Property code: OC-1HIGHB

This beautiful cottage situated right alongside the South West Coast Path and just a ten minute walk into Porthleven, is ideal for a family or a group of friends looking for a relaxing holiday. The property boasts magnificent sea views and is a lovely place for a get together. A walk along the coast path to the east of the cottage will take you to Loe Bar (1 mile), a shingle bank separating the sandy beach from Loe Pool, famous for being the largest freshwater lake in Cornwall and a haven for wildlife.

This spacious two-storey house with a contemporary and chic interior has vibrant, bold decor and furnishings throughout. The reverse-level design makes the most of the wonderful coast views from the living room on the first floor. On the ground floor are two bedrooms - one king-size with an en-suite shower room and a twin room. Both rooms have sea views. Upstairs is the living room with plush sofas to relax in at the end of the day and a Smart TV to watch your favourite films. A splendid conservatory with comfortable seating is the perfect place to chat or enjoy a leisurely breakfast. The kitchen has all you need to prepare some memorable meals to linger over in the dining room. A king-size bedroom and a bathroom complete the offer of this attractive coastal property. Outside is a terraced garden with seating and a BBQ area, perfect for stargazing or al fresco dining.

The little harbour town of Porthleven is a quintessential Cornish fishing port, meaning the town is a great spot to enjoy some deliciously fresh seafood. Porthleven Beach is less than 0.5 miles away and is great for water sports enthusiasts or the golden sand is perfect for building sandcastles. The picturesque town of St Ives (17.5 miles) is a lovely day out or explore the iconic St Michael’s Mount (10 miles) – a must-see Cornish attraction. Nature lovers can head to the Seal Sanctuary at Gweek (9 miles) to learn more about the local sea life.

Clean, comfortable, cosy and really well-equipped. It felt like a real home rather than just a holiday cottage. Good location with a good range of restaurants within a 10-15 minute walk on good pavements with good lighting. Getting in and out of the driveway was a bit quirky and getting out of the village involved some short sections of single tRead morerack roads. But we just got used to that and loved our stay there. Shame about the weather!!! Hide

Excellent holiday property in an excellent location. Loved the spacious parking, large patio, BBQ, quality kitchen which was fully stocked with glassware, crokery and all manner of cooking pans and utensils. Everything works and the standard of clenliness was very good. the sunroom is huge and great when the weather is cool/rainy.

1 Highburrow has to be one best properties we have stayed in. Ideal location for a short walk to the harbour and a good starting point for some beautiful walks. Very quiet location with lovely sea views. The house itself has everything you would need and more. Beautiful decor and very comfortable. Would definitely return .

No.1 Highburrow proved to be a good location within walking distance of the town and coastal path walks. The house was excellent and offered good parking which is a bonus in Porthleven. We would recommend this house to friends and family.
