Property code: OC-PC054

A modern house overlooking Portreath Harbour and within 500 metres of this bustling village’s attractive sandy beach. Perfect for families or groups of friends that love to be beside the seaside, the house offers a large lounge, three versatile bedrooms and front and rear gardens.

Set in a quiet residential area in the heart of the village, the house has been sympathetically furnished with comfort and relaxation firmly in mind. Get together as a group in the airy lounge, a traditionally-styled space which features exposed wooden ceiling beams. The neighbouring kitchen/diner awaits the ingredients needed to create everything from hearty brunches to late-night suppers, and it’s from here that you’ll access the rear patio garden. The double bedroom, twin bedroom and bunk bedrooms on the first floor all have ample storage space, with the convenience of a family bathroom close by. There is enough room in the small enclosed front lawn for children’s games, while the views from the rear patio are best enjoyed with fortifying refreshments at sunset.

Portreath is a small village centred around its harbour and large sandy beach, with plenty of cafes, shops and dog-friendly pubs to visit in between times. Portreath is a popular water sports destination, as are the beaches at Gwithian and Porthtowan (within 6.5 miles). The 11-mile Coast to Coast Trail between Portreath and Devoran, an old mineral tramway, is a huge hit with walkers and cyclists, and a great way to learn about the industrial history of the area.

As I have mentioned above, the property itself was absolutely fine and well presented, however, we will not be returning to stay in Portreath because of the odour issue.

This property is in the perfect location on Portreath harbour and it is lovely to hear the sea so close by day and night. The seating on the harbour side of the property is ideal for reading in the shade in the afternoon and there was even the opportunity to buy freshly caught fish on occasion. The property is well equipped with very good quality kRead moreitchen units which make everything easy from the start and a home from home. The WIFI is excellent and the seating is comfortable. Upstairs everything is provided for a good nights sleep with towels included and the bathroom has a quality shower. Cream tea and scones were provided to welcome us and coffee and tea was provided even enough dishwasher tablets to keep us going. I wouldnt hesitate to book another holiday here you have everything you want from Cornwall on the doorstep and dont need to drive out anywhere. Hide

Such a splendid cottage right by the quay, really,really comfortable and we felt so at home. I do wish we had booked for at least another week there is so much nearby but also Falmouth and St Ives are only 30 mins away ( or Less ! !) We will come again if its available. jeremy and Georgina

The Moorings is clean and has everything a family needs. It is very comfortable and couldnt be in a better position on the harbour. The beach is on the doorstep and hearing the water in the harbour from the back bedroom at night is lovely. There is room to sit outside at the front of the property and the back and comfortable outdoor chairs are prRead moreovided. The kitchen is well equipped and the dishwasher is a big plus along with a tumble dryer. Its brilliant having everything on the doorstep and not having to drive around at all. You cant beat the central position of The Moorings. Hide
