This property has been converted from part of the 1876 grade II listed
building which was once the school for the town. The conversion has been
sympathetically achieved to retain much of the original stone walls,
gothic arched windows and vaulted ceilings, which give the building its
character. Primrose House is ideally located just a two minute walk from
the harbour and Padstow's many recommended restaurants. The town is now
familiar to many from Rick Stein's seafood cookery programmes, but was a
well-kept secret for many years before. The historic fishing port remains
largely unspoilt and the townspeople like to keep it that way. Within easy
striking distance are magnificent walks along the coastal footpaths and
just a few miles down the coast are some of the finest beaches in
Cornwall; a number absolutely ideal for surfing the rolling Atlantic
breakers. There are championship golf links at Trevose and St. Enodoc; a
passenger ferry and water taxi runs across the estuary to Rock. The route
of the old railway track to Bodmin is now a popular trail for cyclists and
walkers and offers some wonderful scenery along the way.
