A tranquil, peaceful cottage, perfect for us and our two Westies to enjoy our holiday. The location is ideal being close to such fabulous beaches and cliff top walks. Having the field for the dogs to run around in was great with the bonus of a picnic table. We will recommend this cottage to friends who, like us, want a quiet and comfortable haven.

Only things I would like to raise is lack of window in main bedroom, only French doors which you wouldnt leave open on a hot night as open on to shared driveway. No where to sit outside and enjoy the evening sun. No personal outside space and field to far away for someone with limited mobility. Only seating outside was bistro table and two chairs oRead moren what is a shared driveway. Hide

We had a lovely stay in Otters Retreat. The location was quiet & great for walking, with easy access by car to various parts of Cornwall and some great beaches all of 20 minutes drive away. Parking at the cottage was really good and the meadow to sit in of an afternoon in the waning sunlight while the dog mooched was nearly as good as having your oRead morewn enclosed garden. I feel it was a little expensive, but all in all we were comfortable, had a great holiday and I would consider using it again. Hide

A tastefully decorated cottage with lots of local touches. A good location for exploring the surrounding area of Padstow and beyond. Didnt use paddock as grass rather long and damp when we were there. Instead for a quick short walk we went up the lane by the property. A bid advantage is the parking which can be difficult nearer the villages. PlentyRead more of local inns for eating not just Padstow. We particularly liked Rock the beach and the coffee shop there. Also can get a ferry across to Padstow. Hide
