Amazing views from this property. You can walk in to Padstow from this property. Mattress in main bedroom is quite comfortable en-suite bathroom is a tight squeeze but amazing property and I would definitely look to book this property again.

This was the 2nd year that we stayed in Avocets. It was just as lovely as last year. A short walk into Padstow and the many restaurants. We were lucky with the weather so could really enjoy the view over the estuary.

Excellent location with great access to the Camel Trail and only a short walk into the town. Beds comfortable with very good linen. Great to have access to the garage to keep bikes safe and dry. Equipment probably the best we have had at a holiday property. Great meals at Rojanos and Rick Stein's fish and chips but very disappointing for two of us Read moreat The Mariner's in Rock - the Cote de Bouffe was expensive and far too fatty! My daughter and husband had a fabulous meal at No6 (special treat). Camel Valley Winery a great place to visit and have their tour which includes a "flight" of their sumptuous wines. Granddaughter loved the lobster hatchery and witnessed a release at Gaverne bay. Dolphin watch was a great success - lots of dolphins and a few calves. Trevose golf club was brilliant. Definitely recommend this property and will no doubt return. Hide

We had a wonderful week at Avocets. The property has everything we needed and was beautifully clean and well positioned. Although the weather wasn't brilliant in early March we did go on quite a few walks, we took our bikes and rode the Camel Trail and had amazing food at Rick Steins Seafood Restaurant and most particularly, at Paul Ainsworth's NRead moreo. 6 restaurant which was truly amazing! We have booked again for next year already. Hide
