For a beach day out, the coast and glorious beach at Perranporth is just over two miles away, boasting a three-mile-long stretch of sand at low tide, as well as craggy rocks for rockpooling and excellent surfing conditions, which is true of all of north Cornwall's beaches that benefit from the Atlantic swell, while lifeguards guard the area in the summer, making this beach an extremely popular spot for families.
Explore Perranorth, with a host of quaint shops and cafés, as well as pubs and restaurants, including the unique Watering Hole, perched on the sand in the middle of the beach, offering live entertainment, good food and an amazing view of the sunset.
Venture further up the coast to the surfer's paradise of Newquay, boasting three excellent beaches and a host of attractions, including an aquarium, zoo and indoor pool, while Crantock boasts miles of picturesque sandy beaches.
Venture along the South West Coast Path towards the St Agnes Heritage Coast to discover breath-taking views, idyllic coves and the National Trust's Chapel Porth nature reserve.
Further afield, the UK’s most Southerly city, Truro, is a vibrant centre of shopping, farmers markets, culture and impressive architecture right in the heart of Cornwall.
Centre stage is Truro Cathedral.
Meadowside is a fantastic base from which to explore north Cornwall.

Lovely holiday home We spent 2 enjoyable weeks at Meadowside from 11th to 25th Sept 2026 and have recommended the home to family and friends and would like to return in the future.
It is a spacious, well equipped, very clean house with more than enough space for up to 8 people. The beds are comfy, the lounge is large as is the kitchen. The hot tub was an added bonus to enjoy a soak after a long day being out and about. Nice of the owner to give a £20 voucher to use at the Londis Supermarket in the village, we nearly missed it, as it was placed behind the welcome card in the kitchen. Its location is ideal for visiting the surrounding towns/villages. We ventured to Landsend in just over an hour's drive. £7.50 to park the car which the fee goes towards the upkeep of the area. On our way back, we visited St Michael's Mount, a nice walk out to it, but didn't go into the Castle, £21 entry fee. Car Parking is a pay as exit system. We used our OAP Bus Pass to visit Perranporth and Newquay. The bus journey to Perranporth was pleasant but the journey to Newquay was like being on a roller coaster going through the small villages, it was still enjoyable. We went to the New Inn pub down the road once only for a drink, staff were very welcoming. We mostly eat out during our stay, fish and chips twice at the Haddock End, takeaway from Jaipur Indian Restaurant in Perranporth, both very good. Ate out at the Copper Coast (Marston Pub) in Camborne twice, would advise to book a table. We liked Perranporth, so we walked to it twice. From the house turn right and then at the roundabout turn right and 100 metres or so you arrive at the Saints bridle trail, it took us about an hour, that’s if you don’t stop for a drink at the Bolingey Inn, a Country Pub. A lovely scenic walk. We would like to return in the future. Janice and Jim
Fantastic location for exploring Cornwall.
We absolutely love Perranporth and were also able to visit St Ives, St Michael's Mount, Newquay, and another National Trust garden during our stay. The property had what we needed: large bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen. We do feel like the property could do with a bit of updating; not sure all the sofas/chairs are required in the bedrooms (especially upstairs) - could have done with a few more in the living room (we prefer to sit together as a family, not have separate living areas). Plus, the patio and hot tub are not very private; they are very overlooked by the neighbour (owner's family).
