Save money by self-catering in Cornwall in 2012

According to The Times travel pages, self-catering UK breaks will be all the rage this year as families economise in tough times. Also, a survey by TravelSupermarket suggests that a third of all holidays this year will be in self-catering properties.

Having a holiday to look forward to is just as important as ever in this challenging economic climate, but it doesn’t have to be an expensive trip to the Caribbean to refresh and revitalise you. Cornwall offers some of the most breathtaking scenery, stunning beaches and top food – and it’s only a car journey away.

To do our bit and as a thank you to all our loyal guests, we’re keeping our prices for 2012 the same as last year, despite an increase in running costs due to cleaning and utility bills etc.

Poppies and Sorrel Cottage are among the best value in our local area for families, while West Creek Cottage offers couples on their own or with one child a cosy base for touring the area at a very affordable price. With rates starting at under £300 per week, that works out at less than £20 per person per night – including linen, towels and parking.

Please visit the other pages on our website to find out more about our cottages in Padstow. We hope to welcome you soon.

Come to Cornwall for Christmas

Cornish beaches are just as beautiful in winter - and less crowded!

The moment August Bank Holiday is over,  the supermarkets start bringing in their Christmas ranges.  It drives me mad, but I know I should plan ahead and not leave everything to the last minute again this year.

With that in mind, why not consider spending the festive season in a Padstow holiday cottage at Christmas?  Our cottages are cosy bases for family get-togethers, you can get a Tesco grocery delivery and our fantastic beaches are perfect for a walk to lose some of those excess calories.  You might even escape a visit from the in-laws.

We currently have good availability on our cottages over Christmas and New Year.  This year, we are looking at changeover day on Thursday 22 and 29 December so that our hard-working cleaners get a bit of time off too.

Poppies (sleeps 6) is £625 for a week, Sorrel Cottage (sleeps 4) is £495 and West Creek Cottage (sleeps 3) is £420.  And if you mention our Christmas special offer when you call, you’ll get £25 off.

Just remember Christmas is coming … don’t leave it too late!

New look for Holiday Cottage!

A shiny new look for West Creek Cottage

The ladders are down, the paint is dry and we can now reveal the shiny new look of West Creek Cottage.  The walls are a brilliant white and the doors and windows are a contemporary shade of ‘green glade’, ideally suited to the rural hamlet of Little Petherick, where our cute self-catering holiday cottage is located.

Many thanks to Peter Curnow of Padstow who carried out the painting and also found time to restore a sash window, making West Creek Cottage ready for our summer guests.

To snap up our final remaining weeks at this traditional holiday cottage near Padstow and get a £75 late availability discount,  just click on the ‘rates, availability and booking’ tab above or contact Diana on 07808 481075. 

And we look forward to hearing what you think about the new look.

Brand new image for West Creek Cottage

West Creek Cottage – before painting!

West Creek Cottage in Little Petherick is getting a makeover this week! 

Soon the traditional cottage will be repainted in bright white with a contrasting colour for the doors and windows. 
We’re excited about the new image and hope this will make our cute self-catering Cornish cottage even prettier just in time for the summer holiday season.  It’s a lovely place to stay if you fancy renting a holiday home in Padstow.
Look out for a new photo appearing soon – and if anyone can correctly guess the new colour of the doors and windows a small prize will be heading your way! Just put your suggestions on the comment form below.
