In Treknow, four Victorian terraced houses perched high with terrific views down the Trebarwith Strand beach valley through big bay windows.
We let two: the houses are on three levels with about 10 steps from the lane up to their front doors, at the back, each has a long, enclosed garden (table/chairs) on various levels, with a gate at the top leading to a back lane and parking.
A few hundred yards down the lane, a good food pub/restaurant (remember torch!).
Friendly all-year-round family houses, well placed for beach, walking and exploring north Cornwall.
Heightley House is homely and comfortable.
From front garden, door to hall.
Living room with open fire, TV/DVD, iPod dock and great views.
Big kitchen/dining room (dishwasher, washing machine, tumble drier, microwave, fridge-freezer, electric cooker) with original Delabole slate floor.
Back porch leading to loo and door with a few steps up to the garden.
From hall, stairs (stairgates) up to two bedrooms - a double (5' bed) with great views including glimpse of sea, and a twin; bathroom (suite, bath, with separate shower).
More stairs up to second floor and another twin bedroom with great views and TV.
Treknow: hamlet of mostly old cottages, a mile from the fine sand/surf beach of Trebarwith Strand.
Tintagel, about 1 mile.
Superb coastal walks.
Golf, leisure centre and riding at Camelford (small town, pubs, shops, restaurant on the River Camel), 6 miles.
