Description

This beautifully renovated property boasts amazing views across the Camel Estuary, taking in the sights from Rock to the Old Iron Bridge you can enjoy the panoramic views of the ever changing estuary from almost every room. Avocets is situated in a quiet part of Padstow, 5 minutes' walk from the picturesque harbour, where you will find a wide selection of shops, cafes and restaurants to choose from. For those who enjoy a more adventurous holiday the Camel Trail is right on your door step, providing easy walking or cycling access to the market town of Wadebridge and beyond there to Bodmin or why not tackle part of the Saints Way which begins at the church and runs along behind Egerton Road. There is also the option of taking the short ferry ride over to Rock where you will find a host of all kinds of water sports, or trying out the local golf courses.

Reviews

Our third visit to Avocets and once again it has been absolutely perfect for our needs.

Mr B,

Beautiful place well positioned and equipped.

Mrs W,

Amazing views from this property. You can walk in to Padstow from this property. Mattress in main bedroom is quite comfortable en-suite bathroom is a tight squeeze but amazing property and I would definitely look to book this property again.

Ms W,

This was the 2nd year that we stayed in Avocets. It was just as lovely as last year. A short walk into Padstow and the many restaurants. We were lucky with the weather so could really enjoy the view over the estuary.

Mr C,

Excellent location with great access to the Camel Trail and only a short walk into the town. Beds comfortable with very good linen. Great to have access to the garage to keep bikes safe and dry. Equipment probably the best we have had at a holiday property. Great meals at Rojanos and Rick Stein's fish and chips but very disappointing for two of us at The Mariner's in Rock - the Cote de Bouffe was expensive and far too fatty! My daughter and husband had a fabulous meal at No6 (special treat). Camel Valley Winery a great place to visit and have their tour which includes a "flight" of their sumptuous wines. Granddaughter loved the lobster hatchery and witnessed a release at Gaverne bay. Dolphin watch was a great success - lots of dolphins and a few calves. Trevose golf club was brilliant. Definitely recommend this property and will no doubt return.

Mr G,

A very comfortable property with amazing views

Mr M,

The view from the living space was amazing even in the rain. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds comfortable. We would definitely recommend this property and would book again

Mrs H,

Lovely property, very clean. Wonderful views

Ms P,

We had a wonderful week at Avocets. The property has everything we needed and was beautifully clean and well positioned. Although the weather wasn't brilliant in early March we did go on quite a few walks, we took our bikes and rode the Camel Trail and had amazing food at Rick Steins Seafood Restaurant and most particularly, at Paul Ainsworth's No. 6 restaurant which was truly amazing! We have booked again for next year already.

Mrs E,

Thank you for a lovely stay. Mixed bag with the weather but lots of wonderful experiences. Sea safari with sightings of puffins, seals, dolphins and Minke whale! Cycling along the Camel Trail to Wadebridge. Walk to Port Isaac, across Holywell, and a trek in Porthcurno (well worth the drive). Visits to our fave beach in Constantine Bay, Dinner out at Emben, takeaway from Rick Stein, and more pasties than we care to admit!

Maughans and C,

Blown away by the views. Beautiful bungalow, high standard of amenities provided. We could not have wished for more, and have already booked again for next year.

Previous Customer,

Such a beautiful and relaxing location. So very comfortable, a real home from home.We have enjoyed our week enormously, and will come again.

Williams family,

Wonderful place to stay in.....very very high standard of cleanliness.... wonderful views..very comfortable home.. Great time!!!

Mrs W,

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.
