Situated in a quiet part of town, just a 10 minute walk from the bustling fishing harbour of Padstow, Beau Vista First Floor Apartment is in a fantastic position. With some of the north coast’s best beaches on your doorstep, boat trips, sailing, cycling and a myriad of restaurants to choose from, you could stay for a month and still not experience all the area has to offer. It’s a fabulous property in a fabulous place and visitors return year after year to enjoy it.

Spacious apartment in wonderful location.

Thank you for your review. I am so sorry about the bird mess, we have a maintenance chap that did clean it before your stay, the birds must have messed after he had cleaned and before your stay, really unlucky. We are hot on this as we do know they can make quite a mess, if you do give us another go and stay there again then we can always send someone over to clean it off if it’s that bad- no worries at all. Really glad you enjoyed the view, it’s totally stunning. We do hope to welcome you back in the future. Many thanks Cornish Seaview Cottages

A fantastic place to stay, beautiful views, very spacious, great value for money and excellent staff

We booked this place for our mums 60th and it was nothing short of wonderful. The views were beautiful over the bay, the living area was huge. The staff were really lovely and helpful. We would definitely recommend it and would love to stay again at some point. Value for money was great too. Thank you

Out third visit to this wonderful property and we hope to visit again. Well located just outside the centre of lovely old town Padstow with an easy walk to all the local places of interest (albeit a short, steep walk on the way back) and close to the Camel Trail for walks and cycling.

Large property with priceless views across the Camel estuary. Fabulous master suite with king+ bed, bath + shower and balcony with that fabulous view. Large lounge and three other bedrooms (one en suite), third bathroom and a cloakroom. Large kitchen/diner with all necessary appliances. Outside space for use of residents (some shared).

Sleeps up to 8 in comfort. Property is a little tired and outdated in places but spotlessly clean and has been maintained between visits. Parking a bit tight if upper and lower apartments each have two vehicles but manageable if all parties are sensible. Noise transmission between the two levels could be an issue but only a problem if one party is being inconsiderate and has never been a problem for us.

Cornish Seaview Cottages staff are very friendly, helpful and accommodating and local property manager very responsive: we have had minor issues which have been dealt with immediately.

This property is on the market with planning permission for redevelopment; being selfish we hope that doesn't happen too soon as we would like to visit again and again!

This was our second stay at this property and we hope to stay again. It's very spacious and offers absolutely stunning views of the estuary, the old railway bridge and across to Rock. It is well located for everythig the area has to offer and is only a few minutes walk to the Camel Trail and on to the centre of lovely Padstow (steep hill on the way back!).

It would benefit from a 'deep clean' but all the main areas and linens were spotless and everything worked; there was nothing to concern us.

The property itself is rather tired and has massive potential for updating but this is reflected in the price; if this potential is fully realised it would almost certainly price itself out of our range.

Parking is tight but manageable. We have only stayed in the upper apartment and are aware that noise travels easily between the two levels. Information sent in advance and that provided at the property (eg regarding rubbish collections) differ and need updating.

The letting agents, Cornish Seaview Cottages Ltd., are very friendly, helpful and eager to assist; excellent personal service which we would contrast with some larger organisations we have dealt with.

Overall: highly recommended provided the slight compromises above are understood. We hope to be back again!

We all had a very enjoyable stay in this well appointed, spacious, clean apartment. The views from the large lounge windows and balcony over the Camel Estuary with the changing tides and weather were a highlight. The location was good as we were able to walk into Padstow a great advantage as parking in the town at busy times would have been difficult. The proximity to Tesco for shopping was a bonus. There was a good choice of places to eat out at reasonable cost locally. There were many beautiful beaches nearby and places of interest. The town was busy but friendly with lots of attractive features and lovely walks.
Our only slight criticisms were that the parking was a bit tight and the outside appearance e.g. paintwork, garden, garden furniture, looked a bit uncared for.
Cornish Seaview Cottages were very efficient handling the booking, providing information and making personal contact just before the holiday. We knew who to contact in case of any problems encountered.

Wonderful views and location, interior needs updating

Starting with the good things about the property:

1) The location is unbeatable. High up so you get great views of the estuary, quiet and a short pleasant walk into town (10 mins). The views from the living room and the master bedroom are also incredible, panoramic and unobstructed, really gives it that wow factor.

2) The apartment is very large and the kitchen is well equipped, it is comfortable enough to feel a bit like a home from home.

The bad things about the property are as follows:

3) The interior is very outdated and tired out in many places. Drawers are hanging off furniture and doorknobs are loose/falling off, the sofas seem old and bathrooms tired. It seems as though owners are relying on the views to sell the property, taking those away it really is unremarkable on the inside.

4) The master bedroom has unfortunately no blackout curtains, making it very uncomfortable to sleep at night due to due night lights from next door flooding in, and waking up very early in summer due to the sun coming in. We thought that this wasn't acceptable that this hasn't been considered for a bedroom with so many windows.

5) The house was not thoroughly cleaned on our arrival, we found that the bin in the living room had lots of toenail clippings in it from the previous tenant. Very unpleasant to see.

I can imagine that this place is even more expensive in a peak season and so for that reason I think the interior could be improved to make it more value for money.

We love our visits to Beau Vista. We think the property could do with a bit of updating such as the kitchen especially the cooker. Also the bed in the main room isn’t particularly comfortable and the lighting in the sitting room not great for reading. However the price is good and it is generally very comfortable with good dishwasher, washing machine , tumble dryer etc and a great shower which you can move as opposed to a fixed head where you have to wash your hair whether you want to or not! We also like a separate kitchen as opposed to the general trend to have it in your sitting room. It is a beautiful location and you would find it hard to better that view! 10 minutes down to a marvellous selection of restaurants and 20 minutes back up the hill to work off a few of those calories! The parking could be easier but it’s fine. I understand it’s going to be made into 2 houses and we look forward to hopefully visit it next year and see the result!

To return to Beau Vista again but with all our family including 4 Grandchildren has been wonderful.
To have both apartments meant all 16 of us were catered for not only adequately but beautifully.
The outdoor space allowed for intergenerational games of football, sunbathing (we went in April!)
And just chilling and chatting.
Thankyou Beau Vista for these wonderful memories.
