The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, proximity to Padstow, and access to local walks and wildlife. The convenience of a bus stop and the beauty of the surrounding area contribute to a high score.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the presence of two bathrooms advantageous. The property is considered ideal for small families, though it might be tight for four adults. The comfort of the outdoor furniture is also noted.
The cottage is well-equipped, with a well-received welcome tray. However, there were comments about the lack of a dishwasher and minor maintenance issues like a broken fridge door tray, which slightly lower the score.

Excellent well equipped cottage in lovely Cornwall. Saints Way is on the doorstep, and a bus stop at the top of the driveway, which is ideal for using the frequent service to explore the coastline.

The house was ideal for three of us, especially having two bathrooms.There was everything you needed in the property. A well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, plenty of outside space with different seating options. The car parking space was right next to the property so loading and unloading the car was easy. It was a bonus finding accommodation which was dog free, so rare these days. The property next door had 3 very yappy dogs which was annoying but not a problem, you just knew when someone was passing on a paddle board or someone was out on their decking! The stairs up to the first floor weren't an issue for us but could possibly be for older clientele, we are in our 60's and reasonably fit. Overall a superb little property and we will definitely rebook and return. There were one or two niggly issues, we had to wash most of the oven trays as they were very greasy and the fridge wasn't particularly clean, with the door tray broken so storing milk was a bit of a problem, but nothing to spoil what was a very enjoyable holiday.
