Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 2 - Tintagel (2mls SE), Cornwall

Enviably located just a few miles away from the historic village of Tintagel, this charming single-storey cottage provides the perfect base for exploring the Atlantic coast and all that North Cornwall has to offer with ease. And at the end of the day, a cosy wood burner and a comfortable bed are always waiting for you. With its stylish open-plan layout, everything you need is at your fingertips in this attractive property.

Every dinner prepared in the well-equipped kitchen is sure to be a success and can be enjoyed around the convenient dining table. Your evening's entertainment is sorted – just sink into the sofas in the living area, put your feet up in front of the wood burner, and pop the TV/DVD on. A good night's sleep is guaranteed in the serene king-size bedroom, and the cottage also benefits from a handy bathroom with a bath and WC.

Outside, there is a small patio area with a bench, and guests have access to a shared 5-acre paddock with pretty scenery. Just 3 miles away from the accommodation, set high on the cliffs of North Cornwall, lies the famous Tintagel, known for its breathtaking views, intriguing Arthurian legends, and a new 60-metre footbridge connecting the mainland to the island on which the spectacular Tintagel Castle can be found. Merlin's Cave back down on sea level is also worth a visit.

Elsewhere, if beaches are more your thing, don't miss out on the golden sands and natural caves of Trebarwith Strand (2.5 miles). Whilst in the area, there's plenty of traditional Cornish fishing ports to enjoy, such as Boscastle (5.5 miles) and Port Isaac (9 miles) – where TV's Doc Martin was filmed!
