2-Bedroom Cottage with Log Burner in Little Petherick

This two-bedroom Cornish stone and slate cottage sits in Little Petherick, a quiet village at the head of Petherick Creek near Padstow. Built around 1850 and formerly part of the village chapel and school, it has archway doors and a light airy feel that sets it apart from a standard holiday let.

Padstow is just 3 miles away. The nearest beach at Trevone is also 3 miles. The famous Camel Trail, an 18-mile off-road track following an old railway line to Bodmin, starts at Padstow and is ideal for walking or cycling.

The cottage sleeps four across two bedrooms. The double bedroom has field views and the twin has an attractive bay window. There are two bathrooms: one with a shower over the bath and one wet room with a walk-in shower. The lounge has a wood-burning fireplace and bay window seat. The kitchen has a Krups Nespresso machine and large patio doors opening to a slate patio with garden furniture and a portable BBQ.

Padstow harbour (3 miles) offers independent shops and galleries. The Eden Project is around 30 miles away. Newquay is roughly 14 miles. Tintagel Castle is about 25 miles north.

This property suits couples and small families who want a well-equipped base with real character close to Cornwall's north coast.
