Reviews

This is a lovely house, it has been decorated and updated really well, is very comfortable, and all the little touches have been thought of (like phone chargers and reading lights in the bedroom). This was maybe our 10th stay here, and it still feels like a treat, something to look forward to, as a great base to explore Padstow and the wider area. Thanks to the owners (and also for the scones and milk when we arrived)

Mr K,

Cottage has everything you could possibly want and more. Easy parking at the property, Baxter is very warm, comfortable and cosy. Location of the cottage is in Padstow is excellent.

Mrs S,

Baxters Cottage really is home from home - the décor is just stunning. We love the new kitchen and the bed in the front bedroom - well just perfect, Great location, private parking, home comforts what more could you want from a holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be looking to book again when we can find availability. Thank you

Mrs S,

We were very happy staying at Baxters cottage over Christmas, the kitchen was well equipped for all cooking needs. We had plenty of towels and toilet rolls, there was even a hairdryer! Plus a Christmas tree and crackers which made our day. The cottage was very clean and comfy, the shower was powerful and hot.. Excellent location to the town and amenities, plus parking, which is a big bonus. We can’t recommend Baxter’s Cottage enough, for anyone who is thinking about staying here I would say it’s a must.

Mr C,

Beautiful what else can I say? Just amazing our third visit and we shall definitely be going back to this cottage.

Mr W,

We were four adults staying at Baxter's cottage for the weekend. It has everything you would need in terms of kitchen equipment and facilities. The open plan living/dining area had plenty seating for all. The bedrooms were well sized and plenty of furniture. A bonus to have two toilets. The shower was great, with good pressure. Well situated, just a short way up the road from the shops, bars and restaurants of the town. I/we come to Padstow frequently and have used Cornish Horizons before, but this was our first time at this property - consensus of the party, was that this was the best so far, and we'd definitely use it again if available!

Mrs C,

Baxters cottage is in the perfect location in Padstow - central for shops and restaurants but not so central that you lose any privacy. It was spotlessly clean and the one tiny little house keeping question we had was dealt with politely and immediately. With only one upstairs bathroom i would say it is ideal for a family…. I have no hesitation in recommending Baxters Cottage to anyone.

Mrs H,

Superb location as basically in the town with the added bonus of parking, and a good size yard for the dogs. Very comfortable, and relaxing

Mr P,

It was our first stay at Baxter's cottage and will definitely stay again. The cottage is well kept, modern and ideally situated just a short but steep hill down to the harbour. The property is very dog friendly with secure gated garden. There is ample room for two cars. Would highly recommend this property.

Mrs G,

Lovely cottage located within 5 minutes of the town centre and harbour. Property is extremely well equipped with everything you need for your stay including parking. Accommodation was clean and welcoming. Padstow is a charming coastal town with a good selection of dining options.

Mr C,

Lovely property very near to town although very noisy with the road hence dropped to 4. Stayed at house previously so very pleased with what it offers.

Mrs Kerry M,

Lovely property very well presented with nice outside space and the benefit of 2 car parking spaces.

Mrs C,

Lovely property very near to town although very noisy with the road hence dropped to 4. Stayed at house previously so very pleased with what it offers .

Mrs Kerry M,

Perfect location a very short walk from the harbour, pubs, shops etc. Very modern, very well equipped, and spotlessly clean on arrival.

Mr T,

Lovely cottage, great location, very comfy, very clean.

Mr K,

Amazing, beautifully decorated, clean, minute walk to harbour, 2 minute walk to camel trail. Lovely welcome pack of wine, chocolate and crisps, modern kitchen with space age cooker! Excellent choice of TV channels, great communication with owner. Minute to Harbour Hotel where we were attending a wedding. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Mrs E,

Lovely cosy warm comfortable cottage. This was our 4th visit and looking forward to our next stay.

Mrs S,

Cornish Holidays were great to deal with and the communication was excellent. Baxters Cottage was perfect for our group of 5 adults and dog. A genuinely lovely cottage that was spotless and we will be back again!

Mrs H,

Location

Padstow is arguably now one of the best-known of Cornwall's holiday destinations - a working harbour still retaining the character of the fishing industry while also managing to reinvent itself as a modern holiday destination. Padstow has so much to offer the discerning holiday maker, with several beaches along the Camel Estuary, where you can also have a go at a range of water sports such as sailing and windsurfing, as well as a variety of boat trips such as fishing excursions, speedboat rides, sea-life safaris and the ever popular Jubilee Queen. You can indulge your passion for food at an excellent selection of restaurants in the town, which is now the base for a number of celebrity chefs including Rick Stein and Paul Ainsworth.  If you're looking for more active pursuits, you can cycle the Camel Trail, the route of the old railway line running between Padstow and Bodmin.  If walking is more your thing, there are many walking trails and routes waiting to be discovered, and if you're bringing a dog, there are plenty of dog-friendly places to explore. Gaining popularity in recent years is the Padstow Christmas Festival, now spread over four days, with cookery demonstrations, food and craft market, and entertainment.
