Gwel Teg, Polzeath

Perched on the spectacular North Cornwall coast near Polzeath, Gwel Teg is a tranquil coastal retreat designed to make the most of its breathtaking setting. With sweeping sea views from most rooms, the interiors are calm, contemporary, and deeply connected to the surrounding landscape.
Natural materials — including locally sourced stone, warm oak, and soft linens — are paired with a muted coastal palette to create a sense of warmth and relaxed sophistication.

The kitchen, designed and installed by a local kitchen company, combines craftsmanship with contemporary functionality. Its bespoke cabinetry and subtle finishes reflect the tones of the surrounding cliffs and sands, enhancing the home’s natural harmony with its coastal environment.

The bathrooms take inspiration from the shoreline, where organic textures and gentle hues evoke a soothing, spa-like calm. Expansive glazing blurs the boundary between indoors and out, framing panoramic sea views and allowing the ever-changing Cornish light to flood the interiors.

Whether soaking in the freestanding bath with the ocean beyond or enjoying morning coffee on the terrace overlooking the bay, every space in Gwel Teg is designed to celebrate the serenity and beauty of coastal living.
