Key Features
- Atmosphere
In a peaceful location at the end of a quiet no-through lane in Trevone, San Marcos has recently been refurbished and now offers stunning sea views from the new upstairs living room and balcony. The private garden has a Mediterranean feel with coastal plants, outdoor dining and a self-contained garden room where the youngsters in the party can hang out.
Four well-appointed bedrooms, two with en suites, plus a further two bathrooms ensures that everyone has their own space to relax and refresh. San Marcos is a wonderful family home away from home in a fantastic coastal location.
- Kitchen, dining and living
The kitchen, with funky azure blue cabinets, is a chef’s delight with an array of appliances to make holiday cooking and eating easy including a full size dishwasher, double oven, Nespresso machine and wine cooler. The kitchen island with a built in hob is a great spot to chat and have a glass of wine while cooking dinner. There is also a small 4 seater table in the room, perfect for the kids or a quick lunch.
The more formal dining space is off the second downstairs living room. A skylight bathes the area in sunshine and on warmer days, throw open the French windows and let in the cooling sea breeze.
Off the dining room, a second sitting room overlooks the back garden and is furnished with a deep navy velvet corner sofa and wall mounted smart TV. In winter, a modern wood burner in the corner makes this a cosy place to curl up to watch tv or read a book.
The main living area is now upstairs and is the jewel in San Marcos’ crown. A huge velvety soft teal sofa is carefully positioned to enjoy the view over sea in the distance, while holiday movie nights are a must on the wall mounted TV with soundbar. On balmy summer nights, head out to the balcony to watch the sun go down with a glass of something chilled, made all the more easy with the handy sink and wine cooler in the corner.

To the side of the garage there is a hot shower, ideal for washing down and rinsing the wetsuits after a day at the beach.
- Nearby
From San Marcos, Trevone and all its facilities are within easy reach. The sandy beach is popular with many nooks and crannies to sunbathe, as well as a broad expanse of sand for playing games. The bathing is safe and protected, but also good for surfing, particularly for beginners. Surfboards can be bought or rented at the beach shop. Right alongside the sandy beach is Newtrain beach, also known as the rocky beach. Great for exploring, rock pooling, and for protected swimming in the natural swimming pool. The two contrasting beaches provide great fun for children and adults alike! The beaches can be walked to in less than 10 minutes by road, or alternatively via a public footpath which you can reach by heading down Dobbin Lane and turning left before The Well Parc Hotel; this will take you to the coast path but will take a little longer to walk to than by road.
Trevone Beach Shop and café is great, they sell all the surfing equipment you could need and do great breakfasts and pizza nights! The village shop further back from the beach is open 7 days, with quality bread and pasties, as well as other staple supplies. The Well Parc provides an opportunity for lunchtime or evening drinks, and is located just down the road from San Marcos. The village has a great sense of community, one of which guests immediately feel a part.
Padstow is less than 5 minutes by car, with its historic harbour, special and individual shops and boutiques, as well as a huge range of restaurants and cafes, led of course by Rick Stein’s Seafood restaurant, bistro, café, and wonderful ‘fish and chip’ shop. Padstow Farm Shop, just outside Padstow itself, is great for local meat and vegetables and can be accessed by the ‘back lane’ out of Trevone – by car or by foot. Seafood can be bought from the atmospheric quay at Padstow.
The coast path is easily accessed – and walking is fantastic in both directions: to Padstow in under an hour, or across to Harlyn and Trevose Head.

We had a really lovely stay at San Marcos, it was just the break we needed after a difficult year. We have stayed in Raintree houses before and everything has always been excellent and seamless.
