This reverse-level, two-storey home has been designed with relaxation and comfort in mind. The interiors are styled in cool neutral tones, complemented by statement artwork inspired by the drama of the surrounding coastline.
On the first floor you will find two well-appointed bedrooms. The primary bedroom enjoys views towards the coast and features a contemporary ensuite shower room. The second bedroom offers a super-king zip-and-link bed, providing flexible accommodation for families or couples. A beautifully finished family bathroom with Villeroy & Boch fixtures completes this floor.
A central staircase leads down to the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space, where large double doors open out onto the private outdoor areas. The generous living space provides plenty of room to relax together, filled with natural light during the summer months and perfectly cosy for evenings in during the cooler seasons.
The fully equipped kitchen has everything needed to prepare relaxed meals after a day exploring the coast, while the adjoining dining space makes it easy to gather together and share memorable moments.
Outside, a paved patio with all-weather dining furniture provides the perfect spot for morning coffee or alfresco meals. The patio leads onto a private lawn, offering space for children to play or simply somewhere to unwind while taking in the surrounding views.
A private side gate leads down towards the communal riverside area and shoreline, where a boat-themed outdoor shower allows you to rinse away sand and salt after time spent on the beach. A private surf store beside the property provides secure space for wetsuits, boards and beach equipment.
Set on the Pentire headland in Newquay, one of the area’s most sought-after coastal settings, Samphire is a beautifully positioned holiday home with breathtaking views across the River Gannel towards Crantock Beach. With the Atlantic on one side and the peaceful estuary on the other, this unique corner of Cornwall offers the perfect balance of coastal adventure and laid-back luxury.
From the property, the South West Coast Path winds along dramatic clifftops with sweeping views across the Gannel estuary and out to the Atlantic beyond. It is an unforgettable setting for morning walks or golden-hour sunsets.
The beautiful sands of Crantock Beach lie just across the river and can be reached via the footbridge at low tide, or by the seasonal passenger ferry during the warmer months. With wide golden sands and rolling dunes, it is one of Cornwall’s most beautiful beaches, perfect for long beach days, paddleboarding on the calm estuary waters or sunset strolls along the shore.
A short walk in the opposite direction brings you to the legendary Fistral Beach, the UK’s surfing capital, where laid-back beach cafés, surf schools and ocean-view restaurants create a vibrant coastal atmosphere.
For food lovers, Samphire is perfectly placed to explore Cornwall’s celebrated culinary scene. A short stroll brings you to the much-loved Fern Pit Café, perched above the estuary and renowned for its fresh seafood and relaxed waterside setting. Nearby, the clifftop restaurant at Lewinnick Lodge offers spectacular Atlantic views and seasonal coastal dining.
Further afield, Newquay’s growing collection of restaurants and cafés is just minutes away, while the renowned foodie destination of Padstow is an easy drive along the coast. Watergate Bay is also well worth a visit, known for its sweeping beach and outstanding restaurants overlooking the Atlantic.
Whether your days are spent exploring the coastline, enjoying long lunches by the sea or watching the sunset after a day on the beach, Samphire offers the perfect base from which to experience the very best of north Cornwall.
