Pack up the kids, dogs, and all your beach essentials, and head to this delightful coastal retreat for the ultimate seaside getaway. Nestled in a peaceful, traffic-free corner on the edge of Padstow, yet just a short stroll from the town’s centre, Cowslip Cottage is the perfect spot for a family or pet-friendly escape. The cottage features two inviting bedrooms: a serene king with a luxurious Hypnos mattress and a cosy twin room. Outside, you’ll find a private enclosed terrace, complete with a BBQ, ideal for al fresco dining.

Bright and airy, this charming home is designed with comfort in mind. The open-plan lounge and dining area provide ample space to unwind with a film on the Smart TV, enjoy music, or engage in a friendly game night. The fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need to prepare meals, plus a Nespresso coffee machine for those all-important morning coffees. There’s also a convenient boot room for coats and shoes, which doubles as a utility room on the ground floor. Upstairs, the family bathroom and two tastefully decorated bedrooms await, both with Smart TVs and attractive artwork. Outside, the enclosed terrace offers a secure space for your furry friends to roam while you fire up the BBQ and enjoy drinks under the sun.

Just half a mile from the working port, you can watch fresh catches being brought in, explore bustling pubs and eateries, or indulge in Padstow’s renowned food scene, ranging from casual fish and chips to world-class Michelin-starred restaurants. Hop on a sea life safari or book a fishing trip to explore the local wildlife. Padstow’s beaches offer a perfect mix of surfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and sunbathing. For a peaceful walk or bike ride, enjoy the Camel Trail – an 18-mile route through breath-taking countryside, reaching Wenfordbridge via Wadebridge and Bodmin.

A real home from home - comfortable bed and pillow which is always a measure of a good property for me. Great location at the top of Padstow. Convenient for Tesco just around the corner

The cottage is comfortable, clean and very well equipped. There were many thoughtful touches, not least for our dog. It is located on the edge of Padstow, but this suited us very well, as it was easy to take our dog out to nearby fields. The centre of Padstow is only 10 minutes walk away.

Lovely cottage good levels of equipment. Only downsides were the steps from the carpark then steps up to the cottage, awkward for people with mobility problems . Also a shower above the bath could do with a grab rail. Other than that a comfortable stay. Nice and quiet location.
