About this property
Settled in the lovely coastal town of Padstow, Cornwall, rests this charming, two-bedroom, mid-terrace holiday home, 18 Sarahs View. Boasting off-road parking, well-presented living spaces, and superb positioning to nearby amenities and attractions, this delightful property welcomes a family of four for a fun-filled, fuss-free escape near the Cornish coastline. After parking up and unpacking, make yourself fully at home in your new dwelling, where the chosen chef can get to work in the fully-equipped kitchen, filled with all the appliances required to rustle up a delicious, home-cooked meal that can be savoured around the dining table before you settle down to watch a film or two in the well-appointed sitting area. In warmer months, head out back to the rear courtyard, where you can begin to prepare a tasty, alfresco feast that you can enjoy on the garden furniture, a perfect way to spend a hot summer's day. When sleep calls, be sure to refresh with a rejuvenating shower or a restorative bath before you head for a well-earned rest in either a plush double or twin bedroom. After you've polished off your morning coffee, take a brief stroll into the centre of Padstow, where you'll find an abundance of things to do and see. Stock up on essentials at the nearby Tesco Superstore; pick up some trinkets at Stein's Gift Shop; grab a Cornish pasty from The Cornish Bakery, before settling down for traditional pub lunch at the Old Custom House, Padstow, which overlooks the tranquil spot of Padstow Harbour, or sample some local produce at Rick Stein’s, The Seafood Restaurant. Within the area you’ll also find a plethora of clothes shops, gift shops and independent boutiques to ease your stay. If you fancy a day trip out of town, a brief car journey east along the coast will bring you to nearby Polzeath, where you can find the stunning nature reserve of Pentire Point, snap some gorgeous photos from the viewpoint of The Rumps, or even just spend an afternoon sunbathing on the soft sands of Polzeath Beach. Join the Southwest Coastal Path for further coastal vistas, stopping off at the lovely beaches of Watergate, Porth, and Newquay, and many more, majority of which are dog-friendly, all year round. All of this and so much more is waiting to be enjoyed during your stay at 18 Sarahs View.
A great starting point for exploring the South West Coastal Path, which opens up routes to the stunning Cornish countryside, is Padstow, which is located at the beginning of the Camel Cycle Trail. This charming fishing port is flanked by beautiful beaches and provides many possibilities to sample the regional cuisine at places run by famous people. Padstow offers activities for everyone, including fishing, strolling, cycling, and taking trips on local fishermen's boats. For family-friendly activities, the superb surfing beaches of Harlyn and Constantine are suitable. A golf course is also located nearby in Constantine Bay, and Daymer Bay's beach is accessible via a passenger boat that runs from Padstow to Rock. The surfing mecca of Polzeath is only around the corner towards Pentire Head, and when the beach no longer calls, there are neighbouring golf courses, various magnificent mansions, and gardens to explore. Just over 20 miles separate you from the magnificent Eden Project.

A hiccup when we arrived! It had not been cleaned or towels and beds changed, having contacted Sykes they said would contact owner/cleaner. This was after 5pm when we arrived. No one contacted us to say someone was coming, we sat there waiting! Finally got to speak to owner who confirmed some one on their way. Eventually arrived after 8pm! Dare not go out for some dinner , so after they had gone , cheese on toast for dinner! Apart from that hiccup the rest of stay was fine, although for me the bed was far to firm, did not sleep well, did consider sleeping on the couch!!!!

Fully equipped kitchen and having a washer dryer was a bonus especially with 2 young children. Only a 10 minute walk into Padstow harbour which meant we could leave the vehicle at the property.
