Introduction
Skylarks is a beautiful home enjoying an amazing outlook, spectacular views which reach far out in the distance, not just to the sea but across miles of countryside. The property is spacious and modern with comfortable four bedroom accommodation and gardens.
Including a wonderful kitchen and dining room with bi-fold doors out to the garden where you can look out to the sea on the horizon, there is a separate sitting room with a second set of bi-fold doors opening out onto the same patio area, creating a fantastic flow through the living areas and really bringing the outdoors in.
With four bedrooms in total sleeping up to 8 people, each enjoying a stunning view over the surrounding countryside, and two rooms looking out to sea. The master room and rear double room share a balcony where you can really appreciate the outlook, these two rooms are the first to wake up and see the sea! There is a contemporary family bathroom and a stylish en-suite to the master room.
Nearby
Skylarks is situated on a quiet country lane within easy reach of Porthcothan Bay, approximately a 15 minute walk to the beach. In the village there is Macdonald’s Farm, a lovely family place serving wood fired pizzas in the evening and a great bar, and a cafe in the daytime – open all summer season. There is also a bus stop just over the road which runs links to Padstow or Newquay so easy for trips out and about if you don’t want to drive.
The beach at Porthcothan Bay is just a mile down the road, a 15 minute walk away. Porthcothan is a sheltered sandy beach nicely tucked in between Padstow and Newquay. There is a cafe/shop in the dunes, plus parking and toilets are both situated just over the road. A dog friendly beach all year. If you want to vary your beach days, within easy reach you have Mawgan Porth or Watergate Bay, home to the Extreme Academy for water sports adventurers. Or head up to Treyarnon Bay or Constantine for miles more stretches of golden sands, a huge range within 10 minutes.
There are also several scenic walks on the doorstep along the South West Coast Path, including Bedruthan Steps within a couple of miles, a simply beautiful coastal walk which is a must!
Layout
With gorgeous porcelain tiled floor through the ground floor across the living areas. The tasteful kitchen diner is a perfect spot for blending cooking and socialising, with stools at the kitchen island and plenty of space around the dining table.
