Once a fisherman’s cottage, this cute Porthleven bolthole dates back to 1880. You can picture the relief on the weather-worn fisherman’s face, returning to this cosy abode with a fire crackling in the stove (it’s electric now) and stargazy pie steaming away on the farmhouse-style table in the kitchen. Your days in Porthleven don’t have to be so hard, meandering down to the harbourfront in just a few minutes where boats still land the fresh catch of the day, supplying a glut of independent restaurants. There’s a soft-sand beach here too, for days on the surfboard.

Speaking of which, if you want to hang your wetsuit out to dry and store your board, there’s a private backyard just for this. Inside, we love the exposed stone walls still on display – a nod to the home’s history. Sinking into one of the sofas is a delight after a day on a surfboard or walking the South West Coastal Path. Then there are the bedrooms with cushioned piled high on the beds – the epitome of cosiness.

This traditional fishing cottage is the perfect fit for Porthleven, one of the UK’s most unspoilt fishing villages. With bags of character and even more homeliness, this home is a wonderful choice for your Cornish trip. Whether you’re in search of relaxation or an adventure, you'll find it here.

While this home certainly has its traditional touches, it’s not without its mod-cons. The contemporary kitchen is sleek and polished – home-cooked meals are a breeze here. On the other hand, the living room is cosy and inviting, with a stone brick fireplace that fills the home with warmth. You’ll love snuggling on the plush sofa, watching a comforting film on the smart TV, with just the glow of the gas-burning fireplace. 

With the granite harbour right on your doorstep, you’re in the perfect position to explore Porthleven. Discover its winding roads dotted with independent shops, cafes, and traditional pubs.

Fit for a Fisherman

Outdoor Shower

If you’re looking for a memorable seaside escape with panoramic sea views from all windows, then this gorgeous cottage could be for you. For the colder months, there’s a wood burner to cosy up in front of too. You can enjoy the wonderful vistas from outside as well in the large garden with its terraced seating area, perfect for watching the sun set. If you want to explore this stunning location, the South West Coast Path is just beyond the garden. Or spend the day on beautiful Praa Sands, 3 kilometres away. A little further afield there are attractions such as St Michael's Mount, The Minack Theatre and Penzance to discover.

Balcony

Some homes are designed around a view and this is one of them. Perched close to the Cornish coastline, it's possible to gaze out at peaceful vistas of Swanpool lagoon or Falmouth Bay, depending on which of the floor-to-ceiling windows you're standing next to at any given moment. The best spot at the address, however, has to be the covered balcony, from which you can enjoy the coastal panorama with a sea breeze on your skin.

One added benefit of all this glass is the copious amount of natural light that it lets into the home and this asset is emphasised by the preference for stark white in the walls and the kitchen's sleek surfaces. The home's design is definitely shaped by contemporary minimalism, which will really sing to those who have no time for nautical kitsch found in plenty of local properties.

As a glimpse out the windows will tell you, the sea isn't all too far away – in fact, you can be standing on the sands of Swanpool beach in under five minutes' walk. This seaside spot sits on the South West Coast Path, so you can ramble on in either direction if you so wish. The town of Falmouth will take you half an hour to reach on foot, too.

You could sneak in through the back at this apartment in a Regency manor, but that would take away from the grand entrance worthy of a Jane Austen heroine. Sashaying through the double doors and across the marble floor, past the stone fireplace, you come to your abode. It’s in the old ballroom of the manor, and the floor-to-ceiling bays windows and gilded mirrors haven’t changed since the days of swishing gowns and music from the pianoforte (indeed, there’s still a grand piano in here). 

Rather than a bandstand, there’s now a kitchen at the head of the ballroom, and if you prefer your evenings slightly more intimate, a book-lined snug with a plush velvet sofa awaits in the bedroom. We love the hand-carved antique bed, waiting to see you off to the land of nod.

There are acres of grounds to explore on the estate, but if you want to get out and see the Cornish coast, it’s just a ten-minute drive to the beaches of St Ives Bay. The gallery-filled old fishing town of St Ives itself is just twenty minutes by car. 

Gowns & Grandeur

Positioned just above Praa Sands on Cornwall's south coastline, this home can't be accused of not making the most of this sensational location. The living area has a huge sliding door and the master bedroom an equally large window, and both gaze out towards an unblemished panorama of sea and skyline. There's even a terrace and a small garden so you can feel a breeze on your face while you take in the scenery. Back inside, the home is contemporary with a distinct boho edge thanks to the macrame, house plants, natural fabrics and soothing neutral colour scheme. In one corner, there's a wood burner, which can warm you up after a day of surfing and frolicking about on the beach. The South West Coast runs by the address and continues in either direction for plenty more stunning landscape, while Penzance only takes seventeen minutes to reach in the car if you want a day of galleries and restaurants.

