Description

St Samson is a seaside haven for a couple or small family, looking for a quaint, characterful, and coastal-themed retreat in Port Isaac on the North Cornwall coastline.

Positioned just a few steps from Port Isaac’s harbour, this 400-year-old former fisherman’s cottage over three floors contains period features and provides traditionally furnished and styled accommodation for four.

After admiring the property’s unique and charming exterior, enter the ground floor to find an open-plan room with a kitchen, dining and sitting area with wonderful, exposed beams – the perfect place for socialising together after a day at the beach.

On the first floor is a separate sitting room for relaxing evenings in front of the Smart TV, as well as a double bedroom and family bathroom.

Built into the eaves on the second floor is a twin bedroom– with no door and limited head room, this is a snug, fun space for children to sleep!

Head down the road to ‘The Platt’ where in the summer months you can enjoy listening to the famed Fisherman’s Friends sing live on the quayside, or why not walk along the cliffs to nearby Port Gaverne, with its crystal-clear waters perfect for kayaking.

Within a short walk of St Samson are many fabulous restaurants, including two ran by celebrity chef Nathan Outlaw, meaning you will never be short of places to dine, particularly if you love seafood!

Further afield, Newquay with its surfing opportunities and zoo is just a scenic drive away, whilst the Camel Trail, which runs alongside the Camel Estuary and is popular with cyclists, starts at Wadebridge 8 miles away; why not hire bikes and follow the trail all the way to Padstow?

If you are looking for a peaceful getaway in cottage near the sea, then look no further the St Samson – a fabulous bolt hole for a couple or family with children.

We had a lovely week - the cottage was absolutely perfect for our needs.

Having the extra large kitchen was great - it meant that we were able to keep the dogs downstairs and therefore no chance of them affecting any carpets or furnishings. The location was great too - nice and quiet. The parking space was convenient - just up the hill. Loading/unloading the bags etc was a bit stressful but that can't be helped. And thanks for the welcome pack. We will definitely look to book again in future if available.

We had a superb few days in Port Isaac.

The cottage was lovely and comfortable and very close to the harbour.

The cottage was a beautiful position.

The beds were clean and comfortable. The cottage itself could do with some maintenance, and a decent clean. The hot tap in the kitchen didn’t work, a dribble but that’s it. The bathroom was quite dirty and all around the kitchen sink was filthy, same with the washing machine. Also had to unload the dishwasher and put away. Although the cottage had everything you need and was comfortable, the large kitchen table was lovely for meals. To be honest I don’t want anything to be to precious about with children on holiday.
