Driftwood is a well-received holiday cottage in Padstow, praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and peacefulness. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen and thoughtful touches, such as a cream tea on arrival. The location is convenient for exploring nearby beaches, though some amenities are a bit tired. The property is ideal for families and those seeking a quiet retreat.
Guests consistently mention that Driftwood is clean and tidy, indicating high standards of cleanliness throughout the property.
The property is appreciated for its peaceful location, suitable as a base for exploring the area. However, there is a mention of nearby amenities being a bit tired, which slightly affects the score.
Reviews highlight the property's comfort, with mentions of a comfortable lodge and well-equipped accommodations. One note about the size of a bedroom suggests it may not be suitable for taller individuals.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-stocked kitchen and central heating. However, the mention of tired amenities on-site suggests room for improvement in the broader facilities and maintenance category.
While guests mention a lovely cream tea on arrival, as gifts are not consistently referenced across reviews, it is not possible to accurately score thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gestures are appreciated but not guaranteed.
If you were going to be washed up anywhere then Driftwood at St. Merryn will not disappoint. Don’t forget your tennis rackets!. 4 steps to entrance.

Clean and tidy and well equipped with everything you’d ever need - a real home from home.Location is good as a base for exploring but nothing on site, as amusements and venue at entrance is a bit tired ( not that Driftwood could change that)The owners left a lovely note and cream tea for our arrival which was a lovely and thoughtful touch and we would definitely stay again
