We really loved our stay at the Old Sunday School. The house is really well equipped and comfortable. Considering we stayed in February, we were really warm and cozy. Would highly recommend.

One of the nicest cottages we’ve stayed in. Warm, clean and cosy with ample amenities. Perfect location, 12 mins drive from padstow. Parking space is tight but we have a big 4x4 and it was no problem. Would definitely recommend this cottage!

Mrs Corley
Very pleased with our choice. Well equipped, clean and comfortable. Location is very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Cornwall in the holiday period but this suited us. Within easy driving distance of the main attractions. Lovely shower and bathroom. Beds comfortable but as previously mentioned the double is low to the ground. Upstairs lounge a lovely space and very cosy when the log burner is lit. Stairs are open plan which our 2 little dogs did not like at all. They had to be carried up and down, (which they were very happy with!) Tea , coffee and biscuits a welcome treat on arrival. Overall good value for money and ideal if you want a chilled, quiet week away.
