About this property

Glen Valley Cottage. Pretty cottage close to Rock and Polzeath

Fully updated comfortable and cosy, self catering holiday cottage. Conveniently situated at Treglyn Farm near to St Minver, Rock, Polzeath and Padstow, with easy access to all of the popular tourist destinations and attractions in Cornwall.

The cottage is set in large, well kept communal gardens with plenty of space, as well as a private, enclosed garden to enjoy the evening sun.

We are tucked away down a lane and set back from the road that links Wadebridge to Polzeath, Rock and the coast beyond, enjoying splendid views over the Camel Estuary and Bodmin Moor.

Glen Valley Cottage has been fully updated and refurbished to provide a relaxing home from home holiday experience.

No smoking in the cottage please. Free wifi included.

Changeover day is a Saturday. Some flexibility in low season.

Well behaved dogs are very welcome, but will need to be kept on a lead in the communal grounds, however, we have an enclosed back garden where dogs can be let off the lead and you can enjoy the afternoon and evening sun.

Tesco and other supermarkets deliver to the cottage, just book your slot early in peak season!

There is a bank of high speed EV charging points in Wadebridge, approx 5 miles from the cottage..

Summer holiday

This is a great property in a very quiet area. It was perfect for us with all the amenities you need and we really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was in a great location too. Brilliant grounds and although we didn't end up taking our dog , it would have been ideal for her.

Very nice place

Lovely and cozy cottage with a beautiful garden. Perfectly located. Eventhough most of the time it wasn't beach weather, there were lots of beautiful places to visit (Minack Theater, St Nectans Glen Waterfall, Port Isaac, Prideaux). As soon as it was sunny the rock beach, particulary for dogs, was the place to go. Also did the sea Safari and saw dolphins. If your looking for a great place to have breakfast: Chapel Cafe, Port Isaac To watch the sunset while eating you should go to the beach hut.

Our getaway from it all.

We had a lovely restful holiday at Glen Valley Cottage. We had everything there to meet our needs and we were able to go back at the end of the day and put our feet up and relax. There are lots of places to see some close and some further afield but never too long a drive. The fantastic weather we had was the icing on the cake. We would happily recommend Glen Valley Cottage.

Home from Home

Just returned from a lovely stay at Glen Valley Cottage. From the minute we entered we felt at home. Beautifully clean and comfortable. Jackie (caretaker) had done a great job with cleanliness. Karla sent a lovely email a few days before we arrived which was informative yet also personal and friendly (thank you Karla). Beautiful grounds to look out on, only a very short track from the main road so no problems and a great place for exploring. Totally recommend and will be top of my list next time we are down in Cornwall.

Perfect stay in North Cornwall

This was a last minute booking after our trip to the Scilly Isles was cancelled. Communication with the owner, Karla was excellent from the get go. She was very accommodating to our changing requests. The cottage is really easy access, but set in a quiet location away from the masses. It is very well appointed with a fully equipped kitchen and very comfortable...a perfect home from home. As we'd already spent a few days near St Ives, we focussed on the coast nearby - Rock, Polzeath, Port Isaac, Tintagel and Boscastle are all within 30 minutes. You can get the ferry from Rock to Padstow and we also enjoyed all the lively independent shops there...a butcher, baker, deli, fishmonger. We used this to stock up on stuff for lunches and made one dinner at home. There are lots of good eateries all along this coast too. Advise to book early. We struggled a bit on a weeknight in early October. Eden Project is less than an hour away, as is St Michael's Mount and St Ives. We'll definitely be back.

A lovely week in North Cornwall

We stayed in this lovely two-bedroom cottage in a great location near to all the dog-friendly beaches in North Cornwall, the little food shops in Rock and Padstow is just a ferry ride away. The cottage itself is set in lovely grounds with a nice big communal lawn for the kids and dog to play in when at home. The cottage was comfy and well equipped, especially the kitchen, and it was well decorated throughout to provide a homely feel. My only gripe was that the mattress in the double bedroom was too soft to support my bad back. Overall it was a great stay and thoroughly recommended.

About the host

Why they chose this property

We love Cornwall, especially the North coast. After visiting different parts of Cornwall for our own family holidays we fell in love with this area and have returned for many years. We bought the cottage in January 2017 and are delighted we can share it with you.

It is situated close to fabulous beaches such as Polzeath, Rock and Daymer Bay which offers everything from surfing, sailing, coasteering, walking, dog friendly beaches etc. A few miles from the now famous Port Isaac, a ferry ride away to Padstow, a couple of miles to Wadebridge (which offers the camel trail and bike riding) and only a short drive to Newquay. There so much to do and see in this part of Cornwall we never tire of visiting and are sure you will love it too!

What makes this property unique

Glen Valley Cottage has been equipped to cater for family holidays and we're delighted we can share it with you. It is one of 10 cottages with large communal lawns, as well as a private, enclosed garden to enjoy the evening sun.

For those of you with children who want to enjoy some outdoor play at the end of a day, it's a safe environment which is totally visible from your cottage. Or you may wish to have a barbecue in the cottage garden.

It's quiet and tranquil setting, well away from the main roads. Perfect to relax after a busy day at the beach or walking some of the fantastic footpaths or stunning coastal walks.
