) at the fabulous Worthy House. It really is a home away from home with such a special feeling the minute you walk in - a wonderful library, welcoming Aga, extremely comfortable beds, good quality linen and towels and well equipped kitchen. The location is perfect for both the beach and Polzeath and being walkable to The Oystercatcher pub is a bonus too. Thank you to the owners for sharing what is clearly a much loved and cared for house.
