About this property

Nestled centrally in the coastal village of Trevone, Cornwall, is Dolphin's Barn, a fabulous, four-bedroom home. Enjoying sea views and a close proximity to the beach and a hub of amenities, Dolphin's Barn offers a spacious home for a family getaway, a light-flooded living space, and flexible sleeping arrangements for eight guests. Park up on the private driveway and make your way into your new abode, starting off in the sitting room, offering a quiet space to unwind after a day of travelling. Head into the open-plan living space, the heart of the home, where you can prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, dine as a group. On warmer days, light the barbecue and enjoy an alfresco affair, with distant sea views as your backdrop, before returning indoors to complete your nightly routine in either the ground-floor shower room, bathroom, or one of the en-suites. Catch some rest in one of the four well-appointed bedrooms on offer, including two delightful twins, a spacious king-size, and a stunning super-king-size bedroom, complete with lofty ceilings and flooded with natural light through the patio doors; watch the sun set over Trevone from the private balcony with a glass of wine in hand. Awaken to explore your surroundings, starting off with a stroll along Trevone Bay and continuing on to Padstow, before visiting the National Lobster Hatchery, touring Padstow Harbour, and grabbing a bite to eat at Rick Stein's waterside restaurant. For another day at the beach, be sure to visit Newquay and its golden landscape, also brimming with family-friendly attractions, including the Blue Reef Aquarium and Newquay Golf Club, or if you're feeling adventurous, take to the water for an afternoon of watersports. Round off your break by hiking towards Pentire Point, or try your hand at surfing at Polzeath Beach, before returning home for a family games night. Gather all your loved ones at Dolphin's Barn.
