Located in the heart
of the old town this delightful cottage is full of character and charm.
Church Lane is a quiet spot but only a minute’s
walk from the harbour and restaurants which makes this cottage an ideal
retreat at any time of the year. The beams, slate floor, nooks and
crannies and steep winding stairs contribute to its appeal but beware -
the ultra steep stairs to the bathroom are an adventure in themselves!
Padstow is similarly full of quirky character with beautiful unspoilt
harbour and a maze of picturesque narrow streets. Within easy striking
distance are a number of gorgeous sandy beaches great for families or
surfing and coastal footpaths with outstanding views. The Eden Project is
within a half hour drive and Tate St Ives is 1 hour away.
