About
Discover 1 Karn Havos near the coastal village of Mawgan Porth — a calm, design-led base just moments from the beach and the South West Coast Path. Set within a contemporary development shaped by Cornwall’s landscape, Karn Havos is a striking collection of homes featuring award-winning, zero-carbon smart design, blending luxury with eco-technology and breathtaking coastal outlooks.
Inside, light-filled spaces invite you to truly unwind after days exploring the shoreline and countryside. Whether you’re planning a family escape or a couples’ retreat, Karn Havos offers an effortless, stylish stay in one of North Cornwall’s most-loved seaside spots.
In under a five-minute walk, you can be soaking up views towards the dramatic sea stacks at Bedruthan Steps — though you may be just as happy enjoying the panoramas from the comfort of this exceptional home. Designed with upside-down living to maximise sea views, 1 Karn Havos offers 2,500 square feet of coastal elegance. For the best vantage point, head upstairs to the contemporary open-plan living space, with a vaulted ceiling, expansive windows, a private balcony, and an ocean view beyond. Sink into the sumptuous sofas and, when the Cornish sun dips, settle in with the 65″ Samsung Frame Smart TV.
The modern kitchen is fully equipped with a premium suite of integrated appliances for effortless cooking, including a wine fridge and Nespresso Vertuo coffee machine. Enjoy drinks out on the glass-fronted balcony, while the large round dining table comfortably seats six for relaxed family dinners. Prefer to eat outdoors? Step straight onto the dedicated dining terrace adjacent to the kitchen — a standout spot with indulgent sea views and a generous table with bench seating.
The three beautifully appointed bedrooms are located on the ground floor. The master suite is a serene retreat, featuring a lavish king-size bed, sea views, sliding patio doors to the outside, and a private en-suite with walk-in shower. Bedroom two also benefits from an en-suite, direct outdoor access and ocean glimpses, with a zip ‘n’ link bed that can be made as a super-king or twins. The third bedroom offers flexible twin/double sleeping and sits conveniently beside the family bathroom, complete with a large bath and shower over — a blissful place for a post-adventure soak.
Outside the two front-facing bedrooms, a peaceful patio area is perfect for morning coffee and fresh Cornish air. There’s also an outdoor shower for rinsing off sandy toes, plus a surf store for beach kit. Guests will appreciate two private parking spaces, with an optional EV charger. Meaning you’re always ready to explore the best of what Cornwall has to offer.

Activities
Karn Havos is equidistant from two Cornish hotspots; just 7 miles from Newquay and Padstow so you’re in a great location to explore what Cornwall has to offer.
The closest accessible beach is Mawgan Porth, and it’s the perfect location to relax, boasting acres of soft golden sand for all age groups to enjoy and is a 30-minute walk along the coast path or five minute drive away. In contrast to the huge, rugged north Cornwall cliffs, this award-winning west-facing beach is brilliant for sandcastles, but also rewards you with spectacular all-year-round sunsets, rock pooling, body boarding and beach walking. You cannot find a more select, peaceful choice for your holiday than here, so let yourself unwind.
Two miles away you’ll find Mawgan Porth Golf Club, a stunning 18-hole, heathland course which is nestled on a hilltop affording some fabulous sea views while you line up your shot. It offers open rolling greens and challenging wind-swept holes, for all standards of player. Or if relaxation is more your game, you’re less than a mile from Bedruthan Hotel & Spa and five-star adults-only The Scarlet Spa.
If you are a nature lover, there are wonderfully scenic walks along the cliff tops here, jewelled in summer with sea pinks and gorse. The cliff geology provides a dramatic backdrop to the gentle flat of the bay, dominated by rugged rocks.
Newquay is of course renowned for its beaches, which are amazingly clean, and generally dotted with surfers (it is a surfing mecca). Nearby Watergate Bay – just three miles away – is perfect for kitesurfing and windsurfing, or try your hand at kayaking, coasteering, surf rafting and plenty of other adrenaline sports. The key towan beaches, Towan, Lusty Glaze, Tolcarne and Great Western, are all pretty sheltered and safe for swimming, too. The surfing is unmatched – Fistral Beach offers a world-class surfing experience. A trip to Pollyjoke Beach is well worth a walk. Off the beaten track, it is a beautiful little cove set away from the main activity of Newquay. In spring, the beach is overlooked by dramatic huge fields of red poppies.
Time spent in Padstow will be filled with fun and food! Every foodie in the UK knows Padstow is the place to come to experience the best fresh locally sourced ingredients and in particular, seafood! See our favourite places to eat in Padstow, here.
Celebrity chef, Rick Stein, has a number of businesses here including a cafe, a delicatessen, a bakery, a restaurant and his famous fish and chips. Rick isn’t the only move and shaker in town though and Padstow has many strings to its bow, including No.6 by Paul Ainsworth. There is a good mix of foods here too and a pasty from Malcolm Barnecutt’s bakery is just as well advised, followed by a famous Roskilly’s ice cream.
