Camel Quarry House

Description

Inside

The house itself is a radically bold and beautiful eco building made from slate, wood, concrete and glass. It was designed by eminent architects Mclean Quinlan and features a box-like open plan top floor that gives uninterrupted views across the Camel Estuary from the sitting room/dining room area with open fire. The modern furniture is oversized and deeply comfortable. The exquisite design incorporates a Tom Dixon candelabra and a Sophie Ryder sculpture.

Bedrooms

6 spacious bedrooms, each with their own stunning view and en suite bathroom. 4 have king size beds, the other 2 can be arranged to suit your party.

Outside

You will enjoy the spectacular views from the 2nd floor terrace which houses a BBQ and table to seat 20 people. The imaginative and magical garden is every bit as well-planned as the house, with a luxurious cedar hot tub overlooking views of the Camel estuary and sunsets over Padstow and  a stylish fire pit BBQ. It was designed by Mary Reynolds (who won the coveted Gold Medal for her ‘Celtic garden’ at the Chelsea Flower Show 2002). Also look out for the Myburgh Designs swinging pumpkin seat! A mooring can also be found should you want to bring your own boat.

Things to Do

Peppered with sandy beaches popular amongst the surfing communities, this stunning part of Cornwall is ripe for exploration. Padstow is a haven for holidaymakers, offering a wide range of attractions, shops and restaurants (including Rick Stein’s famous seafood restaurant).

A long drive will  take you through 5 fields. If coastal walks are more your thing, you’ll be seduced by the wild, romantic coastline surrounding Wadebridge. The delightful village of Port Isaac is also worth a visit – home to Doc Martin and the Fisherman’s Friends.

Of course, you’ll want to treat yourselves to a spot of lunch or dinner every now and again, and luckily you’ll have plenty of great restaurants to choose from! Padstow offers a multitude of great places to eat including Rick Stein’s Sea Food restaurant, Paul Ainsworth’s Number 6, and Margot’s Bistro. Port Isaac also features the Outlaw’s Bistro and The Mote – both great pit-stops on coastal walks.
