Description

Mulberry is a 3 bed Eco-style beach house sleeping 6 in 3 bedrooms. Inside is a modern and spacious home with open plan living and dining area, kitchen, landscaped gardens and decking to the front, plus an enclosed patio to the rear. The house is very well equipped including some home comforts to include books, DVDs, board games and lovely art on the walls. We want it to be your home from home.

Located a 5 minute walk away from the village of Porthtowan, with its blue flag beach and coastal walks, local amenities include beach side cafes and pubs, a convenience shop and children's playground.

Mulberry is part of the holiday community of Towan Valley with its 28 houses and there are always new people to meet here. Located at the top of the development it is next to the field where cows graze and its paved patio adds a great private area for barbecues or children's play.
Come rain or shine, warm or cold, you can spend hours on the beach surfing, rock-pooling, sand-castling, dog-walking, scrambling or generally having fun. When it's wet watch the waves from The Blue Bar! You can eat fresh fish caught locally, and enjoy trying out so many local foodie haunts all within close proximity to the house. Located equidistance from St. Ives and Newquay, Mulberry is perfectly placed to discover the best of Cornwall.

There is a seasonal dog ban on Porthtowan beach, You CAN take you dog on the beach between 1st October and 14th May. From 15th May until 30th September dogs are NOT permitted on the beach between 10am and 6pm. There are plenty of beaches locally which accept dogs all year round.

Furthermore in the village itself, there is a grassy/sandy area before hitting the beach proper which is fab for dogs.
The back patio is enclosed, however the height of the wall is not overly tall, approx 1m. If you look at the photo on the gallery section you can get a feel of the height.

Local Area
There is so much to discover in the local area which includes Truro, St. Agnes, St. Ives, Newquay and Penzance. The delights of Falmouth on the south coast area easily accessible. Further afield, St Michaels Mount, the cliff-edge Minnack theatre, or the Eden project are all easily visited within a day.

Mining is very much part of the Cornish heritage and there are lots of places to visit to learn more about the tin mines, which includes the opportunity to go down an old working tin mine!

Porthtowan beach is perfect for surfing and body boarding. There is a surf school in the village if you wanted to perfect your technique. Further afield you can do lots of water based activities including sea kayaking, coasteering and stand up paddle boarding.

There are a number of amazing beaches within a short drive, plenty of national trust houses and gardens to explore.
We never tire of discovering the local area, there is just so much to see and do. In the house, you will find a folder with lots of information on things to do and places to visit.
