Lovely secluded location with views overlooking the water. Met on arrival by the owners who were very friendly and welcoming and had supplied a Cornish cream tea for us. The apartment has been furnished & decorated very tastefully and felt like a home away from home. The owners have given a lot of thought to making sure you have everything you needRead more for a relaxing break. Great for walkers and dog owners with a footpath that leads to Padstow through the nearby woods and fields. Will definitely be coming back. Hide

The Anchorage is the most wonderful space for a holiday in the ideal location of Padstow. Had the review ratings allowed an excellent category, I wouldve marked excellent in every category! The hosts, George and Alison, have paid massive attention to detail inside the apartment. We wanted for absolutely nothing at all, except a little food for the Read morefridge. And buy attention to detail thats exactly what I mean, even a pair of binoculars in the lounge with an accompanying book on bird spotting! The location is beautiful, on the river camel which attracts lots of wildlife to the area, and the gardens are spacious with barbecue area, seating and tables for outdoor dining. The other two families in adjacent parts of the building were just as appreciative of their accommodation as I was. This is definitely a place that my wife and I will return to when we next visit that part of the Cornish coast. Hide
