Ideally located in the centre of Padstow’s Old Town sits Garden Sun, a charming home for up to four guests with views over the estuary. Weather permitting, we recommend you spend as much time as possible in your sunny garden, barbecuing, dining al fresco and playing lawn games. Inside, guests will find a fully equipped kitchen with a cosy breakfast nook, a large living area with a SmartTV and Netflix access, and two bedrooms, one of which is best suited for children. From here, it’s less than half a mile to the beach, local pubs and shops. In fact, within a five-mile radius, there are more than seven stunning sandy beaches waiting to be explored. Spend your days building sandcastles, catching up on your reading or learning a new skill, like surfing. Local offerings also include boat tours that take you out to catch a glimpse of the area’s wildlife.
