About this property
This charming property, situated less than 500 metres from celebrity chef restaurants and cafes, is perfect for foodie families. Sleeping four across two peaceful bedrooms, the rustic features of this cottage offer a cosy base to return to after a day wandering along the harbour (350 metres) or further along the coast. Make a stop at stunning Trevone Bay (2 miles) before coming home and enjoying an evening tipple in the shared courtyard.
As soon as you step into the cottage, you’ll notice the superb Cornish slate floors in the kitchen/diner; contemporary lighting and pastel shaker-style units create a unique blend of the old and new. Dine at the table together among fresh decor before heading up the stunning stone staircase to the first floor. Exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings and a crackling open fire make the lounge a haven to curl up in after a long day of exploration. Gaze out at the estuary views before the sun goes down, then get comfortable and watch your favourite show on the Smart TV. Get the kids off to sleep in the twin room, where neutral tones promote a deep slumber, before you enjoy a soak in the coastal-style bathroom with shower over the bath. When you’re ready for bed, head up to the second floor where estuary views, vaulted ceilings and a gorgeous king-size bed will ensure you get a great night’s sleep.
The National Lobster Hatchery (350 metres) is not to be missed, while the Padstow Museum, just around the corner, is ideal for a rainy morning. Take the children for a tractor ride at Trevathan Farm (14 miles) or take keen birdwatchers to the Cornish Birds of Prey Centre (7 miles). You can’t go wrong with any of the beaches in the area, including Constantine Bay (4 miles), Harlyn Bay (4 miles) and Polzeath (15.5 miles).

Mr Child
Really great location for Padstow and surrounding area. Perfect for 2 adults two kids family. We had a great time. Cottage was comfy and is a lot bigger than it first seems with three floors. Lovely bedroom for a couple on the top floor. Mid floor has bedroom for 2 kids and a good size lounge. Ground floor kitchen and dining area. All in all a lovely place to stay for a week.

Lobster House is a beautiful little cottage with amazing artwork in a great location for accessing the harbour: it's a 5 minute walk. It has a lovely kitchen diner with lots of space to fit a family in and the kitchen is well equipped. The sitting room is on the first floor and very cosy, it is a tight squeeze to fit everyone on the sofa but there are bean bags and floor cushions. There is a twin room on the first floor and then a double on the second floor accessed by some steep stairs so not suitable for everyone. This bedroom is gorgeous, with luxurious bedding. If you like to sleep with the window open then this room might not be for you as it faces the road which is well used by lorries and busses and they make a very loud noise when accelerating up past the cottage. There is no designated parking but Lawns car park is literally behind the cottage and costs £10 for 24 hours. We enjoyed our stay very much.
