The apartment is lovely but could do with a bit of a makeover . This includes white goods . For example the coffee maker and toaster has been there for ten years and I have never been able to get the coffee maker to work properly.

Boiler not working when we arrived , but was fixed quickly

Harbour Holidays - first class Cornish Accommodation

We stayed at Teazers and which is in the heart of the harbour in Padstow. A superb position and a first class apartment which is so well equipped. This was our 5th visit to this apartment so I think the repeat visits speak for themselves. Harbour Holidays are very easy to book the apartment through and they put an Easter card and Egg in the apartment as we arrived on Easter Saturday which was a lovely touch.

This is a great base to visit so many wonderful places both on the north and south coast and you are spoilt for choice with places to eat lovely quality, local food.

We've been visiting Padstow for 5 yrs and this was our 8th rental and by far our favourite. Fantastic week in Gulland and Harbour Holidays were really helpful. Looking forward to going back soon, location is perfect. We'd our baby with us and the ere was room in the hallway downstairs to leave our pram. Highly recommend!

2 The Strand

We stayed at 2The Strand which is a small 2 bed right in the centre of padstow. It’s great for being in the mix and you can watch what is happening before you leave. As usual all beeches nearby were amazing and we had great weather

A great company and great property!

We have booked with HH for many years and as usual this week they didn’t disappoint. A really slick and efficient service (loved the info app that was sent prior to the holiday); they even phoned to let us know that as the property was already cleaned that we could access it early!
We stayed at 44 Treverbyn Road which was a fantastic property; stylish, very spacious, well equipped and close to the Camel trail with a quick walk into Padstow. My only minor comment would be that although inside 44 Treverbyn was top-notch, it looked a bit tired externally and could do with a spruce up. Other than that it was fab: and we will be going again to that property.

Amazing flat in a top spot

Mary’s Flat in Padstow was lovely and clean, had comfy beds and was in a fabulous location. We sat on the balcony everyday just watching the world go by. We wouldn’t hesitate to book it again in the future. The only thing we missed was curtains in the lounge and bedrooms to help block out the light.

Excellent Company

We have been visiting Constantine Bay for about 20 years but have never booked through HH’s before. They were extremely efficient organising the visit, with very good communication. They appear to be small and very personal and always pleasant. It was especially helpful when they called us to-let us know the property was available sooner than expected. The property was exactly as described and having used most of the other agencies, I think HH has proved to be the best.

Sundance - truly gorgeous

Stayed at Sundance. Wow what a fabulous cottage. Recently extended with an amazing sunny terrace that gets sun all day. We had breakfast out there and ‘sundowners’ at 6pm. The bedding and mattresses were so comfy. Harbour Holidays were kind, informative and professional. Thank you.

The service and property were excellent.

The service from Harbour Holidays is excellent and the property we rented for 2 weeks in March was of a high standard and as described. It was well equipped except for a microwave. The property was in the centre of Padstow, just a short walk to shops, pubs and restaurants but quiet. The parking place for one car was a bonus.

Pentire, Harbour View apartment

Stayed at Pentire, Harbour View apartments, Padstow, booked directly with Harbour Holidays. This was a beautiful, spacious apartment with everything you needed and the furnishings and contents were all excellent quality. Right on the harbour side, the views were amazing. The added bonus was the allocated parking space again on the harbour.

There was a slight issue when we arrived but Harbour Holidays responded immediately and resolved the issue, even though it was late Saturday afternoon. We then received a gift from the owner (thank you) apologising for any inconvenience we had had.

I would definite recommend Harbour Holidays as the staff were extremely professional, helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble and they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. Which it was. Would definitely stay here again and use Harbour Holidays.

Great cottage in a brilliant location

Great cottage in a brilliant location. Easy access to beaches, walks and pubs. The cottage itself is super well equipped with a big kitchen with everything you could need. Sundance was perfect for our family of 4.

4 The Red Brick Building

Stayed in 4 The Red Brick Building for a week. Good situation for the town and overlooks harbour. Well equipped. Quiet. Parking space available but if cars parked on either side, it would be very difficult to get in/out for family sized car.

Not a bad review for Harbour Holidays.

We have used Harbour Holidays whenever we come to Padstow, and will continue to do so. We have never had a problem . We booked Bumblebee Cottage this time, We knew there wasn't any parking. I did call Harbour before we booked regarding another query. We knew where the cottage was, and I mentioned the unloading of the car, I was told it was a quiet road. It is not. We were worried about stopping and unloading as the cottage is on a bend. The huge sand lorries come past quite early in the morning, plus the coaches, buses and cars all the time. I felt we were on waving terms with the lorry drivers. The house itself was good. It was clean, recently decorated and had nice furniture. We had a problem with the cooker, couldn't get the oven on as well as the grill. Only 1 saucepan if you want to cook. The patio wasn't very clean. I know it's been a wet winter but it needed attention and weeding. A lot of velux windows which could do with a clean. Some hangers were broken, so it was difficult to hang clothes. It was a short walk to the harbour. We love Padstow so we will be coming again. I did get a call on the day of arrival to let us know we could get into the cottage early, which was much appreciated.

Sarah’s View, Padstow

Recently had a week at Sarah’s View, Padstow. Lovely clean property and plenty of room for 4 adults. 10 minute walk from the centre of Padstow. Easy access to shops, pubs and restaurants.Good location to explore other local beach’s ie Trevone, Constantine Bay and Mawgan Porth. Appreciated the call from Harbour Holidays on our journey down to let us know we could have an early check in. Would highly recommend the company and the property.
