Polventon House is a grade II listed private house overlooking Mother Ivey's Bay near Padstow in Cornwall, England.

It was built in the International Style on a clifftop in 1936 for R.H. Stein,[1] father of English celebrity chef Rick Stein. Rick Stein spent the summers of his childhood in the house,[2] which he visited in some of his TV series, such as Rick Stein's Cornwall.
