Property code: OC-9STELV

The romantic retreat is located in the seaside town of Porthleven on Cornwall’s south coast. Enjoy wild and windy walks along the beach and coast paths, or head to nearby Praa Sands (5 miles) for a traditional day at the seaside. At the end of the day, dine in one of the town’s many restaurants, or sip a glass of wine on your private balcony.

The light and airy first-floor apartment is reached via stairs and features stylish accessories, and tones that complement the surrounding landscape. An open-plan living space comprises a sleek kitchen, where you can whip up a delicious dinner for two, a dining table, and a comfortable lounge area for relaxing. Here, you’ll find a plump sofa to stretch out on and watch the Smart TV, as well as a stylish, round armchair to curl up in with a good book. When it’s time for bed, wash away the day in the en-suite bathroom and retire to the elegant double bedroom for a good night’s rest. Outside, you’ll have a small balcony with a bistro set for enjoying your morning coffee and watching the world go by.

Porthleven is a photographer’s paradise, with weather-beaten cottages, colourful boats bobbing in the harbour, and a wild and rugged beach that stretches for 3 miles. After a long walk, snuggle up in one of the traditional mariners’ pubs for a hearty meal, or dine out in one of the town’s celebrated seafood restaurants. Porthleven has a vibrant arts and crafts scene, and you’ll find several cute shops to pick up mementos from your trip. From the property, it’s easy to take day trips to St Michael’s Mount and the beautiful Lizard Peninsula (both within 10 miles).

A beautiful apartment, comfortable, clean and everything you need for a wonderful stay. Even though there was no harbour view there were views over the rooftops to the other side of the harbour which was lovely. Great eateries and gift shops on doorstep.

This was a great, exceptionally comfortable property. Clean, well looked after, great decor and honestly one of the best properties we have rented for a holiday. Location was perfect and the apartment was spotlessly clean. Highly recommended.

Pros- We had a lovely holiday the apartment was very clean comfortable and modern and Porthleven is amazing. Cons- I booked and paid early whereas others got it quite a bit cheaper for the same time of year not much longer after I had booked!
