About this property
A gorgeous 400 year old thatched cottage 60m from the beach
This 400 year old chocolate box thatched seaside holiday cottage is tucked in the heart of Crackington Haven, North Cornwall. Abundant in character and charm. sleeps 7 + 1 guests. With old rafters and beams, wood burner and just steps away from the beach. Spend hours relaxing in Pa’s garden taking in the view of the hills that roll down to the beach. This haven is ideal for families, couples and friends with dozens of stunning country and coastal walks and gorgeous villages and sea side towns to visit.
Crackington's fabulous beach is brilliant for surfing and body boarding. If you don't fancy cooking then just wonder down and Enjoy the local family pub for a lovely meal or perhaps grab breakfast at either of the two beach cafes' all of which are within a stones throw of this wonderful cottage.

About the host
Hosted by Emily Woodward
I have been going down to Crackington Haven all my life (40 + years!) with my extended family and we all now go down each year with our children making up a group of about 35! The haven has a very special place in my heart and my two young daughters and husband now have the Crackington 'bug' so we are very excited to own this gorgeous characterful thatched cottage which is a stone's throw from the beach, pub and café. We love the outdoors so it is the perfect place for us - the coastal walks are stunning and the surfing fantastic with a beautiful beach to relax on while the children fish in the rock pools and play in the sand.
Why they chose this property
As this cottage is 400 years old it oozes character and provides the perfect cosy nest after a day on the beach or hiking along the Cornish coast-line. The location is ideal - it is just metres from the beach with the pub and café on your doorstep. There is no need to get in the car once you have arrived and the cottage provides the perfect haven to switch off from every day stress and relax.
What makes this property unique
It is located on the coastal path, with a private garden where you can enjoy the sea view and stunning sunsets. There is an outside hot shower for when you come off the beach after a surf. It is a thatched cottage which is 400 years old and provides a perfect cosy retreat.
