We stayed at this stunning house for a week in February. The house itself is beautiful. The layout is perfect for a large family, or families sharing, as there are many levels with room to have your own space and to come together to eat. The open plan living room/dining room/kitchen is absolutely gorgeous and airy, with access to an outside terrace, and stunning views over the estuary. The sleeping accommodation is really flexible with plenty of sleeper sofas and guest beds, if needed. All the bedrooms have their own bathroom/loo. The terrace room on the top floor is amazing and has the most wonderful views. It has a sitting area and a TV/DVD player, so was a firm favourite with the children. The bedrooms were lovely, with comfortable bedding, and the master room at the front of the house had views over the estuary.
There was enough parking for 3 cars in the front. The ferry to Padstow is about a 3 minute walk from the house. There is a pub two doors away and more bars/restaurants next to the ferry. The small deli, supermarket, and fish and chip shop is about 3 minutes by car, or walkable if you're feeling energetic.
The house owner is absolutely lovely and couldn't do enough for us. She was flexible with changeover day, made sure the heating was on for us prior to arrival, left us fabulous treats in the form of local cider and luxurious, complimentary bath products from a local company (St.Kitts Herbery - you'll be hooked once you try them!), and she kept in touch by email to ensure we had everything we needed.
The photos of the house don't do it full justice - it's even better than it looks. The general consensus of my family is that it's the best house we've stayed at in Cornwall. We all loved it and hope to stay again next year.
