About this property

Scarrabine Farm and Farmhouse has been in our family for over 140 years. The annexe which was converted from the old pigs house on the West facing side of the Farm house looks directly out at Port Quin bay. There is a outside seating area that is a great sun trap enjoying all day sunshine. There is a short 10 min walk from the property down to Port Quin harbour or a longer 40 min walk on the footpath to Port Isaac. The annexe is designed to be a private space with its own access and cosy interior features to make it a cool place for an active break or equally a quiet romantic retreat for two persons. We have a Friday-Friday changeover in peak holiday seasons. Three night short breaks are available outside of these times.

Scarrabine heaven

Very well equipped and cosy conversion. Great sheltered outdoor area for evening sun. Large sitting room and an excellent kitchen galley. Netflix available and good internet connection. Bed large and comfortable. We really loved this place and our hosts (and their lovely children) were very friendly and extremely helpful. Port Quin is close by and a great place to swim/explore. We really hope to be back next year!

A perfect getaway for our quiet Christmas escape.

The 2 level property was characterful, imaculate and cosy with a lovely lounge, well equipped kitchen and comfortable bed. The farm location is remote and quiet with beautiful views to the sea and our host Sam was friendly and helpful. It's a beatiful area of the Cornish Atlantic coast to explore by car and foot. Highly recommended.

A very peaceful and tranquil setting with everything we needed.

The property was perfect for a couple, ample space and amenities. It was easy to get to by car and there were lots of lovely places to visit nearby, e.g. Padstow. My wife and I love the outdoors and we would definitely stay here again. Sam and Doon, the owners, were very welcoming and we hope Doon is keeping well as she will have now given birth to their second child (Congratulations!!). Bev & John Murphy

About the host

Hosted by Sam Williams

I am Sam Williams and i run the holiday lettings at Port Quin Farm Holidays. I live on the farm with my wife Doon and our 2 sons. My Dad John and brother Mark run the farm and i help them out at busy times in the summer and for most of the Winter. I also run Cornish Coast Adventures in the summer season, which offers Sea kayaking trips and Coasteering sessions along the local coastline. i am a keen surfer and have been a crew member of the Port Isaac lifeboat for nearly ten years.

Why they chose this property

The Farmhouse has been in our family for well over 140 years and is now run along with the farm and other cottages nearby by the third and fourth generation of the Williams family.
The great thing about this little piece of Cornwall is that we are right in the middle of two great holiday locations Port Isaac and Polzeath but we are hidden away in the often undiscovered little gem that is the Port Quin so its nice and quiet and very often you can be the only one strolling down the lane for your morning swim in the harbour or your walk along the coast path!

What makes this property unique

Great sea and inland views, surrounded by our farmland and beautiful coastal scenery. Stones throw from lots of good surf. We are surrounded by our own 400 acre farm, so other than a few sheep and our other three cottages there shouldn't be any noisy neighbours. Parking at the farm is free and easy, theres also space for storing bikes and surfboards and even boats if required. Port Quin is a short walk down the road. We even have our own access to the beaches at Lundy bay through our cliff top fields. Port Isaac is just over the hill in the next valley. The Coast path is an amazing but challenging walk or you can take the inland footpath or small road for a more direct route to the village.
