Description

Polzeath 3.6 miles.

Elmwood is a contemporary holiday home with all the modern comforts located in the heart of Trelights, three miles from the popular surfing beach of Polzeath and the film set of Doc Martin, Port Isaac on the North Cornwall coast.

Comprising of four beautifully decorated bedrooms, this stylish abode welcomes families eager to experience this wonderful region of Cornwall.

After a day of rambling the South West Coastal Path, head into the living room and get comfortable beside the woodburning stove, with the addition of a Smart TV for evening entertainment.

Bi-folding doors lead to the enclosed garden patio, a relaxing space to enjoy the sounds of the countryside with a refreshing beverage in hand.

The kitchen offers a refreshing palette of white and grey tones, along with a great selection of appliances where you can rustle up a home-cooked meal using fresh ingredients purchased from the nearby Trevathan Farm Shop.

There is a separate utility area and an outside hose to rinse your beach gear and prepare for the next day on the coast.

As you look to unwind, head upstairs and discover the four neatly presented bedrooms; the master houses a king-size bed and en-suite shower room, while there is also a super-king-size with zip/link beds, a double and a twin with zip/link beds.

Serving the bedrooms is a modern bathroom with choice of bath and shower over.

From your doorstep, take a stroll up the hill to the Longcross Hotel where you can enjoy some delicious local delicacies whilst admiring the far-reaching country and coastal views.

Also within walking distance is a local farm shop that not only offers fresh groceries and a café; they also have a fantastic park for children to play in and animals to help the Trevathan team feed while you enjoy a well-deserved coffee break before heading back to your holiday cottage.

Equidistant within three miles from Polzeath, widely known for its vast expanse of sand, surfing and scenic coastal walks on the South West Coast Path and the historic fisherman's port, Port Isaac.

Polzeath has a plethora of shops and surf hire hubs including clothing, a local grocery store, cafes and seaside restaurants.

No matter what surfing experience you have, Polzeath has it covered with surf hire and instructors who can guide you from beginner to advanced levels for those wanting to further improve their skills.

For those Doc Martin fans, take a day trip to Port Isaac where you can sample the catch of the day, delicious cream teas and of course to take a look at Doc Martin’s house on Roscarrock Hill.

However you choose to spend your holiday, return to the comfort of Elmwood to recharge your batteries.

The house is absolutely stunning.

There is a very small outdoor area with a small barbecue and garden furniture which we didn’t use as there was 7 of us in our party and we didn’t feel the space was big enough for us. My only criticism would be the plumbing! This was very noisy and the taps were loose in the kitchen. Easy to rectify but not what you expect in such a beautiful house. I would also recommend a simple welcome hampers which would allow late strivers to make themselves a drink after a long journey. We have stayed at many Sykes properties and this is the first property where a few simple basics weren’t provided. I do feel that at the price bracket for this property it would be provided. All very minor issues as the property is beautiful and I would highly recommend a stay here!

Having stayed in the property opposite on a previous holiday we knew the location would be perfect for exploring the places we love in Cornwall.

The cottage was good but not excellent as there are a few things that could be done to improve it. * better cleaning. Mould on shower screen seals (especially the one in the main one bathroom) lots of hairs on arrival in the bathroom which definitely were not ours * multiple chips on furniture around the house from wear and tear but things like this make it feel less premium * stained carpets (stairs quite bad) and furniture (sofas) * clear instructions to regulate the heating as we found it impossible to turn it down or off. In the information pages the page about heating/water is blank. * not enough hot water for everyone to shower on the same day / morning so we split it up (3 evening/3 morning) would’ve been handy to be able to boost the system to enable this to happen. * Crockery is cheap Ikea stuff which although clean is badly marked with wear * only one side table/lamp in one of the king bedded rooms and the room made up as a twin. * we were fortunate to have a week of sunshine, however when the children wanted to watch TV, the sun made this difficult and curtains would’ve been useful. All of the above comments are meant to be constructive feedback which could easily be sorted out. Thank you.

A well presented spacious house plenty of room for the 6 of us who stayed.

Very clean and good amenities. Great for a base for exploring Cornwall.
