Morning mist lifts slowly off the fields around Chapel Amble, and you wake in a proper timber chalet with the kind of stillness only mid-Cornwall can offer.

This is a spot for couples wanting a few off-grid days without giving up comfort entirely, or small families after a base near the Camel Trail and the north coast beaches. The chalets and pods have a farm-cottage feel — solid walls, proper beds, a bit more shelter than canvas when the Atlantic weather rolls in. There's wifi if you need it, so you're not completely cut off, and dogs are welcome by arrangement, which matters if you're planning walks along the estuary or up to Polzeath.

It's a quiet, tucked-away kind of place — no fancy facilities block, just simple accommodation that does the job. Check about campfires when you arrive; sometimes they're allowed, sometimes not, depending on conditions. The vibe's low-key and rural, with the working farmland around you and the coast a short drive away when you want it.

Lundy Bay and Port Quin circular walk near Pentire, North Cornwall

Combines dramatic clifftop paths with sheltered coves along the North Cornwall coast, passing the striking ruins of Doyden Castle. Moderate terrain with several steep sections and uneven steps, making it challenging for buggies and tiring for small children under 5. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock and clifftops.
