Kittiwake Constantine

Kittiwake Constantine is a 4-bedroom detached house sleeping 8 at Constantine Bay, set back from the road with a conservatory, a generous lounge, and a separate dining area. Bedrooms include a king-size room with en-suite, a double, a twin, and a bunk bedroom - making it well configured for a mixed group of adults and children. A wood burner heats the main lounge and patio doors open to a generous enclosed rear garden with BBQ, outdoor shower, and space for outdoor dining after a day at the beach.

Treyarnon Bay is 1.2km down the lane and Constantine Bay beach is 1.3km. Both are sandy, west-facing beaches that pick up Atlantic surf and are popular with families and bodyboarders. The South West Coast Path passes nearby, and Harlyn Bay is 1.6km for calmer water in southerly winds. Trevose Golf Club is within a mile for those who want to mix golf with a beach holiday.

The village of Padstow is around 6 miles south, with its harbour restaurants and ferry across to Rock. Newquay - with its zoo and aquarium - is 10.5 miles south-east. Two dogs are welcome on site.

Suits a group of up to 8 looking for a well-equipped house close to west Cornwall surf beaches. Ideal for families with children who want both beach access and outdoor space. Less good for those wanting a central town location or evening walking distance to restaurants, as Constantine Bay is a quiet, residential beach hamlet.
