Luxury self-catering accommodation in Padstow

Centred around a lively working harbour and overlooking the shimmering reaches of the tidal Camel Estuary, Padstow sits where Cornwall’s National Landscape meets the sea. Tides and paths have crossed here for centuries, bringing pilgrims and sailors, traders and travellers in search of sanctuary and adventure. Today, you can watch boats bob in the bay, enjoy a leisurely paddleboard, browse independent galleries and studios and sample the best of Cornish produce from Michelin-starred restaurants, fishmongers and cafés, paired with wines from award-winning local vineyards.

The Saint’s Way, a 30-mile walking route connecting Padstow and Bodmin, begins here, and the coastal path unfolds in both directions. Follow the circular route around Stepper Point to Harbour Cove, a must-do for walking enthusiasts, or perhaps trace the Camel Trail by bicycle. After days spent exploring coast and countryside, retreat to one of our self-catering hideaways, including a farmhouse complete with wood-fired hot tub. For a slightly different outlook on North Cornwall, take the ferry across to Rock, or venture to nearby Polzeath, Watergate or Harlyn to surf beneath a flaring sunset.
