Best for: Bike Rides and Estuary Views
12 Samphire, Padstow

Sleeps 4
Now we love the the traffic-free Camel Trail that wends from Padstow to Bodmin Moor, but in summer our favourite cycle route can get quite congested. So New Year is the perfect time to hop on your bike and follow its 18 miles from the estuary to the moors, while it’s crowd-free and you’re busy making promises about being a fitter and healthier you for the coming year. Stay in this gorgeous apartment and you’ll wake up to panoramic views of the twinkling estuary, just begging you to get out of your four-posted bed and pedal out into the scenery.

Boslowen, Trevone

Sleeps 9
After the excess of Christmas, it’s time to get the step count in on wild winter coastal walks, burn the fat with bracing sea pool dips, and graze on the last of the festive fare while spending quality time together. Pile the dogs, friends and family into this spacious home close to Trevone Bay, where you can step out of bed onto underfloor heating, take brisk walks along the dramatic South West Coast Path, dip in the Trevone tidal pool, and gather around the large dining table or woodburner to make New Year’s memories to last a lifetime.

Best for: New Year Beside the Beach
3 Pilot Cottages, Hawkers Cove

Sleeps 6
If you pad west out of Padstow, it’s not long until you meet the sugar-white sands of Hawkers Cove – a picture-postcard setting for kite flying, sea dipping and picnicking in the dunes (yes, even on a winter’s day). Which is why it really is one of our favourite locations for a break beside the beach, where you have all of Padstow’s attractions at your fingertips while feeling world’s away from it all. This makes it easy to dip into the New Year festivities in the harbour town, before heading home to light the fire and indulge in the comforts of this historic sea-view cottage built for the gig boat crews.

Not sure how to embrace beach life in winter? Yo-yo between golden sands, ocean dips and the warm, creature comforts of a cosy apartment seconds from the sea in Treyarnon Bay. While your wetsuit and walking boots drip-dry at the door, make yourself at home in light-flooded rooms, put your favourite music and movies on the integrated sound system, and revel in the indoor and outdoor entertainment at your fingertips. This is how to celebrate New Year in Cornwall bayside-style, just five minutes’ drive from Padstow.
