This attractive property is attached to the Manor House and is under the same ownership but is completely self-contained. It sits in the picturesque and peaceful Cornish hamlet of West Pentire and is only 300 yards from a cliff path that leads to acres of golden sand. The delights of rock pool fishing, exploring caves or surfing can be enjoyed by children and adults alike . Set in the heart of National Trust land, the property is surrounded by magnificent walking country around the headlands and bays away from the roads. It is an ideal base to explore North Cornwall’s splendid countryside, stunning coastline, and unique history. The historic and family friendly Bowgie Inn is nearby and offers a selection of food as well as local beers and ciders, and sports fans can enjoy Sky coverage. A general store can be found nearby, and Crantock village and its shops are only 1 mile away. The lively resort of Newquay, with its cliffs, honeycombed by numerous caves, is 5 miles round the estuary to the north. Beach 200 yards. Shop ¾ mile, pub and restaurant 50 yards.
Outside areas need sweeping and the potted plants need a lot of TLC!
A beautiful cottage, very comfortable and has everything you need. We stayed for two weeks and it felt like home, didn’t want to leave. The area is just beautiful, lovely walks a long the beach and great food at c-bay and the bowgie pub just across the road. Thanks for a lovely holiday
Third stay at Manor Cottage, and already booked twice for next year. Methinks that says that we like it! Reason for marking only 8 out of 10 for location... It was ideal for us - pub and excellent dog walks (on beach) on doorstep - but if someone expected a range of other amenities within walking distance, they might be a little disappointed. But to repeat - the location was absolutely ideal for us.
My heart belongs to Cornwall and especially West Pentire already so to find this gem of a holiday cottage is such great news! The cottage is clean and modern and has a lovely little sun trap of a patio which is a great place to enjoy a glass of wine. Manor Cottage is also located next to Cbay for incredible food and drinks with a fab view and also next to Bowgie for a relaxed pub environment. This cottage is also well located for a quick walk to Polly Joke for a great beach or down the headland to the creek which is a secret fave - great beach when tide is out and super swimming hole when tide is in. Caroline (the owner of Manor) and Jo (the property manager) are both incredibly helpful and quick to reply. Get your essentials delivered by online shop but if not Crantock Village has all you need (including fantastic pasties) and Morrison’s is a short drive away. I’ve already booked Manor Cottage again for the same time next year!
Manor cottage comfortably accommodates four and is perfectly situated for access by foot to the nearby beaches of Crantock, Polly Joke, Holywell and the local amenities of picturesque Crantock village. We have stayed in West Pentire on and off over many years but this was our first time at Manor Cottage, where we would happily stay again. While not having much of a garden as such, the sun-trap of a patio is the perfect spot for breakfast and there is plenty of room for washing & drying wetsuits etc. The greatest benefit of all was being able to leave the car unused for the whole week while making the most of the beautiful paths and beaches that the West Pentire headland has to offer. It was as enchanting as ever.
Perfect cottage; perfect location for us. We've been there before and we've already book again (twice). That should say it all. N.B: We've given a '7' for the local amenities. To explain...The local amenities were excellent for our requirements, but some people might find them a little lacking - the lack of a shop within walking distance, for example.
What a great House to stay in. We have been going to Cornwall for 5 years running and have had some really nice cottages, Manor cottage tops in every way. We will be back ASAP ?
The cottage was welcoming, clean and tastefully decorated there was everything we needed which made our stay comfortable and enjoyable the garden was enclosed with room for a couple of cars and no escape for our dog Alfie. there are great walks as soon as you stepped out of the gate with beautiful views and stunning beaches. The only downside is there is a house facing with windows directly overlooking the cottage, the downstairs windows have been frosted, because everything else is excellent we would defiantly stay there again and because of the location.
Lovely cottage, lovely spot, some great walks and views.
Our stay December, 2019
Beautiful cottage in fabulous location. 2 beaches on your doorstep and great pub round the corner.
