With easy access to the harbour town of Porthleven, this dormer bungalow is set on the hillside and enjoys stunning sea views. Welcoming couples, friends and families, plus a canine companion, it’s a delightful, year-round retreat, with a garden for summer BBQs and a wood burner for cosy winter evenings.
This spacious family-friendly house has a relaxed yet chic feel. The kitchen is a light, bright space that’s conveniently arranged with everything you’ll need for preparing delicious meals, and the lounge/diner has space for a dining table at one end, by enormous windows facing the sea. At the opposite end, soft seating surrounds a wood burner and a Smart TV. If you can’t get enough of the beautiful views, head to the sun room, where huge bay windows and a telescope will help you observe the sparkling waves. Two of the three bedrooms, a twin (super-king on request) and a single, both with wonderful sea views, are also on this floor, sharing a bathroom with a shower over the bath, while upstairs you’ll find the third bedroom, a king-size, with yet more stunning sea views, an en-suite shower room and a separate WC. Children and dogs will enjoy the lawn and outside areas, while adults can relax around the picnic table and enjoy an alfresco drink or even a BBQ.
Elevated above the fishing village of Porthleven, the house is about half a mile from its harbour, shops, pubs, galleries and places to eat. An excellent selection of high-quality restaurants means you can try wood-fired pizza one night and freshly caught fish the next. From here there’s a variety of lovely walks, both inland and on the coast. Family friendly Praa Sands is just 5.5 miles away, while iconic St Michael’s Mount is 10 miles and St Ives only 17 miles.
