The cottage is well appointed, clean and with some lovely features. The location is superb for both access to the town and also for travelling to other areas. The garage is really useful and whilst tight we were able to park a Skoda Karoq easily.

Excellent location with the addition of parking we was concerned if the garage would be large enough but we got our Tiguan in with just enough room. The house is on a busy road but this didnt effect us as the traffic was not heavy in the evenings when we visited, the bedrooms were spacious, on suite plenty big enough, living room spacious as was thRead moree kitchen dining room, nice outside dining area.

A well stocked, comfy holiday home in a prime location in Padstow. The house has plenty of room for 4 adults, a well stocked kitchen and a great outdoor dining space which is a huge plus for us. Although on a main road into Padstow its quiet and peaceful. The cottage has been clean and well presented on both our visits and we would definitely vRead moreisit again. Hide

Absolutely beautiful cottage. Could not be any closer to the town. Very peaceful & immaculately clean. Bonus on having the garage, fitted my fiesta in there perfectly, and knowing it was safe.

Samphire is well equipped and in an excellent location. We really enjoyed our stay in Padstow, theres so many great places to eat and lots to explore on your doorstep. We parked in the main car park which was really reasonably priced for the week and only a minute or two walk to car from cottage. We felt that the cottage was good value for money anRead mored would be perfect for either two couples or a family of four. We really loved the two en-suite bathrooms. The house was well equipped and comfortable and spacious. Hide
