Avocets

Taking in the sights from Rock to the old iron bridge, friends or families can enjoy panoramic views of the ever-changing estuary from almost every room in this beautifully presented home. Situated in a quiet area, 0.5 miles from Padstow’s historic harbour, the town’s many fantastic pubs and seafood restaurants are within easy reach. For those who enjoy a more adventurous holiday, the Camel Trail is right on your doorstep, providing easy walking or cycling access to the market town of Wadebridge (5.3 miles). There is also the option of taking the short ferry ride over to the attractive village of Rock to discover the wide range of water sports on offer. Though Padstow has its own beaches just a short walk through the town, many other glorious sandy surfing beaches are nearby, including Constantine and Harlyn Bay (both 4.4 miles).

This luxurious property has been finished to a very high level throughout, capitalising on those inspiring estuary views. The large, double-height lounge/diner is flooded with light from skylights above and French patio doors to the side and front that soak up the panorama beyond. Two comfortable sofas and an armchair are arranged to maximise the viewing pleasure of both the river and the large flat-screen TV. The kitchen has a distinctly cottagey feel and comes fully equipped with everything a chef could need. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and shares those spectacular views with access to the outdoor deck. This room also features an en-suite shower and WC. There are two further bedrooms, one with twin single beds and one with a bunk bed. There is also a stylish family bathroom with a bath, shower, and WC and a separate utility room.

Outside, this property has a lot to offer, with a well-kept lawned garden and a glass-sided decking area presenting uninterrupted views of the Camel Estuary and rolling Cornish hills beyond. There is outdoor furniture, a BBQ and a garage for storing bikes and surfboards.
