Excellent cottage very clean well equipped and has been recently updated with a lovely new kitchen anď well decorated. Great location about 30 minutes walk to Padstow Harbour but between November and March the car park is 4 for all day so no need to walk.

What a lovely cottage with such a convenient location! We absolutely loved our stay and would gladly stay again. Super clean and comfortable and only a couple mins to Padstow town center. Sarah was also very kind and attentive when we needed to reach out. Be aware that you must bring your own sheets and towels, and amenities such as trash bags and hand soap are not included. However, Tesco is a 1 min drive away, so you can get all you need there.Thank you Sarah!

Waiting for Boardies.

Really good for a place while kids are at boardmasters. Nice garden and well provisioned property. 20 minute walk to Padstow has some walking in a busy road and its 20 going in downhill but 30 coming back uphill. An icecream helps there. House itself has everything you need and nearby Trevonne bay is great for a swim, especially if you walk along the footpath to the little pool thats great for a dip when the tides correct. Enjiyed it. Its north Cornwall so expect bigger waves.

Perfect Pad

We've had a great few days at 'the Pad' in Padstow , thank- you Sarah.... On arrival we were impressed with the tranquil setting and the secure walled garden was perfect for our dog, this was his first break away from home and he settled straight away. The cleanliness of the cottage was excellent and everything maintained immaculately with everything you could possibly need, including cleaning products, Wi fi connection, and the all important phone charger in case you forgot to take your own ! The weather was great for April and allowed for exploring the Cornish coastline. Padstow is well worth a visit with it's harbour, shops and restaurant's, and very dog friendly. We visited Port Isaac and enjoyed walks on the beach at Trevone. We will certainly be returning to this beautiful location, our break was short but very relaxing, highly recommended.

A lovely getaway

My family have just spent 4 nights at the Pad and we had such a lovely time. It’s in a quiet location with a spacious but enclosed outside area perfect for children and dogs. We found the walk to and from town slightly tricky with a toddler as there is no pavement for the first part of the way, but the road is quiet so it wasn’t too much of an issue. The walk back is uphill and took us about 20 minutes (or 15 minutes without the toddler!). The Pad had all of the amenities we needed with lovely comfortable beds and a decent shower. If we ever visit Padstow again we will definitely book to stay here.

Perfect March break!

Our group were staying here and at other Meadow Court properties on our Cornish golf tour. The accommodation was just as described and ideal for us. Very comfortable, and very easy to get around to golf in the day and Padstow in the evening

Great Small Cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this small but perfectly formed properly. There was a small walled garden for the dog and all the amenities you needed for a break away. It was 3 minutes drive to Padstow and 10 minutes drive from a host of beaches. It was clean and a great base to be in. There are neighbouring houses but couldn’t hear a thing. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

I came to the Pad with my girlfriend for a surprise birthday present and she was very pleased with our stay. We both loved our time in Padstow and had everything we needed in the property. It was very cosy and we will be recommending it to friends and family.
