The Old Custom House is a characterful inn right on Padstow’s harbour, praised for friendly staff, tasty breakfasts and pub food, and lovely harbour views, though some rooms feel dated, noise can travel, and access involves many stairs.

Great breakfast. Comfortable rooms. Very helpful and friendly staff. Lots to see in Padstow. Some noise from the pub in the building at night and carpets could use a refresh, especially in common areas.
