel to the place, with its fishing blue colour scheme and the harbourside town of Padstow within easy reach. Padstow is home to boats and old-fashioned pubs, along with Pentire Point which is a big draw, as is the National Lobster Hatchery so there is something for all ages. If you're after a bit of excitement, take a boat trip from the harbour – there are some great spots to explore along the coastline; if you're feeling active, the Camel Trail is a great way to see the area on two wheels. Further afield you can venture into the popular surfing town of Newquay; the vibrant town is teeming with attractions, shops, restaurants, and pubs, from the Newquay Zoo and Blue Reef Aquarium to the Pirate's Quest Adventure Golf Course, ideal for a day out with the kids. Closer to home, the site offers plenty of activities for the children, a play park, classic arcade games, and for the adults, a bar and restaurant with tasty homemade food. Chalet 216 makes a fantastic escape to beautiful Cornwall.
St Merryn is a traditional Cornish village, just two miles from the sea and near to Padstow's gorgeous harbour and fishing port. St Merryn is a holidaymaker's dream, surrounded by some of Cornwall's best surfing beaches and golf courses, with two pubs, three restaurants, a Chinese takeaway, a chip store, mini markets, and a Post Office, all while remaining within easy reach of the area's visitor attractions.

Newquay also has excellent shopping, a zoo, a Sea Life Centre, and a diverse range of nightclubs, bars, and restaurants. St Merryn is a perfect location for exploring the surrounding area at your leisure, as it is set back from the major vacation hordes.

The chalet is bright, modern and comfortable. It is ideally located for all the local beaches, a trip to Padstow and beyond. Communication with the owner about the property and key collection was great. It was also lovely to meet the owner, who popped around to say hello during our visit.
Kaye
Cleanliness was poor and the facilities on the sight were poor. No club house just a marquee with 9 tables and a food van turned up 2 times a week. Very poor
Katie
Very clean and well equipped. Holiday park is in a great location also.
