Property Description
Close to the premier visitor destination of Padstow, this traditional white-washed Cornish Cottage stands in the heart of the pretty village of Little Petherick (opposite its 14th century Parish church and nestled beside the road). Inside its quirky layout, Ball Cottage boasts a wealth of character complemented by contemporary twists. The period features of stripped oak floorboards softened with colourful rugs, chalky neutral decor adorned with original local artwork and hand-picked furniture dressed with interesting artefacts and fabrics combine in understated elegance. There are three generous bedrooms, including a master double with an en-suite shower room and a children's twin bedroom, all of which are equipped with crisp cotton bed linens and thick fluffy towels. For relaxation, there is the chance to prepare a fresh barbecued fish supper in the enclosed sun trap courtyard garden, which offers a good level of privacy, or in the cooler months head for the spacious sitting room, stoke up the open fire and snuggle up with a book from the shelf. When you are ready to explore the surrounding area you will find it a convenient launch pad for coastal adventures with the Atlantic coastline and the sandy beaches at Harlyn Bay and Constantine within a 10 minute drive. Padstow is a hive of activity in the summer months - a visit to Rick Stein's famous fish and chips restaurant or a Cornish ale at one of the harbourside watering holes is popular among visitors. Excellent golf courses are easily accessible and walking boots are a must as scenic footpaths await exploration starting at Little Petherick Creek and onto 'Saint's Way', an ancient trail connecting Padstow to Fowey.
