Accommodation in Port Isaac

About Polzeath and Port Isaac

Port Isaac and neighbouring Port Gaverne form a small part of the rugged North Cornwall coast. The area is surrounded by open countryside in an area designated as of outstanding natural beauty.

Port Isaac
Like many Cornish harbours has an historical connection with the mining industry and fishing. Fishing boats still operate from, the harbour, although tourism gathers a more important role each year.
The village is very old with little white painted cottages, steep hills and narrow roads. There are numerous small shops, restaurants, pubs and tea-rooms. Excellent walks along the cliffs.
It boasts only small sea front. Major beaches are not too far away, with both Polzeath and rock but a short drive.

Port Gaverne
A little coastal hamlet adjoining Port Isaac. Small beach at low tide with numerous rock pools for children to explore.
Good rock fishing from, the National Trust headland.

Polzeath & New Polzeath
This coastal resort has a wide open expanse of soft sand and is regarded by many as one of the best surfing beaches in Cornwall.
Like many North Cornwall resorts the area offers breathtaking walks along open cliff paths.
Local services are available in the small village.
Car parking/toilets on the beach, very popular in the summer months with families.


Summary: Good family resorts breath taking views! A good base for touring and walking and relaxing.

Our garden has been evolving since 1998. Our wish is to create an environment in which wildlife can thrive alongside colourful cottage garden plants. The wilder areas in the woods are carpeted in spring with snowdrops and bluebells. The kitchen garden provides the freshest and tastiest fruit and vegetables for the dinner table.

LEISURE ACTIVITIES

Whether you stroll through our gardens, relax by the salmon stream or venture out, Polrode Mill Cottage provides a tranquil setting from which to base your holiday.

Whatever the season, Cornwall has much to offer from the rugged seas of wintertime, the snowdrops, primroses and daffodils of spring, then the stately rhodedendrons, followed by bluebells heralding the start of summer. Enjoy the many sandy beaches and coves, beautiful walks of the National Trust coastline, the Camel estuary or Bodmin Moor.

Close by, are the unspoiled fishing villages of Padstow, Port Isaac and Boscastle. The Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the houses and gardens at Lanhydrock (National Trust) Pencarrow, and Prideaux Place and the mythical castle at Tintagel are only a short drive away.

For those looking for more activity, the Camel estuary is a fine centre for sailing, windsurfing and water skiing and the Camel Trail between Padstow and Bodmin is ideal for cycling. Golfing is enjoyed all year 'round with Trevose, St Kew, Bowood, St Enodoc and Roserrow courses all within easy reach.
