Property code: OC-ABCHAR

Combining contemporary design with lovingly preserved original features, this cosy family cottage, set on the Porthleven harbourside, comes complete with a warming wood burner, stylish shower room, and its own private patio garden.

Step inside this stunning dog-friendly property and be welcomed by an expansive open-plan living area that seamlessly blends contemporary touches with the charm of period features. A wood burner crackles invitingly within the stone fireplace, while a picturesque window seat offers a cosy nook to curl up and enjoy a good book. In the dining area, another stone fireplace sets the scene for intimate meal times. The galley kitchen is a chef’s delight, fully equipped with everything you need to whip up a storm. From here, French doors lead to the courtyard, where you can soak up the sun and dine alfresco. Rinse off the sand and sea in the shower room, complete with a luxurious walk-in rainfall shower. As you climb the stairs, discover three elegantly furnished bedrooms, with the double and twin rooms offering lovely harbour views. At the end of the day, indulge in a long soak in the tub in the second bathroom, also located on this floor.

Within 200 metres of your door, discover excellent pubs and eateries that offer a tantalizing taste of the local cuisine. Wander through the bustling streets and be enticed by the shops, bars, and galleries waiting to be explored. With Porthleven Beach less than 500 metres away, bask on the golden sands, paddle in the waters, and discover the fascinating world of rock-pooling on the pristine shores. Embark on a picturesque walk along the South West Coast Path, accompanied by your furry companion, and take in the spectacular vistas of the Cornish coastline. For history enthusiasts, a visit to the iconic St Michaels’ Mount at Marazion (8 miles) is a must, and for families with young ones, endless entertainment can be found at Flambards Theme Park, 3.5 miles away.

First visit to Porthleven - stunning! Beautiful weather, beaches and a home from home. Amelies very welcoming and dog friendly. Mousehole lovely village.

It has been many years since we have visited Cornwall. I have loved our time in the cottage and the area. With the weather kind we have walked east to Church Cove and west to Runsey Head. Our favorite was Runsey an old tin mine. It was strenuous, but amazing. Our trip to Lands End took us to the Minnack Theatre, this is a must. Good food at the ShiRead morep Inn and The Atlantic.

Thank you for a lovely week in your cottage. The weather has got better as the week went on. We loved St Ives, St Michaels Mount, Lands End (walk from Sennen Cove), Flambards fun Park (Isabelles Birthday!) and Lizard Point, ending up at Dollar Cove and Gunwalloe (National Trust) dog friendly! We enjoyed food at the Harbour Inn and Kota (Isabelles 7Read moreth Birthday again!). Miley loved the beach at Porthleven! Hide

We have found our perfect place, well equipped and ideally located house. Cornwall is as lovely as ever, so many magic places - Church Cove is amazing on windy days. Our vote for the best pasties and good VFM - the baker at Marazion. We'll be back, don't change a thing!
