Little Penty is a small, terraced, fisherman's cottage tucked away in a
little courtyard in the centre of Padstow,
a short walk from the quay but so well hidden you would hardly know it
existed. Despite its convenient central location the courtyard is quiet
and an ideal place to unwind. This cosy, comfortable cottage is full of
character and charm and, although basic in parts, has everything you need
for a relaxing break. Padstow is an historic fishing port situated on the
West side of the river Camel estuary in North Cornwall. The picturesque
town with a jumble of narrow alleys and streets leading down to the
harbour has medieval buildings and up-to-the-minute art galleries as well
as many fine restaurants and tea shops. There are beaches within walking
distance in the estuary and a short drive along the coast takes you to a
number of other super beaches many of which are suitable for surfing.
Padstow is ideally placed for exploring Cornwall - Tate St Ives is only an
hour's drive and the Eden Project is even closer.
