Loved the 500 year old building and location was superb but the owners and staff made it a perfect vacay. Stephen & Donna went above and beyond. Will definitely come back.
Located on Padstow’s busy harbor front, the 4-star Padstow Harbor Hotel features views of the town and Camel Estuary. There is a popular restaurant as well as bright, individually styled rooms.

The breakfast was just what we needed to get our day started. The food was hot and fresh.

I have been visiting Port Isaac for over 30 years.
I have been visiting Port Isaac for over 30 years. The sea is very attractive, but the village in general appeared tatty, dirty and not gardened. Some houses have expensive renovations, but are sitting empty! The business were similar, which put us off eating at them. The Golden Lion, is full of unchanged character & a good average meal / pint. The jetty fish shop is also good. The co-op is an asset.

Port Isaac is lovely, but access for anyone with walking problems is difficult. It is very steep and not really accessible by car. Parking is at least 20 minutes away.
The School House is a great place to eat.

Port Isaac is a glorious, historic fishing village in North Cornwall. On the harbour level, you'll find a higgledy-piggledy assortment of lanes packed with beautiful, picture-perfect cottages. Also on this level is the beach/harbour itself, a great pub and several tourist shops and restaurants that specialise in locally caught seafood (including Nathan Outlaw's fantastic restaurant).
On Port Isaac's top levels, you'll find shops and more independent restaurants.
It's a really atmospheric, special place, framed by the rugged Cornish coastline. However, be warned: it gets VERY busy in peak season (a nightmare for parking), so consider a stay during quieter times.

It's such a beautiful place to visit all year round.
It's such a beautiful place to visit all year round. Unfortunately, it happened to me to visit it in autumn but anyway, I enjoyed both visits. I believe in summertime it should be outstanding to be there. I would definitely recommend visiting it if you want an escape from the busy city. I would recommend you to visit the Newquay too. It's worth it.

A beautiful, peaceful village. Cornish people so lovely.
A beautiful, peaceful village. Cornish people so lovely. The village is isolated but depicts everything we know it for on the tv and movies (Doc Martin and Fishermen’s Friends). It does not disappoint. But there is much more. artists, nice eateries and gift shops. Also great history and sense of community. It is a relaxed pace to just chill. There are hills and cobblestones streets - but accessible for most. Take a walking tour to find out about history, movie making and life in the village. No access for cars so you must be able to walk everywhere. Do need to use buses or have a car if you wish to explore more of Cornwall. Transport is an issue. Do your research if you are train travellers. If touring then 1 full day and night in Port Isaac a must. Very safe. Loved it! There is a small Co-op. Suggest you take alcohol eg scotch with you if you feel like drink in your accommodation - as not a lot on offer. A range of restaurants. Such fresh seafood. If you have a self contained unit you can buy fresh and eat in. But restaurants offer seafood specials.

It is a beautiful fishing village with lots of good restaurants and shops. Picturesque! We enjoyed our tour of Doc Martin and seeing the scenes from Fishermen’s Friends movie. We would definitely come again but find a day trip would have covered it along with the terrific hike to Port Quinn.
Great location in the little town of Port Isaac. It is a very small cottage and typical of most homes in the area. Once we got used to being snug and had unpacked and stowed our luggage under the bed we found that everything we needed to be comfortable was in fact there. The bed was comfortable and the duvet fluffy and warm. The heaters were efficient and warmed the cottage up quickly. From the bedroom window you can see the harbor and with it open a little we could hear the ocean at night - lovely.
The Slipway is located right near the harbor in Port Isaac. It's very easy to walk to all of the common "Doc Martin" sites, and along the coast. Port Isaac is a beautiful setting.
The restaurant at the Slipway was good, though not very vegetarian friendly. They accommodated us for dinner even though they were closing up. Note that all the nearby restaurants were closed by the time we were ready for dinner.
Jamie was such an outstanding member of the staff at the hotel. He went out of his way to help us in every way that he could. He managed the hotel exceptionally well in every way. The Longcross Hotel are so lucky to have him in their employ. We cannot praise Jamie highly enough. He also cooked breakfast when we were there and we have to say it was really top notch. So friendly and welcomed us from the start.
nothing not to love! wow it was a dream come true to stay here with our family of six. do not hesitate to book this once in a lifetime property! we even loved it so much we got some local seafood and cooked one night of our trip. you can walk to the Harbour with a drink in hand in one minute. the best rental we have ever booked!!! thank you for such a lovely memory we will always treasure
Brilliant location, and a cute, quirky picture-perfect cottage. Everything you need to have a comfortable stay is there - a small kitchen with amenities, a living room and a very comfortable bedroom. Perfect for a solo traveller or couple.
It is literally a one-minute walk away from the harbourfront and the sea and is nestled in Port Isaac's old town's higgledy-piggledy lanes.
Quality of food was very good at breakfast (particularly liked the overnight oats with fruit compote) and the one evening meal we had, but sadly let down by the indifferent and at times abrupt and offhand service. Hotel situated between Port Isaac and their sister hotel at Port Gaverne directly opposite Nathan Outlaw's New Road restaurant where we had a fantastic meal.
Brilliant place excellent location. Would stay again. Would like to see all bed sheets and towels included in the price and not have to do it separately through rental company. All else is totally worth staying here. Thank you. We had a great time. And I've been visiting Port Isaac for 55 years. It's still the same. Love this place.
Fabulous location, stayed over Christmas and lovely treats left for us. So much more room than the photos show. Very warm with lots of added extras as in toiletries etc. Bedding so clean and comfortable and right in the heart of Port Isaac with no noise at all. Can't wait to go back. Also the outhouse is an added bonus.
It was easy to find and not far from the harbour in Port Isaac. It was a clean and well equiped property, which stood up to the challenges of Storm Dudley and Storm Eunice! I was easily accessible by road and there was a parking space in front of the house.
The Slipway was beautiful old building right in the middle of Port Issac. Our room was beautifully decorated with lots of light from a huge window. We ate a delicious lunch there and the breakfast was terrific.
Our rooms were spacious and clean, and beds were comfortable. The breakfasts were excellent, and our one meal in the hotel dining room was very good. Both the restaurant and bar service was excellent.
The location. Place was very clean and well equipped. Comfortable beds and lovely bedding and towels provided. Easy walk to Port Isaac Harbour and Port Gaverne.
