About this property

Stepper Point is a perfectly placed property, resting above Polzeath beach, and is a frontline, three-storey holiday home with one of the best views of Polzeath beach and beyond on the North Cornwall coast. Styled and finished with the seaside in mind, Stepper Point has everything you need to enjoy life on Cornish time. Sleeping eight guests in four bedrooms, plus your four-legged companion, this self-catering property is the ideal getaway for all the family or a large group of friends. This townhouse-style holiday home is the perfect base for beach enthusiasts; finished to a high standard and boasting high quality furnishings, as well as being an easy distance from the local beach. The first floor is the main social hub with a wood burner taking centre stage amongst colourful interiors inspired by the ocean. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you could need to cook up a storm with stunning sea and coastal views as a backdrop, or alternatively dine alfresco and relax on the decking to the rear of the property for that ultimate beachside feel. This open-plan living space is a great spot to spend quality time together with its sociable layout and bifold doors that extend the living spaces onto the balcony, a simply dreamy spot to recline in with a tipple in hand. Enjoy long lie-ins at Stepper Point with four beautifully decorated bedrooms spread over the ground and second floor. Wake up to the sounds of the coast from the master bedroom with a Juliet balcony where you can take in those uninterrupted coastal views. A further super-king-size en-suite bedroom is found on the second floor with two twin bedrooms on the ground floor. Guests can enjoy over an acre of communal gardens and woodland at Pinewood with a stepped footpath that leads directly into the Coronation Gardens that ends alongside Polzeath Beach. From your doorstep, take a short stroll into the centre of Polzeath, widely known for its vast expanse of sand, surfing and scenic coastal walks on the South West Coast Path. A choice of shops and surf hire hubs including clothing stores, a local grocery store, cafés, and seaside restaurants are all within close proximity, making Stepper Point the perfect base to explore all that Polzeath has to offer. No matter what surfing experience you have, Polzeath has it covered with surf hire and instructors who can guide you from beginner to advanced levels for those wanting to further improve their skills. For more on the water activities, take a short ride to Rock and Daymer Bay with ideal conditions for sailing, water skiing, wind surfing and kite surfing. Like Polzeath, the surrounding bays also host a wealth of restaurants and pubs including The Mariners in Rock, Restaurant Nathan Outlaw in Port Isaac and Paul Ainsworth at No.6 in Padstow for that special holiday evening out to remember. Stepper Point is a simply incredible base for your next Cornish adventure.

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.

    Perfect location. Spectacular views. John bray never fails us and we are looking forward to our next visit in Easter 2026. We have stayed in three John Bray properties in recent years in polzeath and every one has been totally different but equally high quality making it a joy to look forward to our next visit to find our next perfect holiday house.

    The house itself is lovely, but the sofa is dirty and so uncomfortable to sit on. The work tops in the kitchen wasn’t very clean and I had to wipe over them. The balcony has all green mould, which should have been cleaned or painted and new table’s as they are rusty. The garden furniture on the terrace hadn’t even been put in place round the table. If I had paid budget prices I would expect it, but I didn’t, so would expect everything to be pristine. Regardless of these disappointing issues, we still had a fabulous week and the property was in an excellent position.
