Carol who runs the B&B is absolutely delightful and we only stayed one night on Friday in Padstow but she made us feel so welcome for that short time ! She is ideally situated for a short walk down the hill into the town and that is what we wanted as opposed to the difficulties of parking in the town... More

We were made very welcome at this great place. The room was lovely / bed comfortable and room and shower room spotlessly clean ! Nothing was too much trouble and requests were met with a friendly and quick response. The breakfast was exceptional - delicious home made fruit compote, eggs from the owners chickens and very tasty sausages. Home made... More

Our third visit to Number 8 and we wouldn't chose anywhere else in Padstow. Carol makes you feel very welcome. There is a good home cooked breakfast with Carol's home made jams and eggs from her own hens. The room is comfortable and clean. The car park space is great and enables you to make the short stroll into Padstow.

We had a most wonderful time and felt really welcome. Carols beautiful b&b is definitely a home from home for us and our dog, Tara. The rooms are amazing and spotless. We loved the food and the toast which is made with bread from Steins bakery. Nothing was too much trouble for Carol. She made us feel like family. We... More

My stay at Number 8 was great! Carol helped me feel right at home, with her fantastic cooking and local tips. Number 8 is well located just a short walk from the harbour, has off-road parking, is bright and very comfortable throughout. Perfect for my stay and an excellent start to my break!

I stayed there with my sister in July this year for 2 nights. It was very clean, very friendly and the breakfast excellent with plenty of choice. Carol Gidlow made us more than welcome. there was also off the road parking which is an extra bonus

A very good find. I stayed one night but this would make a good base for a few days as it has a sitting room. It is very clean and very comfotable with thought for the little things travellers need. Breakfast was excellent. It's very close to the centre of Padstow, but no worries with the parking!

Stayed here for one night in May, prior to our starting our walk along the South West Coast Path. Excellent accommodation, where we were well looked after and sent on our way with a hearty breakfast. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone without hesitation. Geoff & Nick. Bournemouth Dorset.
