Tucked away in the sought-after village of Harlyn Bay, Tater Du is perfect for family beach holidays. Designed to reflect the nearby coastline, the interiors are light, airy and spacious, while the floor-to-ceiling windows offer glimpses of crashing waves in the distance.
Welcoming dogs and just a few minutes' walk from the expansive Harlyn Bay Beach, its wood-clad facade and natural stone detailing are nothing short of spectacular. Inside, the ground floor features four beautifully designed bedrooms, two luxurious en-suites and a sleek family bathroom. Climbing the stairs, you'll find the Scandi-inspired kitchen, dining and living area blend seamlessly into one large sociable space. Leading out onto the elevated terrace, enjoy views over the garden and glimpses out to sea.
Modern coastal interiors are echoed throughout the house, with beautiful seascape prints, natural wood furnishings and boho touches. Relax on the sumptuous sofa with a glass of fizz in hand, or when the evenings turn cooler, stoke the wood burner and sink into a candy striped armchair with a book or rounds of cards.
The garden provides a peaceful spot for enjoying the warmer weather, while the outdoor dining table is ideal for gathering everyone together for an al fresco supper on balmy summer evenings. Plunge into the bubbling hot tub for a moment of relaxation as the stars twinkle above.
Positioned amongst Cornwall’s Seven Bays, a stay at Tater Du allows you to explore some of the county’s prettiest beaches or head out on the water for an action-packed break. Hit the waves with Harlyn Surf School before wandering the bustling streets of Padstow, which is just 10 minutes away by car. When the sun is shining, amble along the headland in either direction, where tempting stop-offs like the Trevone Beach Café await.

Master Bedroom
Facing onto the garden, the spacious master bedroom offers a super king bed and floor-to-ceiling bi-fold doors, blending the indoor and outdoor spaces together with ease. Thanks to its beautiful peach tones and surf-inspired prints, this room is a lovely place to relax, and the en-suite bathroom's waterfall shower makes for an easy night-time routine after evenings in the hot tub.
Bedroom Two
A candy striped headboard makes this bedroom instantly striking, while the soft green interior touches and natural wood furnishings create a truly homely space. The room includes a sumptuous super king bed plus a luxurious en-suite featuring an invigorating waterfall shower. In the summer months, peel open the bi-fold doors as you get ready for the day, before heading out into the garden for a coffee in the sunshine.

Local Area
Harlyn Bay
Beaches and watersports
Extremely popular for surfing, the family friendly beach at Harlyn Bay is a haven for watersports enthusiasts of all abilities. Take to the waves with SUP or coasteering sessions with the fantastic team at Harlyn Surf School or explore a little further afield with a walk around the Seven Bays. Other nearby beaches include the sheltered cove of Trevone and the surrounding sandy bays of Constantine, Treyarnon and Porthcothan. Slightly further afield in Polzeath you can find George's Surf School. Led by experienced tutors, they offer both private and immersive lessons for surfers of all abilities.
Food and drink
Holidays here aren't complete without lunch or dinner at The Pig, which serves a great range of dishes from its 25-mile menu, sourced within the South West. Five minutes outside of Harlyn Bay is Rafferty’s – a great lunchtime spot for tapas and light bites. While just down the road in Padstow, you’ll find Paul Ainsworth’s Number 6 and the lovely St Petroc’s Bistro. Rick Stein’s Padstow Seafood School will teach you how to forage for your supper, while exploring the world of Cornish wines at Camel Valley or Trevibban Mill comes highly recommended for finding your new favourite tipple. There’s a tempting array of local pubs nearby too, including The Cornish Arms in St Merryn.
Outdoor pursuits
Walkers should join the coast path from Harlyn Bay Beach and head north east towards Trevone. If you’re feeling adventurous, continue to Bedruthan Steps before retreating to Carnewas Tearooms for a jam-first cream tea. Stepper Point near Padstow affords spectacular coastal views, with the nearby Doom Bar and Camel Estuary well worth a visit too. Harlyn is surrounded by great golf courses, from Trevose nearby to St Enodoc less than 30 minutes away. For cyclists, the Camel Trail is a flat 18 mile stretch with The Snail’s Pace Café (perfect for lunch) halfway.
Activities for children
A real children’s playground, Harlyn and its surrounding areas have plenty to keep little ones entertained. Pull on your wellies and set off for a day out at Dairyland Farm World, let the kids run riot at Camel Creek Adventure Park or take to the seas and embrace the Cornish outdoors with a wildlife safari. With St Eval go-karting tracks nearby, and zip wire experiences for the thrill-seekers, you’ll never run out of entertaining options.
Time for pampering
Only a short drive away, you’ll find the award-winning Cowshed Spa in Trebetherick. Enjoy a glass of champagne as you indulge in the exclusive beauty treatments, tried and tested at Babington House in Somerset. The renowned Scarlet Spa sits further along the coast in Mawgan Porth, home to cliff top hot tubs and memorable ocean views. Alternatively, The Headland in Newquay provides a lovely setting to relax and unwind with a dip in the pool or an indulgent massage.
Festivals and events
Padstow’s annual Christmas Festival is the perfect way to kick off the festive season. Usually held at the beginning of December, this popular fishing village comes alive with an array of tastes, smells, sounds and unique gifts. The day is filled with celebrity chefs, cooking demonstrations, local produce and a lively Santa fun run. Another big event in Padstow’s calendar, May Day sees the town come alive with flags, flowers, greenery and maypoles.
