Location
Grandpa Dickson's is a stylish, detached cottage in the peaceful hamlet of Little Petherick, deep in a beautiful, wooded valley 2 miles from Padstow. The house sleeps up to six people in three bedrooms and has a family bathroom and a shower room. Big, light, bright and stylish open plan living area with kitchen, sitting area and dining area with lovely oak flooring throughout. Outside, gardens on three sides and a private balcony with table, chairs and barbecue, plus off road parking for three cars. Grandpa Dickson's is a quiet, stylish all-year-round holiday home, handy for families wanting to explore this attractive part of north Cornwall.
Set in a wooded valley at the head of a tidal creek running up from the Camel Estuary, this tiny hamlet of Cornish stone houses exudes peace and tranquillity. Footpaths lead in all directions - across the fields, over to the next village, down the creek to the estuary and along the water's edge to Padstow.
Cornwall's visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain's premier holiday destinations.
Reviews of Grandpa Dickson's
"A wonderful holiday home in a quiet location. It's stylish with lovely art work dotted around . There are books to read , DVDs to watch and even paints,bushes and paper if you get inspired . A well.equpped kitchen with dish washer and washing machine . Ample parking . A dog friendly garden meant they could run around. Fascinating to watch all the different little birds coming to the feeder on the decking We decided to take the Saints trail into Padstow , not a walk for the feinthearted , it dips and climbs and also crosses the river by a really narrow bridge , not very enjoyable. I would recommend this as a good place to explore Cornwall . Our favourite visit was to the Minack Theatre and the fantastic beach next to it ."

"Grandpa Dicksons, what a find. We had a great week staying here, super quiet and very secluded. Looks good from the outside, well wait until you see the interior, so nicely decorated throughout. Warm and welcoming surroundings, a lovely open plan kitchen and lounge area, perfect for sociable cooking. Every last little detail at Grandpa Dicksons has been taken care of. For us it was great as being dog friendly we were able to bring out Lab and Dalmatian. We spent our days walking many of the routes in a welcome folder. If you like cooking the owners have every pot, pan, utensil and piece of crockery you could ever need. A fantastic, well loved and looked after cottage, thank you for letting us stay."
