    “This was the second time we have stayed at Westray House and it is absolutely fabulous.”

    The location is fantastic and general facilities in the house are excellent. There is a very handy wet room and outdoor shower which is brilliant for showering off after a swim in the sea and making sure any four legged friends are free from sand before they get into the house. The house has a lovely homely feel about it, with a brilliant fire. The hot tub is an added bonus! The beds are very comfy which is very important if you want any a relaxing week.

    The location is fantastic and general facilities in the house are excellent. There is a very handy wet room and outdoor shower which is brilliant for showering off after a swim in the sea and making sure any four legged friends are free from sand before they get into the house. The house has a lovely homely feel about it, with a brilliant fire. The hot tub is an added bonus! The beds are very comfy which is very important if you want any a relaxing week. Finally, we had some additional questions prior to booking regarding the dogs and the owners were extremely accommodating and just as we arrived we had a message to say some new non-stick pans were arriving (no doubt in response to a previous review so a very quick resolution to that issue) and we were welcome to open the delivery. We loved our stay as much this time as we did 3 years ago and are planning on booking again for next year.

    We are delighted to hear you had a good time and thank you for your lovely comments. We replaced some of the beds this year so we are glad you found the new beds comfortable. We also love going down to Cornwall off-season and look forward to welcoming you back next year. Property Owner

The property

Believed to have been built in the early 1900s, Westray House is one of the original houses in Polzeath, North Cornwall.

Set in a commanding position a short walk from the centre of the village.

On the seaward side of the house the sun deck has exceptional sea views over the sandy beach, Stepper Point, Gulland Island and the Atlantic Ocean and the added benefit of a hot tub (available at an additional charge).

Steps lead to the landscaped, terraced garden.

The house is accessed via an unmade private road and parking is provided for 2 vehicles at the bottom of the garden.

Sleeping 8 people in 4 bedrooms with 4 bath/shower rooms and 4 WCs, this is a superb, supremely comfortable self catering holiday haven. The house retains many of its original features including slate flag stone flooring in the kitchen, high ceilings and large windows, giving the house a light, modern feel but with the traditional charm of the original building.

A stunning modern wood burner set into the sitting room wall provides a focal point for evenings in with family, friends or a good book.

The first floor has 3 bedrooms; one boasts a comfortable super-king bed with ensuite shower room; 2 further bedrooms (one super-king and one twin) share a smart family bathroom.

Up on the second floor, a twin bedded room with a vaulted ceiling enjoys an ensuite shower room.

The embodiment of a Cornish seaside holiday, Polzeath ticks the boxes for all members of the family.

With a grocery store nearby and a choice of cafes and restaurants, you can leave the car idle for the rest of the week.

So close to the beach, the golden sands are perfect for sunbathers, while the surfers in the family can be the first to hit the waves; return for a slap-up breakfast before heading back into the water.

Hikers and the family dogs can stomp along the coastal path to discover grand cliffs and the quieter bays of Lundy Bay and Epphaven, even reaching Port Quin, this serene cove is an excellent spot to swim at high tide. Ground Floor: Kitchen Utility Room Sitting/Dining Room Shower Room/WC Wet Suit Room First Floor: Bedroom 1: Superking 6ft bed with ensuite shower room with basin and WC. Bedroom 2: Superking 6ft bed Family Bathroom: Bath with overhead fixed shower, basin and WC. Bedroom 3: Twin beds Second Floor: Bedroom 4: Twin beds with ensuite shower room with basin and WC. Pets welcome by arrangement restricted to ground floor. *Please note: From the road and parking level, there are a number of steps leading to the house. *Please note: Hot tub available at an additional weekly charge and is to be used at the guests own risk.

The water for the hot tub is completely changed every changeover, so the hot tub will take at least 24 hours to get to full temperature.

Water samples are collected for regulatory testing on the second Tuesday of every month between the hours of 10am and 2pm.

About the location

POLZEATH

Wadebridge 7.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles.

The seaside village of Polzeath boasts a sandy beach, which is bordered by rock pools and is acclaimed to be one of the best surfing beaches in the country. Polzeath itself has a number of small shops, cafes and restaurants, and the South West Coast Path, a 630-mile route, runs through the village. Just over seven miles away is the popular market town of Wadebridge, which is set alongside the River Camel and offers an array of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as North Cornwall's only family-owned cinema. There’s wonderful countryside in the area, with the renowned Camel Trail passing through the town, and the nearby town of Padstow, with its harbour, pastel-washed medieval houses and celebrated restaurants is well worth exploring. Within driving distance is the UK surfing capital of Newquay, with over 11 miles of golden sandy beaches. Polzeath is an excellent base for exploring this part of Cornwall.
