Samphire, Padstow welcomes you into a lovingly presented two-bedroom fisherman's cottage where stylish accents meet quality fittings throughout. The bright kitchen diner features entirely modern appliances including electric oven, hob, fridge / freezer, microwave, dishwasher and washer / dryer, alongside a welcoming dining table and a coal-effect electric fire for added ambience. The comfortable lounge invites relaxation with cosy seating arranged around a wood burner-effect electric fire, a Smart TV with DVD player, DAB radio, and French doors opening directly onto your private patio.
Head outside, where the enclosed patio provides a peaceful suntrap retreat with outdoor furniture, perfect for al fresco dining or evening drinks away from the harbour bustle, plus an outdoor tap with shower head attachment for rinsing sandy feet. Upstairs, two beautifully appointed bedrooms each boast their own Smart TV and en-suite facilities: the king-size bedroom features an en-suite shower room, whilst the flexible super-king-size (or twin on request, with zip-and-link beds) enjoys an en-suite bathroom with shower over bath. A single garage (measuring 4.8 metres deep by 2.55 metres wide) provides secure parking, with additional public parking nearby and convenient storage for bikes and sports equipment.
Picture waking to the gentle sounds of harbour life drifting through your window, the scent of salt air mingling with morning coffee on your private patio. Spend sun-drenched days exploring golden beaches just moments away, perhaps catching perfect waves at Constantine Bay or discovering hidden coves along the dramatic coastline. As evening falls, wander back through Padstow's charming streets, perhaps stopping at one of Rick Stein's celebrated restaurants, before retreating to your peaceful cottage sanctuary where the wood burner-effect fire glows warmly and the bustle of the harbour feels wonderfully distant.
