A wonderful week in November at The Look-out

We stayed with Harbour Holidays in Padstow, at a wonderful and perfectly placed house called the Lookout, what a lovely clean and comfortable home it is. The garden is huge, and the view from the lookout bedroom is just amazing. Already looking forward to going back and booking the same place again. I can’t recommend this enough. Thank you so much for a wonderful week. See you soon Dave & Craig.

Harbour holidays agency is situated in Padstow and we stay in two different accommodations by choice . Trevone and then Padstow. Our overall holiday is always made more enjoyable by the agency and the efficient way they handle problems.( eg umbrella washing line in the wind blown bent). The quality of the staff is equal to the accommodations they have on their books. Which is of a very high standard!!! Thank you to all.

Just what we needed

4 of us travelled down from Edinburgh and had a great time. Padstow was beautiful, peaceful and had everything we needed. Our accommodation at 11 cross street was lovely and had a nice quirky feel. The beds were very comfy and we had everything we needed to feel totally at home. We highly recommend visiting and we felt that we were in prime position to visit other towns. We visited st Ives, lands end and Newquay during our stay and loved it.

We’ve just returned home from a week with Harbour Holidays, we have immediately secured the same property for next year.
The team at Harbour Holidays have been extremely helpful and have always answered any questions promptly. Their website is easy to navigate and description of the property was accurate.
The house we stayed in was 5* and we can’t wait to return again.

Easy to book via the website and then very detailed follow up information was provided just before arrival. The staff are also very friendly to deal with and are prompt responding to any queries. Can’t fault them. We’ve used them several times for our Cornwall breaks and they won’t let you down.

Fabulous - Padstow, Little Dinas and HH

We visit Padstow (our happy place) once or twice a year and regularly book with HH. Most recently, we had a return visit to 3 Little Dinas. This is a fabulous property in a great location. It is pricey - but is high-end - the furniture, furnishings and kitchen.

HH are always responsive and the recent addition of the digital guide for the property and local area is a great addition.

A super little cottage

This is a super little cottage, a short stroll from the centre of town. Thoughtful design (loads of room for toiletries in the bathroom, for example) and a well-equipped kitchen (great milk warmer/frother!) made us feel welcome.

6 Strand Street Padstow

A well presented and equipped apartment in the heart of Padstow. However, an open circular staircase (not allowed to climb) at one end of the room opens up to a boarded loft space that blows a gale down it on windy days and nights. Blamed on Storm Amy by the HH GM and when it passed the problem disappears as well says the HH GM. Fireplace chimney breast isn't sealed properly and therefore blows a draft down it. Strand Street is very tight for unloading/loading and presents problems for people trying to walk past. You will be woken by noisy revellers from The Harbour Inn and The Old Customs House passing through Strand St on their way home. Too many "Do not.........." signs. Do not use the Washing M/c and DW after 10pm; Do not touch the heating controls (HH GM says they were set by the previous owner!). Do not open the right hand window except in the case of an emergency. We wont be staying there again and wont be recommending it. I doubt if we will use HH again.

Dear Andrew,

We appreciate you taking time to leave feedback.
On this occasion, we resolved all the issues raised during your stay, including an out of hours visit on the Sunday to ensure the heating was working.
If you do decide to stay with Harbour Holidays again we would be more than happy to find a property more suitable for you.

Highly recommended!

We've booked with Harbour Holidays at least four times now and there's a reason why. They really are the best in Padstow. The communication is great, the staff are friendly and attentive and there's a great selection of properties to choose from. We stayed at The Look Out in Padstow which has an excellent location, is very spacious, with lovely estuary views from upstairs. It also has a huge back garden and parking, which is at a premium in Padstow. The house itself could do with a little TLC in places, but it's a great house. The lovely touch of choosing which hamper you'd like for your arrival is fabulous and we were really impressed with the contents (and size) of the hamper. Overall, highly recommended!
