This is the perfect spot to stay in Padstow. It’s centrally located literally steps from everything. What makes this place unique is that once you close the door it feels isolated, quiet, comfortable and safe. The home is fantastic. The beds are so comfortable and everything was spotless. Look no further if you are wanting to stay in Padstow.
We loved the house and especially its location : in town, but quiet in it's secluded spot. Parking is up the hill in a city parking lot and finding the house the first time was a little tricky ( its behind a tall gate), but on our second attempt we succeeded. The house met all of our needs really well. We would definitely stay here again.
Excellent location. Property has been put together with care. Bedding is beautiful and beds very comfortable. Think the kitchen is a good space, but sparse on content. Fabulous wood used throughout for doors, bedside tables. Really enjoyed our stay here. Would definitely book again.
Excellent location right in the heart of Padstow. Parking not a huge issue as just a short walk away, Great cottage, very clean and had everything you could wish for. If only it took dogs we’d be back!

Padstow cottage
Well located, clean, compact, well decorated, caution- you have to pay for your own firewood but there is central heatingWe enjoyed our stay very much
Clean and tidy modern amenities. One of the best Apartments on our 6 week trip. We love Padstow and this Apartment was the best. Would definitely recommend and stay here again. Centrally located Shops and Restaurants all around. Easy walking and close to Parking. Would be very busy in Summer peak. We went in December.
Lovely property in absolutely the perfect location. Padstow has many outstanding restaurants and we were able to walk to these every night during our week in Cornwall. Property is immaculately clean and provides everything one needs for a week away from home. We will definitely stay here again.
The little cottage is charming and has everything you need but I would suggest taking your own pillows (or the host buying new ones!) as the ones there were rather lumpy! But all in all a charming little cottage, homely and welcoming and with the woodburner it was just what we needed after days braving the wind along the coastal path.
The cottage is perfectly located in the heart of Padstow. the cottage is spacious and very well equipped, nicely simpley decorated. The checking in times were changed from the initial advert, for the better. We enjoyed out stay in the cottage. Padstow has a few car parks, we used Link Road Car Par on top of the hill, parking app easy to use and not far walk into town, but the hills are steep!
This beautiful property was perfectly in every way, it's located in the heart of Padstow, it's well equipped and kept to a very high standard of cleanliness.
Great setup for adults only stay or a young family like ours ( 5 & 1 yr old).
We have already rebooked.
Gavin was the perfect host and very responsive to our every need.
Lovely property: well equipped, spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds. An uphill walk to the best value car park, but that is the price you pay for staying right in the heart of Padstow. Location was very quiet and secluded, but still ideal for short walks to the many excellent restaurants (be aware that even in low season you need to book these well in advance). Just one suggestion: some loose cushions for the sofa, which was rather deep for total comfort (perfect with a pillow). Highly recommended.
Chapel Cottage was a delight! Perfect location in the middle of town, yet extremely quiet. Beautifully and thoughtfully furnished throughout. A very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Would highly recommend.
Chapel Cottage was pretty much a perfect place to spend a week. Its location right in the middle of town, meant that we could park the car at the beginning of the week and not move it. (There were plenty of spaces in Links car park, even on a busy Saturday.) The cottage is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. We were incredibly lucky with the weather - hot and sunny every day but luckily Gavin had thought to provide fans for the house. We’d definitely recommend a stay here.
Fantastic cottage. Would use again. Fantastic location. Very clean and beautifully decorated cottage. We would definitely use this cottage again. It's a hidden gem, literally! So get to Pads
Chapel Cottage is a wonderful place to stay. Spotlessly clean and is beautifully furnished. Everything you need and more is there! Chapel Cottage is tucked away in a little courtyard with all that Padstow has to offer on your doorstep. Perfect.
Fantastic stay at Chapel Cottage tucked away in the heart of Padstow
The cottage was very well equipped with everything you need in a holiday home and finished to a high and very comfortable standard
Very thoughtful extras for young children (although we didn’t need them) including stair gates, children’s cutlery and a cot)
Detailed instructions on check in/ out and great communication with owner prior and after stay
Would highly recommend staying here
Thank you for making our holiday a real treat

Excellent accommodation and location. Everything we could possibly need and more. We will definately be booking again. Thank you to the owners of this beautiful cottage.
We stayed for a long weekend and had a fantastic time. The cottage is very well located, right in the centre but very quiet. The accommodation was great, lots of space and with well thought touches such as night lights for the little ones. It was a home from home and we couldn’t fault anything. We would highly recommend a stay at Chapel Cottage and hope to return.
