    “Wonderful property in a great location.”

    Real home from home. We really enjoyed our 3 week stay in this lovely, beautifully renovated shepherds hut. It was equipped with everything one needs, cooking was comfortable and there is also a new and quiet fridge in the hut. The property is located in a quiet setting with easy access to the Coast Path and Polzeath, Rock, Padstow.... Patsy, the owner, was the best host we have ever met, so helpful, kind and very pleasant. We will miss the hut and Pasty and we will be back in summer!

    Thank you for your kind comments, after your stay in Dot May, I only wish the weather had been kinder but it didn’t seem to stop your long enjoyable wildlife walks. I look forward so much to welcoming you back to Dot May and Cornwall in the future. Patsy Property Owner

About the location

POLZEATH

Wadebridge 7.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles.

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.
