The compact kitchen is in cottage style, communicating with the snug lounge where you can relax by the wood burner. Linger over coffee on the veranda, or plan tomorrow's adventures in the light, airy sitting room. Bring home fresh locally-caught fish from Padstow, then sizzle up a delicious BBQ feast.
