The location is highly praised for being close to Padstow, beaches, and the coastal path, offering a quiet and peaceful environment. The only drawback mentioned was the potholed road, which made it difficult for wheelchair access.

We had a really lovely stay in Nelly's House. It is small but beautiful and very cosy and had everything we needed for a week of walking the coastal path.We had a superb Sunday lunch at the Cornish Arms which is the nearest pub and in St Merryn is Barnecuts Bakery(brilliant doughnuts!), and a few takeaways. The only thing I would advise is to take mugs with you as there were only cups and saucers.
