A pretty little cottage with wonderfully quirky details, The Old Post Office was a welcome and cool retreat at the end of each day in this summer's heatwave. We've not been to North Cornwall for over 20 years and had forgotten how beautiful it is. Such a rocky and stunning coastline, with sweet little coves and harbours and wide, sandy beaches. We recommend a trip to Crackington Haven with it's super cafe and swallows nesting in the rocks. Port Isaac, Padstow, Rock, Boscastle and Tintagel Castle are a 'must mooch' and Bedruthan Steps an incredible sight...either to view from the coastal path or walk to after a snack at the cute National Trust cafe (go early, it gets busy). And finally, the 15th Century St Kew Inn nestled in the gorgeous hamlet of St Kew, the perfect place to have a cool drink and a delicious meal at the end of another busy day of meandering the coastline. North Cornwall is a great place to explore, and The Old Post Office is a super little cottage to call 'base' for a week......

very comfortable, just two of us so rooms were good size. Good double room and twin singles in other bedroom. Light and warm useful as the nights chill. We were not disturbed by local traffic. Great for local walking. Easy to get to Port Isaac and the coast for further walking. Local driving easy, land and sea views everywhere once out of the village. I would highly recomend this property....

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this cottage as we loved it so much the first time. The beds are comfy, a well stocked kitchen and it has everything you’ll need for your stay. Located in a small, quiet hamlet, it is a perfect location for us. It’s just over a mile to Port Isaac so an easy walkable distance to there and Port Gaverne. As we had the car, it’s also accessible to many other places to visit for a day trip and to park at Bodmin train station to go further afield. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here!...
