About this property
Little Belz is a light and airy, detached holiday home, situated in an elevated position above Polzeath, Cornwall. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, Little Belz offers wonderful sea views of the Cornish coastline from its principal rooms, whilst a footpath runs down to the busy surf hub of Polzeath and all its amenities, sweeping golden sands and pounding surf. Sleeping up to seven guests, the home offers a wonderful base for families and friends alike, complete with a good-size rear garden, ample parking, and a garage, for storing your surfboards and beach toys. A sunny balcony is an idyllic spot for a morning coffee and perfect for checking the sea and weather conditions, whilst Little Belz benefits from an attractive lounge on the first floor, where you can even enjoy the vistas on cooler days. Downstairs is a lovely, practical kitchen with dining area, where you can prepare meals and gather, whilst the rear garden benefits from a large, decked area, perfect for alfresco dining as the sun sets. Three bedrooms are on offer, including a king-size with an en-suite, and two twins, one also benefitting from an en-suite, whilst an additional bathroom and cloakroom offer convenience. Polzeath is a wonderful location for your holiday; be it for surfers, beach combers or walkers. The glorious coastal paths can take you to the gentle, calm waters of Daymer Bay and on towards Rock, with its sailing hub of the Camel Estuary. Alternately you can head high up towards the National Trust reserves of Pentire point and the Rumps, looking out for those wonderful words from the war poet Laurence Binyon, where in 1914 he wrote ‘For the Fallen’. Sightings of cormorants, gannets, and seals are common and the lucky few may spot a porpoise or dolphin. Book your next getaway at Little Belz.
The seaside village of Polzeath boasts a sandy beach, which is bordered by rock pools and is acclaimed to be one of the best surfing beaches in the country. Polzeath itself has a number of small shops, cafes and restaurants, and the South West Coast Path, a 630-mile route, runs through the village. Just over seven miles away is the popular market town of Wadebridge, which is set alongside the River Camel and offers an array of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as North Cornwall's only family-owned cinema. There’s wonderful countryside in the area, with the renowned Camel Trail passing through the town, and the nearby town of Padstow, with its harbour, pastel-washed medieval houses and celebrated restaurants is well worth exploring. Within driving distance is the UK surfing capital of Newquay, with over 11 miles of golden sandy beaches. Polzeath is an excellent base for exploring this part of Cornwall.

Angela
only issue we had was the TV in the lounge stopped working on our 1st night and was replaced on our last night, but we were just unlucky and there was a separate TV to use in the dining room.

Would definitely recommend. Our only feedback would be: It would be handy to have a lighter hoover that is easier to use (I think it's not working properly either), somewhere to hang / rinse wetsuits outside and wood flooring in the hall to help keep it cleaner.
