Hidden beaches, clifftop walks and
 picture-perfect sunsets. Slip into a slower pace of life in the traditional Cornish village of St Issey.

With Cornish slated walls, original beams and restored fireplaces, ARC Padstow has been returned to its glory days as an 18th century
manor house. Having served as both a mill and a courthouse, it’s now an ideal venue for trips away with friends or family, corporate stays or wellness retreats – generously accommodating 26 people with a bar area, Swedish-style hot tub, kids’ playroom and fire pit.

  • House Brochure

Behind its Georgian facade, ARC Padstow has been reimagined to host 26 guests in style. The generous 18th century living spaces in the manor house have been restored and the old stables converted to a modern dining room that opens up onto a sunlit private garden.

A bar, kids’ playroom, alfresco kitchen with pizza oven and Braai, wood-fired hot tub and firepit means there’s plenty to do, both indoor and out.

A state-of-the-art kitchen with Miele appliances and communal island is the heart of the home while huge dining tables, both indoor and outdoor, invite guests to linger: sharing food, stories and wine.

A wonderful few days exploring the North of Cornwall from st Issey and Little Petherick to Port Isaac with sea salty air, spots of surprise sunshine as well as gorse and three-cornered leek covered coastal and estuary walks

“The art on display is well curated and gives the house an unique ambiance. The option to book a chef is fantastic and we had the most delicious meal.”

Marie, 2024

It was a JOY to gather a group of us to go and hang out at the beautiful ARC house near Padstow for a cosy few days eating and nattering. It’s such a gorgeous space to get the gang together in and cook up lots of feasts.
