Head to this holiday home near Little Petherick and enjoy the best of the Cornish countryside and coast. Up to four people can stay at the attractive, rural abode, which also welcomes a pair of delightful dogs. Watch their tails wag as they bound across the three-acre, shared paddock that they are welcome to use, and which sits within the grounds. This two-bedroom, single-storey cottage in North Cornwall is just 2 miles from Padstow, with its access to different beaches and coves, and 12 miles from Newquay, with its many attractions.

Open the door on to this bright, inviting holiday property and find yourselves in a gorgeous, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner that will quickly become the heart of the home. Set a real log fire in the lounge, choose a film on the Smart TV and play your music through the Amazon Echo. Make a fresh cup of coffee in the machine or prepare dinner in the range-style oven then serve up at the dining table. At the end of each fun-filled day, make your way through to either the king-size bedroom, which has an en-suite bathroom and doors on to the garden, or the twin. There is also a family shower room. Take a cup of tea out into the shared grounds to enjoy as you watch the children and pups chase about. There is parking for two cars at the cottage.

Head into Padstow to dine out on delicious sea food and other local produce. Swim here, take part in water sports or decide to take the ferry over to the renowned village of Rock, which tends to attract celebrity visitors. Pick up the 18-mile Camel Trail, just over 1 mile from the cottage, to walk or cycle along the largely traffic-free route that runs along a disused railway line.

A tranquil, peaceful cottage, perfect for us and our two Westies to enjoy our holiday. The location is ideal being close to such fabulous beaches and cliff top walks. Having the field for the dogs to run around in was great with the bonus of a picnic table. We will recommend this cottage to friends who, like us, want a quiet and comfortable haven.

Only things I would like to raise is lack of window in main bedroom, only French doors which you wouldnt leave open on a hot night as open on to shared driveway. No where to sit outside and enjoy the evening sun. No personal outside space and field to far away for someone with limited mobility. Only seating outside was bistro table and two chairs oRead moren what is a shared driveway. Hide

We had a lovely stay in Otters Retreat. The location was quiet & great for walking, with easy access by car to various parts of Cornwall and some great beaches all of 20 minutes drive away. Parking at the cottage was really good and the meadow to sit in of an afternoon in the waning sunlight while the dog mooched was nearly as good as having your oRead morewn enclosed garden. I feel it was a little expensive, but all in all we were comfortable, had a great holiday and I would consider using it again. Hide

A tastefully decorated cottage with lots of local touches. A good location for exploring the surrounding area of Padstow and beyond. Didnt use paddock as grass rather long and damp when we were there. Instead for a quick short walk we went up the lane by the property. A bid advantage is the parking which can be difficult nearer the villages. PlentyRead more of local inns for eating not just Padstow. We particularly liked Rock the beach and the coffee shop there. Also can get a ferry across to Padstow. Hide
