Nestled on the edge of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with stunning coastal walks from the doorstep, enjoy sea views out to the Land’s End peninsula, the lights of nearby Mousehole and the lighthouse near Lamorna from this idyllic hideaway perfect for families looking to uncover everything South Cornwall has to offer.

After a long day’s adventure, get creative with the delicious local produce you’ve collected in the contemporary, light and bright kitchen and rustle up a hearty meal to tame the rumble of hungry tummies. Gather around the generous wooden dining table in the adjoining lounge/diner to plan tomorrow’s adventure before firing up the roaring wood burner and unwinding on the comfy sofa in front of the Smart TV. Head upstairs to either of the two rear bedrooms for a final glimpse of the sea before retreating for a peaceful doze; you also have two more bedrooms at the front of the upstairs to retire to for a well-earned rest. Indulge in far-reaching sea views by dining alfresco in the enclosed patio garden before catching some breathtaking sunsets melting over the horizon.

The most southerly working port in the country, the vibrant fishing town of Porthleven offers a 3-mile stretch of golden sand less than half a mile away, a bustling harbour half a mile away and an excellent selection of independent cafes, restaurants and art galleries showcasing the best local produce South Cornwall has to offer. Nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are countless walks around the town and along the South West Coast Path that’ll reward you with fabulous cliff-top views. Uncover the true beauty of this area by exploring the iconic castle-topped island of St Michael’s Mount reached across a tidal causeway from Marazion (9.5 miles).

Clean and well equipped cottage. Nice bedrooms. Well furnished rooms. Equipment all works efficiently. Good to have a couple of single rooms. A pleasant walk to town and beach with park and green pace for kids and pets. Nice to have downstairs cloakroom and drying rack in kitchen.

Cottage is in a good location however it is worth noting it is at the top of a steep hill. Porthleven is beautiful with the shingle beach and working harbour. There are lots of small independent shops and some lovely places to eat including the Harbour Inn (the seafood sharing platter was delicious) Porthleven is very dog friendly and this made Read moreour holiday even more enjoyable. Parking at the cottage is great and the garden is lovely. We had great weather and it would be helpful to have a garden parasol and some outdoor seat cushions. Inside the cottage the sofas, could do with updating as unfortunately they are tired and rather uncomfortable. Two of the bedrooms have king sized beds (we slept very well) and there is plenty of storage. Porthleven is a great base for visiting Falmouth, the Lizard Peninsula, St Ives and St Michaels Mount.

An excellent well furbished property within easy walking distance to the town. A bonus was to have parking with the property as parking in Porthleven is not always easy to find. My family and I loved the property and only wished we could have made the time to spend longer.