Single-Level Home

Located just a short walk from Mylor’s beautiful marina sits a cottage that is just as picturesque as its surroundings. Scallop Cottage can sleep eight guests and even welcomes up to two dogs, making it a fantastic choice for a friendly family or a bunch of friends keen on escaping on a coastal holiday. Enjoy sweeping views through the large picture windows in the living room, prepare delicious meals in the country kitchen, or bask in the sunshine of your private backyard as you take in the boats of the marina bobbing with the tide of the waves. Weather permitting, we encourage you to take your meals alfresco or make your way down to the marina for a wonderful meal out. There are also plenty of charming cafes and bars that are sure to keep you entertained for the duration of your stay.

Just a few metres from the sandy shores of Praa Sands Beach, this dreamy house nestled between Penzance and Helston offers beachside beauty from the moment you arrive. 

Take in uninterrupted views of the bay from the large private garden boasting sun loungers, an alfresco dining and lounge area and an abundance of open lawn space. But, of course, the cherry on the cake is the hot tub – perfectly positioned for taking in the sunset at the end of a fun-filled day catching the surf or soaking up other beachside activities. 

Rest and restore your energy with chill-out sessions in the plush living area with a good book in hand. From here, you can hear the sound of the waves breaking on the beach. Heaven. 

Whether you prefer to cook up a storm on the barbecue or head to the "Sand Bar" restaurant down on the beachfront – you needn't miss out on enjoying this serene setting when it comes to meal times. 

When you can peel yourselves away from life on the beach, the coastal town of Marazion with its famous St Michaels Mount is only a ten-minute drive away. 

Beachside Beauty 

We’re not one for hyperbole, but the views from the terrace of this home really are spectacular. Not only do you have the ocean stretching out as far as the eye can see, but the beautiful bay of Praa Sands also curves down below, and the patchwork fields of south Cornwall lie in the distance. Admire the view from the perfectly placed hot tub, drink a morning coffee on the glass-fronted balcony, or cook a meal on the barbecue to enjoy overlooking the water. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room means that you can take in the scene even on cold days – when you may want to fire up the woodburner for a cosy evening in. Aside from walking, surfing and sunbathing on Praa Sands, you’ll also want to explore the nearby village and go hiking along the South West Coast Path, which is easy to reach from this home.

The local coastline provides excellent surf and beautiful hiking trails, adored by local lovers of the outdoors. 

Ye Olde Church House

If you’ve always wanted to stay in a lighthouse in Cornwall, well here’s your chance. This beautiful home is part of a fully working lighthouse, established in 1619 and has an enclosed courtyard garden with a picnic table and benches for alfresco lunches. We should mention that during periods of fog and mist, an automatic, electric fog signal sounds, but don't worry, ear plugs are provided. If that doesn’t faze you then, this magical setting within the Lizard Peninsular won’t disappoint. Cliff tops walks are on your doorstep and attractions such as Lands End and the beguiling Kynance Cove are nearby. The village of Lizard has shops, restaurants and a friendly pub only ¼ mile away too.

Sail the Seas

With five large bedrooms and over 1.5 acres of semi-wild clifftop garden to explore, this property is the perfect place for families or a group of friends looking for a peaceful coastal getaway. The interior features a spacious and comfortable living area, with a host of books and games ideal for family nights in. The well-equipped kitchen provides all the amenities you need to prepare delicious meals, whether you're hosting a family feast or taking in the magnificent sea views whilst having a casual lunch out on the large veranda. The quaint village of Coverack is a picturesque fishing community in the heart of Cornwall. Home to a stunning beach, beautiful harbour, charming shops and welcoming cafes. Discover the beauty of the coastal paths as you embark on invigorating walks or indulge in water sports such as windsurfing, paddleboarding, or kayaking.

Clifftop Charm

For a unique and unforgettable experience, stay in this operational lighthouse on the furthest point of Cornwall’s Roseland Peninsula. The sea views are second-to-none, whether that’s from the sunny patio or the detached observation room – complete with a fireplace for cosy storm watching. Seeing as this lighthouse is operational, expect to hear automatic fog signal on misty nights and see maintenance people from time to time. Other than that, the cottage is private with no public access. You’ll park in the National Trust car park – it’s a 300-metre steep path down to the cottage from there. Guests should also be aware that the home isn't suitable for children under 14, including babies. But there's a lot to love here. You even have easy access to a beautiful beach.

