  • "Lovely comfortable house in an excellent location, just 5 mins walk to the harbour."
  • Stay in an 1876 Grade II listed building which was once the town’s school
  • Converted character property retaining original features
  • 300 metres from the fishing port, the cottage’s patio has views of the Camel Estuary
Property code: OC-P00011

This property has been converted from part of the 1876 grade II listed building which was once the school for the town. The conversion has been sympathetically achieved to retain much of the original stone walls, gothic arched windows and vaulted ceilings, which give the building its character. Primrose House is ideally located just a two minute walk from the harbour and Padstow's many recommended restaurants. The town is now familiar to many from Rick Stein's seafood cookery programmes, but was a well-kept secret for many years before. The historic fishing port remains largely unspoilt and the townspeople like to keep it that way. Within easy striking distance are magnificent walks along the coastal footpaths and just a few miles down the coast are some of the finest beaches in Cornwall; a number absolutely ideal for surfing the rolling Atlantic breakers. There are championship golf links at Trevose and St. Enodoc; a passenger ferry and water taxi runs across the estuary to Rock. The route of the old railway track to Bodmin is now a popular trail for cyclists and walkers and offers some wonderful scenery along the way.

We were a party of 6 adults and although one couple had to have the twin room the benefit was we had sole access to the nearby main bathroom! Primrose House is very well equpped, spacious, clean and comfortable. We would all heartily recommend it as the perfect bolthole for a stay in Padstow.
