Church Cottage Petherick

Church Cottage is a two-bedroom period cottage for 4 in Little Petherick, a wooded creek hamlet 2 miles south of Padstow. One king-size and one twin bedroom sit upstairs with countryside views, and two bathrooms mean each room has its own washing facilities.

The lounge has large windows, a wood burner and an open fire. A dishwasher and washing machine are provided in the kitchen, and the enclosed rear patio has garden furniture around a private hot tub. Wi-Fi and parking are included, and dogs are accepted.

The Saints Way footpath passes through the hamlet on its route to Padstow harbour, about 3 miles away on foot or a 5-minute drive. Trevone Bay is 2.8 miles from the cottage, Harlyn Bay Beach is 3.3 miles and Daymer Bay is 3.5 miles, so all three need a car.

Little Petherick itself has no pub or shop, just the 14th-century church of St Petroc Minor beside the tidal creek, so day-to-day supplies come from Padstow or Wadebridge. The Little Petherick guide covers the wider creek valley.

Thirty holidaycottages reviews give Church Cottage a rating of 4.4. **Best for:** a family or two couples wanting two bathrooms, a hot tub and direct access to a walking route. **Less good for:** guests wanting a beach within walking distance or step-free access.
