Description from owner
Description
This property is centrally located in Old Town Padstow. Originally, this was the Old Police House and has the tallest door in Padstow to accommodate the police hats worn in those days!
Pet friendly for up to two dogs - see note below.
The Quay and centre of town are on the doorstep, a level stroll away, but the house is perfectly positioned and a bit tucked back from the busy town streets.
The building comprises of two apartments and each apartment has the fantastic advantage of adjoining parking for one vehicle in the shared car park alongside the house.
PLEASE NOTE RE PARKING: Vans and very large MPV's would not fit in to our spaces as their length (more than 4.5m) would block access to other spaces further up, but we are happy to offer a full refund of parking costs if this is the case. The Quay car parks are a few minutes flat walk away and offer come and go long-stay tickets.
A standard family car, smaller MPV or standard estate car would be fine.
PETS: A maximum of two small to medium dogs are very welcome, although we do not accept dogs under 6 months old or any banned breeds. Please advise at the time of booking. We do not have any garden, but the Church Woods are only a short stroll up the lane for your dogs to enjoy morning and evening exercise, The town beaches are a longer walk in the other direction - about 15 to 20 mins. Most beaches and local pubs allow dogs.
Free Wi-Fi throughout
NEW ADDITION: Our apologies but, due to new fire regulations, we are now unable to allow charging or storage of electric bikes, scooters, or vapes inside. No extension lead charging of the above /electric cars.
APARTMENT 2 - ONE BEDROOM.
(Please also see the separate advertisement for 'The Old Police House - App 1' which is the two bedroomed upstairs apartment)
We would describe the apartment as 4 star Padstow accommodation, this one bedroomed - Apartment 2 is very comfortable, has character and is very well located. Linen is supplied, but please bring your own beach towels and flannels.
We take bookings for couples or singles in this apartment only.
A lot of improvements have been made recently, including double glazing throughout, slate hung exterior wall, new carpets throughout and lovely new bathrooms. Look out for more improvements over the forthcoming years!
Initial access is through the private rear stable door, although there is access through the front entrance, too. From this shared front hallway each apartment has its own access.
Apartment 2 is located on the ground floor, although there are a few steps to access the back entrance and two low steps up to the front entrance.
There is a good sized bedroom, with a Double Bed, off the interior hallway, along with a separate, newly refurbished bathroom, which has a roomy shower cubicle, featuring a waterfall shower, rather than a bath.
Also off the interior hallway is a Lounge/Diner which has a twin sofa and an armchair, with a Flat Screen Smart TV and DVD player. There is a small dining table and two chairs available.
The good-sized and well equipped Kitchen is separated from the lounge and has an electric 4-ringed hob, an electric oven with grill, and a microwave oven. There is also a fridge. Please do note: There is no dishwasher, washing machine or freezer within the property, although there is a nearby laundrette in Wadebridge.
There are new Electric Panel Radiators in the bedroom and lounge. These can be controlled easily by our guests.
There is a fan heater in the kitchen and bathroom, plus some spare electric heaters available, should they be needed. A cooling fan is supplied, too, for hot, summer months!
The hot water is electrically heated throughout.
There is access to the bin through a stable door at the rear of the property. The outside space belongs to the house at the rear, but the steps have shared access for both houses.There is double glazing, but the property is very central so please be prepared for a little passing noise, although the street is very quiet, generally.
Minimum booking is 3 nights, except for high season, when it is 4 nights or a week. Always ask if you require less as we try to help!
Check in is after 5pm. Check out is 10.00am.
If you are staying for two weeks, a local cleaner can come in after the first week for an additional fee of £25
Please do note that there is an apartment above this one. We have put new underlay in to keep noise to a minimum but, as in all old houses, it is impossible to completely mask.
We will require a home address for the main booker, a contact number and the names of all guests over 16yrs before entry codes are given, please.
There is a damage deposit arrangement and we will not tolerate deliberate damage to the property or excessive disturbance to the other apartment or our neighbours. Small breakages will not be charged for, but please let us know so they can be replaced for our next guests.

“The police house downstairs apartment”
This was our second stay and everything was perfect. This apartment is particularly good as my husband has difficulty walking and he was able to go straight out the door independently and walk to the town. Sally is a lovely host and is available when needed.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
