You can find all our up to date availability and prices on our Book Now page.

All bookings are secured with a 20% deposit (payable within 2 days of booking). The balance is payable 8 weeks prior to your arrival date.

We can take secure card payments via STRIPE. We can also accept payments via bank transfer and cheques.

If you would like to pay in regular instalments then that's fine - we can arrange that.

Our minimum stay is usually 3 nights in the less busy times, and 7 nights in the peak holiday season (with a changeover on a Friday). We are often flexible on the number of nights stay, so please get in touch if you have a request.

Glebe Cottage is a self-catering holiday home, so you will need to bring your own provisions, however our kitchen includes a full inventory of typical items you would find in your own kitchen so you shouldn’t need to bring anything else with you.

We include the following items to make your stay more comfortable :

• a welcome folder to help you with the property and the local area during your stay

• central heating (underfloor and radiators), hot water and internet

• high quality bed linen, hand and bath towels (please bring your own beach towels)

• a hairdryer

• larder basics - e.g. tea, coffee, sugar, salt and pepper, cooking oil

• dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll, tea towels and washing up liquid

• an initial stock of toilet rolls, refuse bags and cleaning products

• a basket of logs plus kindling and firelighters for us in the log burner and outdoor fire pit (please be aware that we do not have a fire guard)

• laundry facilities - washing machine, tumble dryer, clothes airer, washing line, iron and ironing board

Glebe Cottage has superfast fibre broadband with boosters that cover the whole house.

The Wi-Fi password will be given to guests prior to your arrival, and is also in the cottage Welcome Folder.

Glebe Cottage sleeps 8 adults easily, and up to 2 infants are also welcome. We also have a pull out Z bed, so we can accommodate 1 extra small person if required - please enquire about this.

All our beds have Hypnos mattresses, and the Superking and King both have luxury Toppers. The single beds are full size and the bedrooms are all spacious. There are no bunk beds! Each of the 4 bedrooms has it's own luxury ensuite with powerful showers.

Please invite your friends around to visit if you wish, but the maximum number of overnight guests should not exceed 8 (plus 2 infants), unless previously agreed.

Yes - all ages of children and babies are very welcome. A travel cot and a high chair are available for your use. Please just bring your own cot bedding.

We also have safety stair gates and other child friendly items. Just let us know prior to arrival if you would like them fitted.

You are welcome to bring your well behaved dogs with you to Glebe Cottage.

The Padstow area is perfect for dog-friendly holidays, with so much choice for lovely, varied walks through some of Cornwall’s most stunning countryside. And most of the local Pubs and Restaurants welcome dogs.

Dogs will be charged at £35 per pet per stay, with a maximum of two large, or 3 medium sized.

We provide throws that can be used to protect the sofas, and they should remain downstairs at all times. Please do not leave them unattended in the house - many thanks!

We do a thorough clean after every stay to ensure all dog hairs are clear so that every guest has a five star stay.

Yes! Corrina Smith offers a dog sitting service in the Padstow area. She can safely look after your 4 legged family members whilst you are out and about. They will be having a lovely time at the same time as you! You can find Corrina’s dog sitting service on Facebook and Instagram.

The garden is fully fenced, but one side of the garden has a typical Cornish slate wall, and so a very determined dog could probably make a leap for freedom.

Yes guests have sole use of the house and garden. We have a small annex in a separate area of the garden which we sometimes use on changeover days, so you may see us passing by.

After the booking has been paid in full, you will receive a pre-arrival email around a week before your arrival date which includes confirmation of the booking information, travel directions and how to access keys for the property.

Check in time is 4pm on the day of arrival, but you can usually drop off baggage and food for the fridge before this time. Just let us know your plans.

Check out is 10am on the day of departure. We may be able to extend this by prior arrangement.

The nearest beaches that are easily accessible by car are Trevone and Harlyn - both are under a 10 minute drive away. They each have a large car park with direct beach access.

The area is known as the 7 BAYS for 7 DAYS and there is no shortage of excellent family and dog friendly beaches close by. The 7 BAYS are Trevone, Harlyn, Mother Ivey's, Booby's, Constantine, Treyarnon & Porthcothan.

The Camel Estuary also has lots of little secret coves, which means even in the height of Summer you can always find a secluded spot to relax.

Yes of course! Take a look at our DAYS OUT page, or just message us if you would like some more ideas. There is nothing better than some local knowledge, and we would love to share our favourite places with you.

The local farm shop is a short drive away, and operates an Honesty Policy. It has a great selection of local meats, baked goods, dairy and treats. Padstow has an abundance of shops, restaurants, cafes, pubs as well as a chemist and post office. Wadebridge is also very nearby and has a large Tesco, LIDL, ALDI, B&M etc.

Yes - we have a large private driveway which can accommodate 3 large cars.

Please park on our drive and not on the farmer's track, as he needs access at all times.

Yes, there are several local taxi firms in the area, but it's always best to book them in advance. A list of taxi firms can be found on Rick Steins page here (please book early): Taxi Numbers

There is a convenient bus stop at the end of the drive, which has a regular service between Wadebridge and Padstow. From Padstow you can also take the scenic bus trip to Newquay which follows the coast road - and is well worth the trip!

The car is probably needed for trips further away.

We do everything possible to ensure you have a very enjoyable stay at Glebe Cottage, however should you need to get in touch, please don't hesitate to call or message us. We will also provide the contact of our local housekeeper.

We always advise you to take out travel insurance to cover any trip you have planned in case your circumstances change.

The payment for the holiday is non refundable, unless we can re-let the house, in which case we will refund in full (less any banking charges if incurred).
