Romantic Retreats in Padstow for a Valentine’s Stay
Padstow is made for time together. Walk hand-in-hand along the beach, enjoy candle-lit dinners by the sea and share adventures by bike, board or boat. Spend cosy evenings beside the log burner and slow mornings in bed, watching the ocean twinkle in the distance.
This Valentine’s, surprise your loved one with a romantic break to North Cornwall, staying in one of these handpicked romantic retreats in Padstow.
Gallery Cottage, Padstow
Sleeps 4
Have breakfast in bed or pad down your spiral staircase for coffee in the morning rays from the window seat of your cosy cottage. Seconds from Padstow harbour, you can slip down to the water’s edge for freshly-baked pastries, and tread the coast path from rugged headlands to pearly bays, pausing for skin-tingling sea dips if you dare. Spend days by the sea doing the things you love, until sundown lures you to cocktail bars and candle-lit dining tables, or grab fish and chips and squirrel away in your romantic retreat.
Bumblebee Cottage, Padstow
Sleeps 4
Slip into a romantic break in a pretty macaroon-pink cottage a pebble’s skim from Padstow harbour. Swing open the stable door and step out for freshly-baked pastries, beach walks and rosy-cheeked adventures for two – why not hop on the foot ferry to Rock and stroll to the golden sands of Daymer Bay? Wherever you wander with your lover, come home to a cosy abode, where you can cuddle up beside the crackling fire in century-old Cornish stone walls.
Dew, Padstow
Sleeps 4
Open the sash windows and watch boats bob by while you sip coffee or wine in your romantic retreat nudging Padstow Harbour. Stay in and soak up the scenery and fresh sea air, or slip out for Michelin-starred dinners, afternoon tea, boat trips and beach days with your Valentine. With exposed stone walls fused with contemporary design, Dew is a delightful hideaway at the heart of Padstow.
1 Ruthys Lane, Padstow
Sleeps 4
Rise and shine under the rafters, brew coffee for two in your slate-floored kitchen, and cuddle up beside the woodburner after your fill of seaside adventures with your lover. Whether that’s pasties sitting on the quay, cycling along the Camel Trail or romantic dinners in one of Padstow’s foodie hotspots, your snug hideaway, a pebble’s skim from the harbour, is the perfect spot for a Valentine’s break.
Harlyn, Padstow
Sleeps 4
Ditch the car and enjoy a Valentine’s break bang in the heart of Padstow. Surely you’ll be tempted to spend romantic days away in your super-king-size bed and stylish apartment? But the sunshine through the shutters, the scents of seaside bakeries, and the sounds of the gulls will lure you to the shoreline for rosy-cheeked rambles, boat rides to Rock and just-caught seafood in some of the best restaurants in Cornwall.
Marshall Barton, St Issey
Sleeps 4
Are you and your Valentine seeking solitude in a cosy bolthole just outside of Padstow? If you’re the sort of couple that loves long walks in the countryside, cosy up in this historic barn close to the Saint’s Way – a pilgrimage route that crosses Cornwall between Padstow and Fowey. Don your walking boots and hike to your heart’s delight – coast or countryside, it’s up to you. Then come back and flop by the fireside, hit the local 17th-century inn for local food and drink, or celebrate Valentine’s at one of Padstow’s fine-dining restaurants.
Harlyn Barton, Harlyn
If you have a passion for surfing, walking or beach days, then make a break for this dog-friendly farmhouse at Harlyn. Here, you can spend days beside the waves, stomping scenic trails or tee-ing off at nearby Trevose Country Club. Whether you pause for coffee and cake at the cove-side café or bag a table for the 25-mile menu at The Pig in Harlyn, Cornwall’s finest food is at the heart of your holiday when you stay in this beautiful property in the grounds of historic Harlyn House.
7 Greenwaves, Trevone
Sleeps 4
Slip into beach life in a sleek apartment beside the shore at Trevone Bay, where you can watch the waves bounce across the bay from the balcony and see the sunset as you sink into the sofa together. Bedecked in mod-cons, here coastal living comes with a contemporary edge. But the real seduction is the sea pool, surf and beach sauna beckoning you out for saltwater adventures before cosying up in your high-spec hideaway.
