Modern seaside cottage, dog friendly, 200m from beach at Harlyn Bay. nr Padstow

Popa cottage is a spacious, modern, three-bedroom holiday home at Harlyn Bay, Cornwall, just a short, two-minute walk to one of Britain’s most beautiful sandy beaches, perfect for surfing, long walks and picnics and close to idyllic Padstow. No need to get the car out to go to the beach! Dogs are welcome in the cottage and on the beach!

Located at ‘Polmark Beach Cottages’ a small complex of accommodation surrounded by stunning rural scenery, Popa provides a tranquil and cosy base to relax after a day at the beach. Perfect for families or small groups of friends, the cottage comprises open plan living space with a well-equipped kitchen and three bedrooms, including a master en-suite.

Derek and Steph have recently acquired this cottage and whilst it is an ideal holiday home they plan to continue a programme of home improvements to make the cottage even better. A new kitchen and family bathroom have been installed and the patio area has been decked with a comfy rattan-styled corner suite added. The cottage has everything you might need and is close to some super eateries. (Cornish Arms, The Pig Hotel and Duchy Grub!).

Dogs are welcome in the cottage as well as on the beach.

Beautiful place, perfect for beach, it really is 2 mins walk. Beautiful sandy beach, dog friendly. The house was just perfect, we stayed 2 weeks, only thing I would say is could have done with a bigger freezer. Definitely be back!

Lovely holiday cottage
Lovely accommodation in a great location, really close to the beautiful beach at Harlyn Bay. The cottage had everything we needed, the owners have thought of everything. Only criticism is it could have been a bit cleaner. Nothing drastic - crumbs on the worktops and a bit dusty. We had a great week and would definitely return.

Family holiday in Cornwall
We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at Popa Cottage. The cottage is well positioned in the beautiful village of Harlyn. The accommodation includes very comfortable beds and reclining sofas, super showers, a brilliant kitchen with everything you need (which you don't always find in holiday homes!) and a lovely sunny courtyard garden, which is well protected from the coastal winds. Derek, the host, made booking and arrival very straightforward, and the wine, biscuits and dog treats were a lovely surprise! We highly recommended it!

Stunning beach nearby
The property contained everything that one could possibly need. We also appreciated the welcoming touches of a bottle of wine for the adults and treats for the dog! The slightly acrid aroma from the master bathroom toilet was a little strong but suspect that this is something that cannot be overcome and was not caused by any lack of hygiene. There were a few areas where the cleaner had missed the spot - those dusty corners we all miss no matter how good our cleaning might be. I would suggest that the owners log the last user out of Netflix and Prime. Overall the property was excellent and we would definitely condider a return visit!

Beautiful setting. Nice property with everything you need. Bathrooms both had great showers and beds comfy so not much else required for a week at the seaside. Only issue was Property not overly clean which was a disappointment especially when you can’t check in until 4pm due to cleaners. Food under sofas and lots of cobwebs / dust. Shame as with a proper clean this would have been a 5star review for everything. Would definitely book again though

Lovely location
Just returned from a weeks stay. Really enjoyed it. The accommodation was spacious and well equipped and clean. Beds very comfortable. The beach is less than 5 minutes walk away which really added to our enjoyment. It’s a beautiful beach which is also dog friendly. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others. The only thing we maybe found less than ideal was the lack of enclosed outdoor space for the dog at the cottage. Wasn’t a huge problem. We walked him so much he was glad to sleep when in the cottage! But it did mean that we couldn’t leave the door open in the warm weather. Just something to bear in mind if this may be an issue for you but otherwise was faultless. Thank you for such a pleasant and comfortable stay.
