Set back from the rugged coastline, they have far reaching country views in a very quiet secluded spot, looking down the valley, disturbed only by the sound of their animals. Enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep with an uninterrupted panoramic sky, perfect for star gazing.

The nearest beach – Porthcothan, only a 10 minute walk away, is a delightful little bay, great for bathing, surfing and snorkeling.  Sand dunes and rock pools all combine to make it an idyllic place for both families and couples.  MacDonald’s Farm are situated in the best area to explore the North Coast and local hot spots of Padstow and Newquay. They also have a bus stop to take you either way along the coast.

They welcome both families and couples looking for a chilled, relaxing holiday – small groups are allowed but please call to confirm before booking as it is a quiet family-run site.  Sleep under the Cornish stars, eat some of the best local food in the wonderful farm garden, meet the animals, ride a pony or enjoy a drink or two from their Sundowner Bar. Live music events are also held here on a regular basis during the summer months.
