About this property

PRIVATE PARKING, Cottage in Padstow, old part of town, family & pet friendly

Skye Cottage is situated in the old part of Padstow, in a very quiet street, just ten minute walk from centre of town. Parking, which is pretty rare in this old part of Padstow, is on your doorstep. The house is 18 years old but has been built in the old Cornish tradition, with slates front and the back garden is a fantastic sun trap. Within short walking distance you will be on the harbour, where all the famous restaurants of Padstow are located. Shops and pubs are also just down the road. Padstow is a perfect base from which to explore the whole county of Cornwall, not far from any of the other attractions such as Eden Project, Port Isaac, St Ives and the beaches of Trevone, Harlyn, Constantine, Treyarnon, Newquay, Watergate, Mawgan Porth and the famous coastal path walk.
PLEASE NOTE: Skye Cottage is only used as a holiday let so the post box is hardly ever open. Please avoid have any items sent to the property.

Great location with one parking space
Parking space was a rarity in this part of Padstow so extremely useful and property is in a great location. Surface clean ok but behind sinks etc in bathroom we’re not good at all. Owner allowed us to check in an hour early which was great but the set check-in and out times are the most extreme I’ve experienced - 9.30 and 4.30 - you’re basically paying for a night where you can’t do anything in the day - not even park the car. Cottage has everything you need - dishwasher, washing machine, full kitchen etc and both bedrooms have an ensuite. Nice area out the back to sit and have a vino/bbq.

An amazing week!
We were so incredibly lucky with the weather! Wall to wall sunshine in the first week of April. The property worked well for 2 couples, all of us retired and friends for many years. Parking on the doorstep (literally) for one car was very handy and we found a space on a nearby street for the 2nd car, though we mostly walked everywhere.

We enjoyed our stay so much last year that we came back again. The house is in a fantastic location and only a 5 minute walk to the bustling harbour but far enough away to be quiet. Having a parking space was a must for us with small children. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Overall the property is fine, the cleanliness could have been better, would have been nice to have some basic cleaning products and a dishcloth, the patio area could do with some maintenance and some seating and a table would be good, some sort of privacy at the front of property is needed but overall it is well worth the money, Thanks

Padstow holiday
The property location is fantastic and only a short 5 minute stroll down the the main harbour. Being situated in the old part of Padstow, it has all the charm and beauty you could hope for. Having a driveway is a massive bonus as there is very limited parking otherwise and it would have been difficult with a young family. We loved our stay and would definitely like to go again.

Traumurlaub
Wir haben unseren Urlaub in Skye Cottage sehr genossen. Die Unterkunft war für uns 3 Personen + Hund perfekt. Die Lage innerhalb von Padstow ist nicht zu toppen. Mittendrin, 5 Minuten Fußweg zum Hafen, mit eigenem Parkplatz - mega! - und trotzdem total ruhig - abgesehen von den Kirchenglocken ;-). Besonders gut gefallen hat uns die tolle Terrasse und der Garten, dort konnten wir wunderbar unseren Kaffee etc. genießen und entspannen. Zu jeder Tageszeit gab es sowohl ein sonniges als auch ein schattiges Plätzchen. Ein großes Plus auch für das schnelle Internet! Auch das Kochen auf dem Gasherd hat viel Spaß gemacht. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man für einen entspannten Urlaub braucht. 3 Badezimmer sind auch absoluter Luxus. Der Kontakt mit Adriana war sehr nett. Sie kümmert sich perfekt um alles und ist für jedes Problem jederzeit ansprechbar. Bei unserer Ankunft (Freitags) war die Spülmaschine defekt und schon am Montag kam Ersatz. Padstow als Urlaubsort hat uns super gefallen. Genau die richtige Mischung aus "Leben" und "Ruhe". Tolle Geschäfte, tolle Pubs, tolle Restaurants, tolle Möglichkeiten für Ausflüge, Bootstouren etc. Die Strände vor Ort und in der Umgebung sind umwerfend! Und auch für die Vierbeiner ist Cornwall ein Traum. Kurz: Für uns war es perfekt.

House needs urgent tlc
A list of the deficiencies we have found during our stay: 1) On arrival – clay footprints across the terrace from kitchen door to steps. We had to mop these before we could use the terrace. 2) One of the rattan chairs was 3-legged – corner piece detached, and foot missing. Owner proposal to just remove it was not appreciated. 3) Oven clock was 1 hour ahead. In trying to correct that I ended up with it just flashing ‘auto’ and ovens unusable. Fortunately I was able to identify the oven on YouTube and how to reset it. 4) In the back bedroom NEITHER bedside lamps worked. There was no suitable replacement bulb in the cupboard over the oven. Luckily both lamps worked in the other bedroom and I was able to swap bulbs. Owner said she had asked the cleaner to replace them. 5) The dishwasher was full of crockery and cutlery. The mugs smelt musty. How long was it since the machine had been run? 6) When I came to run the dishwasher part of the instructions was rubbed off. It took a lot of trial and error to get it to work. Then, set to 50, it did not open the detergent dispenser and failed to wash properly. A second attempt, having worked out how to get ‘auto’ did work. Owner said she knew about this. 7) We arrived on a warm day and the thermostats downstairs were showing temperatures in excess of 21 degrees. We could not work out how to reduce the temperature, so just opened the windows. Owner didnt know either! 8) None of the towel rails ever worked, despite the controller showing them ‘on’. We’d given up reporting problems at this stage. 9) There was an enormous cobweb across the window above the stairs. 10) There was an invasion of ants, apparently from the crack between tiles and door frame in the kitchen. 11) Finally, dust on skirtings, sills etc. indicative of a ‘quick wipe’ rather than having been cleaned. VRBO classify Skye Cottage as a ‘premier host’. Looking at the reviews it had not had a negative since 2019. Complacency seems to have set in. 1,2 and 4 are blamed on the cleaner, but owner knew about 5. It is usual, in holiday cottages, to leave a drawer with the instructions for the various white goods. OK these may get lost over the years, but there was no information whatsoever, even when, as with the dishwasher, the problem was known.

About the host

Hosted by Adriana Bringuenti

Host profile image
I am a Brazilian lady who have been living in the UK for 31 years, 28 of which in Cornwall where I have made my home and can't think of leaving this place. I have always lived in this area, first in Bloomfield, Trevone (E6352), Padstow for 12 years, where I have Skye Cottage and now in Mawgan Porth. I am married to a local chap and both my daughters were born here, where they follow on their dad's footsteps playing golf, surfing and life-guarding during the Summer.

Why they chose this property

We built Skye Cottage from scratch on the grounds of Garslade - the house over the gate, from where I ran a B&B for 12 years. The idea was to add a couple of bedrooms to the B&B but we ended up building a proper house, which is now being rented as self-catering since we no longer own Garslade. The house has a modern feel to it, with ceramic floors downstairs and underfloor heating, and oak floors upstairs. The bathrooms upstairs also have underfloor heating.

What makes this property unique

PARKING, PARKING, PARKING. PRIVATE PARKING. Sorry to bang on about it, but it's very rare in the old part of Padstow to have your own parking space, in a property that's so near all the amenities of the town. Another major attraction is that both rooms are en-suite, which is very welcomed by couples who come on holiday together. Another bathroom downstairs will let you sort out the sand you bring from the beach.
