Property code: OC-P00223

Bring your perfect pet with you for an idyllic stay at this exquisite studio at Little Petherick, 3 miles from Padstow. Sleeping just two guests, the one-bedroom bolthole makes an outstanding, romantic retreat for a dog-loving couple eager to explore North Cornwall. Take your happy hound on walks through the Petherick Valley and along beside the creek, returning afterwards to bask in the sunshine of your private courtyard garden together.

Arrive at this delightful abode, which is next to the owner’s home but enjoys its privacy, to find homely accommodation for humans and hounds alike. The heart of the cottage is its open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can settle back on the sofa to watch TV, while your contented canine stretches out nearby. Put a little music on the CD as you dish up doggy dinners over in the kitchen area and perhaps rustle something tasty up for the two of you as well. Pat him goodnight then head through to the double bedroom to enjoy a great night’s sleep. Take your pal for a stroll the next day, returning to have a hot shower before breakfast and planning the rest of your dog-friendly day. Enjoy the last of the evening sunshine out in the courtyard garden, cooking supper on the BBQ and giving your chum plenty of puppy love.

Follow the Saints’ Way Trail for 2 miles into Padstow, where you can enjoy a delicious meal in a pub overlooking the harbour, and where your furry friend will also be welcome. From Padstow you can also pick up the South West Coast Path. Make a picnic, grab some dog treats and venture 4 miles from the cottage to beautiful Harbour Cove, where you and your faithful friend can paddle, swim and play ball on the beach, any time of year.

Nice little place! Bed was very comfortable! Underfloor heating was really nice! I wish I had it at home! I would advise people to speak to the owner as there a nice walks from the cottage! But they are not obvious! The road is a bit fast for the area though! So be careful with your fur babies. Great shower too! Parking for one car outside which isRead more a must for me! Thank you Hide

The cottage is in a great location for Padstow and other locations. The owners are very helpful. Accommodation was smaller than we expected and there wasn't much room to move around with our 2 dogs. We had issues with a few bits of equipment but the owners did replace or fix the pieces as soon as we made them aware. The WiFi in the accommodation isRead more excellent, but unfortunately the mobile reception and data not too good, but this seems to be just the location, after speaking to the owner. There are a couple of places you can walk your dogs just down from the property, but you need to be on the main road for a few minutes, as no foot path. Also there is a walk that takes you into Padstow which is 2 miles across fields and footpaths, but is signed posted. Overall it was a good break away from home. Hide

Has the potential to be a super little place but needs lots of attention to detail to make it so.

Wonderful studio, had everything we needed for a short break, the owner was very knowledgeable on the local and wider area for things to see and do, watching the sunset at Treyarnon Bay was wonderful and not somewhere we would gone without prior knowledge
