Polwen
Description
What sets Polwen apart from other accommodation, is its highly sought-after location just a few minutes’ walk from the fantastic beach at Harlyn Bay, Padstow in Cornwall.
Perfect for a family holiday or a small get-together of friends, Polwen boasts simply stunning accommodation which is conveniently spread over the ground floor.
You can park up with ease on the gravelled driveway and as soon as you unload your bags and step into the light and airy property, your holiday can begin.
The open-plan living space is a really sociable area where you can imagine gathering either to chill out and catch up with each other’s news or watch TV together in the seating area, or cook up a storm in the more than amply equipped kitchen with two dining areas offering plenty of room for entertaining during your stay.
Choose from a window seat and dining table at the front of the space, ideal for informal brunches and breakfasts on the go, or step into the additional dining area overlooking the delightful gardens, which is just perfect for a more formal dinner party and is somewhere you can really look forward to tucking into long, leisurely meals together.
If the sun is shining (which it does a lot in Cornwall!), you can take your drinks outside and spend some time alfresco, while the kids and any dogs can run around safely in the enclosed gardens.
And even better, there is a gorgeous little path which leads directly from the garden at Polwen down to the beach so it couldn’t be easier to pack a picnic and head out for the day, right from the front door.
After an exhilarating day at the beach, there is nowhere better to come back to than Polwen with its two shower rooms the ideal spot for washing off the sand before chilling out and then at bedtime, guests can choose from three immaculately-presented bedrooms including a family room, a double and a master super-king-size.
Waking up in the morning is a delight at Polwen with the beach beckoning and the delights of Cornwall on the doorstep just waiting to be discovered.
Harlyn is an enchanting little village and the beach is popular with swimmers, surfers and dog walkers.
If you like walking, there are more trails, hikes and walks than you can shake a stick at along the South West Coastal Path with some spectacular views.
Keen golfers will be pleased to know there are great courses at Trevose and Enedoc and neighbouring towns of Newquay and Padstow are both well worth a visit known for their beaches and star-studded restaurants, cafes, pubs and bistros.
Talking of beaches, there are so many to choose from in the local area, but ones worth checking out include Daymer Bay, Pentire Head and Polzeath.
For a holiday home that ticks all the boxes in a simply superb setting, Polwen is the only choice.

What guests are saying
The perfect place to stay with dogs and people.
The garden is fully enclosed. Proximity to the beautiful beach and coast path means there is no need to go anywhere else if you don’t feel like it. The house is lovely, comfortable and well appointed. I would go back in a heartbeat.
We had a lovely stay at Polwen and we had booked the property a we were holidaying with elderly relatives who had mobility issues.
The walk to the beach was very much short, as advertised, but due to the hills it was difficult for them to walk the journey so we still had to drive. The property itself was well appointed and had all we need. The big issue that let it down was the cleanliness. I can only assume that it is cleaned by a company who take no ownership off the standards. The linen was clean but there were huge dust bunnies under much of the furniture. Huge hand marks and smears over many of the windows. The kitchen cupboards were very dirty and we had to clean properly before we could use much of it. A lot of the equipment hadn't been cleaned properly, and we had to run a lot through the dishwasher before we could use it and cook. For the price point I would have expected some kind of 'welcome pack' with a pint of milk and some bread, which in my experience is pretty much standard at most holiday lets and AirBnBs. We had a lovely week in a lovely property that has been well developed and now just needs a decent cleaning company to bring it up to standard.
The cleanliness of the property disappointed me.
In the lounge there were big wads of dust and hair under the TV and other unit which were visible but hadn’t been hoovered up. The windowsills in the dining area needed cleaning. The carpets were looking tired. The rubbish notice made no sense , there were no different coloured bags. There was no key to open the second French door, on the right. We couldn’t find any window keys.
