This delightful cottage in the heart of historic Padstow is a hidden gem. Spacious and beautifully furnished, it sits in a secluded spot at the end of a private courtyard, just a 0.5-mile walk from the colourful waterfront. The property sleeps four guests and two canine pals are also welcome. Ideal for a family or friends sharing, this inviting holiday home is perfectly placed for exploring the delights of picturesque Padstow and the glorious North Cornwall coast. Shops, cafes and renowned seafood restaurants are a short stroll away, with gorgeous golden beaches a few miles distant.

White walls, pale flooring and a row of windows create a light and bright space in the cottage lounge/diner, furnished with comfortable sofas in neutral tones. Ceiling beams add a traditional touch. The well-planned kitchen overlooks a courtyard patio and there is a sleek ground-floor shower room. An open-plan staircase leads upstairs where you’ll find a WC and three charming bedrooms with a lovely seaside vibe: a double and two singles.

Perfect size cottage with 2 toilets and 3 bedrooms. Washing machine and dish washer also a bonus. Very peaceful despite central location. 2 sets of keys which were useful.

Great Cottage, owners very thoughtful with the arrival gifts, never had such a lovely selection, even a goody bag for the dog! Superb location right in the middle of Padstow and yet not noisy. The seating area with heater and lighting was lovely to sit under with a glass of wine. 10 out of 10.

Very accommodating for dogs, and practical as while asking that dogs are kept down stairs a baby gate is provided to enable you to do this. Not something that we have experienced before and found really helpful. The hose outside also provides warm water to allow you to shower you pups in comfort, very thoughtful and our boys definitely appreciated Read moreit, and their welcome packs! Hide

Beautifully decorated well equipped cottage hideaway in the centre of buzzing Padstow. We spent a very happy Christmas at Captains Cottage, tasteful festive decorations and a wonderful welcome pack filled with local produce greeted us, even a little treat for our dog. Quality bedding, comfy beds and sofas, a well equipped kitchen and a fantastiRead morec power shower all made for a wonderful break away. The courtyard would be a bonus in the summer months, we did manage a couple of morning coffees outside in the weak but welcome winter sunshine. All communication with the owners was friendly and informative, we felt very well cared for. Thankyou. Hide
