Fido Family Friendly Places

Minutes from the golden sands of Holywell Bay (1½ miles), this well presented detached cottage has all you need for a memorable stay, close to the North Cornwall Coast. The cliffs, beaches, countryside and quaint villages surrounding the cottage provide all the ingredients for a holiday in Cornwall. Cubert with its unique church, pub, tea room and local shop still has a village feel while being close to the surfing capital of Newquay and the coastal villages of Crantock and Perranporth. Shops and restaurant 50 yards, pubs ½ mile.

Churchtown Cottage is a charming Cornish retreat situated in the picturesque village of Cubert, dominated by a beautiful 14th-century church and conveniently located just 4¾ miles from Newquay. Given the cottage’s age, be mindful of the low ceiling upon entering the property and the low ceiling when descending the stairs—while the rest of the property poses no issue. The owner has thoughtfully renovated the cottage, preserving original features such as exposed stone walls, authentic slate flooring, and a fireplace with a wood burner.
Outside, a covered area provides a tranquil spot for reading or enjoying your morning coffee, while a larger table on the patio invites al fresco dining. Across from the magnificent church, fields offer an ideal space for dog walking and children to play. Along the main road, you’ll find a fantastic fish and chip shop, a bakery with a café, a convenience shop, and a post office. Just a mile away, a local pub with an impressive reputation offers a variety of dishes to suit all tastes.
Churchtown Cottage is surrounded by the stunning beaches of Crantock, Holywell Bay, and Polly Joke, eliminating the need for extensive travel to reach the coast. For surfing enthusiasts, Fistral Beach in Newquay and Perranporth are easily accessible. After a day at the beach, rinse off the sand under the outdoor heated shower, and take advantage of ample space in the garden for storing wetsuits and bodyboards.
The area offers a plethora of activities, catering to families with children, dog owners, walkers, and those seeking to explore the surroundings. Nearby attractions include the Newquay Zoo, Blue Reef Aquarium, Lappa Valley Steam Railway, Pennywell Farm, and the Newquay Mystery Trail, among others. Alternatively, explore the rugged views along the Cornish coast paths or visit the Eden Project in Par. After a day of adventure, return to Churchtown Cottage, unwind in the private courtyard, and marvel at the breathtaking night skies.
