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.

What I loved about this property was its location, the helpfulness of the host, how modern it was inside but comfortable and the two spacious double bedrooms with en suites. I'd definitely stay here again.

Really enjoyed the hustle and bustle of Padstow, and the fantastic food and restaurants. This accommodation was perfect to retire to at the end of a busy day, so peaceful and relaxing. Would highly recommend this accommodation

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.

The house is wonderfully situated in Padstow with parking. It’s lovely and clean and tidy with everything you need including a garden.

Adriana was excellent with communication and the property is exactly what she describes. The area was mostly quiet except for Saturday evening when the neighbors seem to enjoy a later night. However it didn’t disturb our stay. The location is unbeatable and the house was perfect for our group.

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.

Best house I have rented in Padstow

The house was excellent, we loved our stay. It's lovely and spacious, having ensuite bedrooms and parking was a real bonus and it was nice and warm. The location of this place is absolutely perfect, barely 10 minutes walk and you're in the centre of Padstow. Highly recommended and would definitely stay here again.

Lovely property in a quiet location. Short walk downhill into Padstow. Great trip to Rock by ferry and walk to St Enodocs Church. The Golden Lion pub in Padstow excellent ‘pub grub’, very friendly would definitely recommend.

Great property in great location which suited us perfectly.

Amazing property in the Old town of Padstow with parking .Location to the town and beach was perfect!! We will definitely be back .

A great Christmas spent at Skye Cottage, it has everything you need plus walking distance to harbour and beach and a private car parking space. We’ve already booked again for the spring!

Skye cottage never disappoints. Such a comfortable and well equipped house. It's a true home from home in a gorgeous place

Excellent

A beautifully designed, equipped and presented cottage in an ideal situation; close enough to easily enjoy all that Padstow has to offer without being disturbed by the crowds, but offering easy access to the local area without having to navigate the narrow crowded streets of the town.

The property has 2 ensuite double bedrooms ideal for older children or adults. Exceptionally clean inside patio and garden area could have done with a sweep and tidy. Overall though was a lovely cottage.

A beautiful clean cottage in a lovely location. Our second time here. Everything we needed. Bonus parking and a back garden with BBQ.

We have been coming to Padstow for many years and it is one of the nicest places we have stayed at. The house and facilities are great and is just what is needed. The car parking space is a great bonus for a house in the town and the patio area and sunken garden is a lovely little sun trap.

A short walk to the town and quayside, but also suitably far away to be quiet. Plenty to do in the area - the car didn’t leave the parking space all week; it didn’t need to.

Last time we rented this property it was 6 years ago and just great. This time was superb.

Easy booking system. Our second time of staying in this modern spacious accommodation at such a great location, with easy access to coast path walking. We will be back!

Overall enjoyable stay. The parking is a huge asset to this property, particularly in a place like Padstow.

Perfectly located property to access Padstow harbour and a real bonus to have a parking space. The house and garden were lovely and provided everything we needed as a family for our stay.

Lovely house in a very good location. Parking space was a real bonus.

A little jewel in the middle of Padstow Old Town

Really good stay, have stayed in the area many times in the past, this house was one of the best.

We had a wonderful stay at Skye Cottage. The location is ideal, just a few roads away from the harbour with a parking space too

We really enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of room for our family of four and our dog. Each bedroom had their own bathroom plus another shower room downstairs. All very comfortable and easy to stay in. The location was a short walk down to the village which we did every morning for coffee. Padstow is a lovely village and being so close was really lovely as we could enjoy it when it was quieter in the early mornings and evenings. Thank you.

We found Skye Cottage perfect for our needs. The cottage is in a good location with easy access to the costal path and town.

Back for the second time and just as happy as before. Lovely cottage within a couple of minutes walk of the harbour, bars and places to eat.

Suited us down to the ground. Two en suites, comfy beds, 55" smart TV, parking as well - very rare this close to town centre. Very well equipped. 10 out of 10.
