South facing towards Pentire Head: Doyden House has a curious history. Built by a former prison governor at the beginning of the twentieth century, he chose the location for its panoramic views across Port Quin Bay, having spotted it from a fishing boat. Whilst the popular surfing beach of Polzeath is nearby, with all its gregarious pleasures, Doyden House enjoys a wonderfully secluded location: for uninterrupted views of the ocean and immediate access to the coast path, look no further. The house bought by the Trust in 1956 now comprises four comfortable apartments, arranged over two floors, all tastefully furnished and with magnificent sea views. The grassy area around the house is perfect for soaking up the sun and the views on summer days, but the real fires in each of the apartments living rooms will add a warm and comforting touch on those days when the Atlantic storms lash the coast. The rockpools and beach in the inlet of Port Quin are just a few minutes walk away.
