Home description
Named after the charming tiny seabird, to be found darting in and out of the local surf, this delightful bright and airy ground floor apartment, is moments away from the stunning Cornish coastline and the golden stretches of sand on Harlyn Bay beach. Sanderlings offers pleasant self-catering accommodation for a family of four (cot & highchair can be provided for babies), and is within easy reach of the famous fishing port of Padstow just 2 miles away.

The West Country / Cornwall region
Cornwall is a beautiful county, blessed with a climate similar to northern France. It is famous for it's pasties, cream teas and ice cream, and we challenge any of you to come home after your holiday weighing less than you did before it! But who cares- that is what holidays are all about!
Cornwall is not a large county but is packed with history and tourist attractions a plenty. It is only 25 minutes to Newquay from Harlyn Bay, 45 minutes to St.Ives and 1 1/2 hours to Land's End. The south coast is only a short drive away too, and many a happy afternoon can be spent poking round the quaint shops of Fowey or relaxing with an ice cream on Mevagissy harbour.
Padstow / St Merryn area
There are seven fabulous beaches in the area and mile upon mile of breathtaking coastal walks and scenery. The Eden project is approximately 30 minutes drive away. There are many National Trust properties close by.
THE LOCAL AREA The village of St. Merryn is 1 mile away, providing excellent amenities, shops, pubs and an award winning fish and chip shop. Wet suits can be hired all year round.
The apartment is within easy walking distance( 5 minutes) of an excellent pub which caters for all the family, with an extensive menu and nightly carvery. There is also an well stocked beach shop which hires out surf boards and surf-skis.
PLACES TO VISIT
As well as the wonderful beaches, the area is littered with tourist attractions, the Eden Project, Flambards, Poldark Mines to name just a few, and the picturesque villages that lie inland just a short drive away hold many delights in the way of rustic pubs with mouthwatering fare, cream teas. In St Merryn there are fabulous restaurants that give even Rick Stein a run for his money!
Padstow though is a must with it's quaint streets and shops, fabulous restaurants (book months early and save up if you wish to visit Rick Stein's Seafood restaurant ), and the beautiful village of Rock and St. Enerdoc is just a ferry ride away. Bicycles can be hired from Padstow, for the flat and picturesque ride up the River Camel trail to Wadebridge & beyond.
For those of you who enjoy golf, Trevose Head Golf Club -Peter Alliss's favourite Cornish course, (one of Maggie Thatcher's favourites too!) is but 1 minute away. It is a stunning course right out on the headland, with panoramic views across the sea, Booby's Bay and Constantine Beach.
This area is the perfect venue for the family holiday, you can spend each day doing something different, or every day doing nothing at all, the choice is all yours!
How to get there
Links to the West Country are excellent these days and this area of North Cornwall is easily accessible by road, just 1 1/2 hours from Exeter, or by rail to Bodmin and then taxi or bus to the coast.
It is definitely preferable to have a car, as the tourist attractions, such as the Eden Project & Lands End to mention just two, plus the mile after mile of magnificent coastline and beaches are not to be missed.