Haze & Clouds

This beautiful Grade II-listed Georgian Manor House in the heart of Cornwall is perfect for large gatherings and celebrations. Tucked away among thirty acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, there are plenty of woodland paths, ponds and rolling hills for adults and children alike to enjoy.

Inside, you’ll be blown away by the high ceilings, snug drawing rooms and period-inspired furnishings that will bring a touch of elegance to your holiday. However, there are so many ways to let loose here. The conservatory, for example, has a billiards table, disco ball and sound system, and there's also table tennis that can be set up in the rear hall or courtyard. On sunny days, the patio with its barbecue and alfresco dining area will naturally be the place to be, but there's also the option to slip away from the crowds for a dip in the outdoor hot tub, complete with candles and LED lighting.

Festivities

You’ll breeze between outdoor and indoor living with sliding glass doors that lead out to a private hot tub, well-kept garden, and patio area. Start your day with breakfast in the fresh sea air, before strolling down to the idyllic Gwithian Beach, discovering the spectacular sand dune formations and wild Nature Reserve backed onto the shore.

It will sweep you off your feet with its location perched above the coast, offering stunning views out onto the deep blue sea.

Brimming with original artwork and oozing charm, this coastal cottage is a real knock-out. We love every inch, from the inviting living space to the sumptuous bedroom. It's snug, but that's what makes it so cosy, and for a small space, it sure is packed with personal touches. Egyptian cotton sheets, electric fireplace, fluffy bathrobes, beach essentials, a welcome basket overflowing with breakfast items – your host has all the little details taken care of. As much as we adore the lovely kitchen, our favourite spot has to be the rustic courtyard. Dotted with olive trees and surrounded by leafy potted plants, it's the perfect place for morning coffees, alfresco dinners and evening tipples as the sun goes down. As far as locations go, this home is close to everything – it's only a ten-minute walk to Gyllyngvase Beach and five minutes to the restaurants, shops and pubs along the waterfront. While there's private parking on-site, you won't need the car for much. Don your comfiest shoes and set off on foot instead, exploring Falmouth's coastal walks, art galleries and cafes with ease.

Just a five-minute walk from the centre of the village, this pretty cottage feels every bit the wonderfully rural Cornish retreat. As part of a set of converted farm buildings, this place has changed a lot since it was used to store seed potatoes back in the day. 

A glossy modern kitchen, plump sofas, a velvet beanbag, and a rainfall shower are just some of the features that bring comfort and style to this rustic abode. We love the log burner in the lounge, the heart of the living space, where you can round up the family after a day out exploring the area. But for the ultimate in modern-day luxury, we suggest you take a long soak in the home's new hot tub, out in the lovely garden. 

You'll be just minutes away from both the north and south Cornish coast by car, with Penzance, Marazion and the impressive St Michael's Mount all nearby.

Just over a mile from the village of Stithians, down by the River Kennall, this stone cottage is set in the 7-acre land surrounding an old farmhouse. But despite its incredibly rural setting, staying here is far from the rustic experience you might expect. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Upon arrival, your host will warmly welcome you with a hamper full of luxury Cornish fare and home-baked goods to start your holiday right. While you nibble and sip, you can start exploring the cosy home. Fluffy rugs, plush sofas, and wooden floors create a sense of warmth and softness in the living space, but floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outside in. And the great outdoors are particularly great in this case. Under the wooden decking, get ready to pop champagne and soak in the hot tub. Or perhaps you’d rather recline on the outdoor sofas by the wood-burner, have a barbecue, or play a few rounds of table tennis? As you’re just a fifteen-minute drive to Gyllyngvase Beach in Falmouth, you’ll also need to pack a picnic one day and head for the shore (don’t forget to grab the beach towels that your host kindly provides).

If you’re looking for a bohemian escape in Cornwall, then look no further. This rustic hideaway is perfect for a solo traveller or a couple looking to get in touch with the raw beauty of the Cornish countryside and who care most about the luxuries of the soul – great music, fantastic light, the roar of the waves.

Musician's Escape

The cabin is tucked away in a lush garden in a romantic setting that will make you instantly forget any of the worries of day-to-day life. It’s a studio-style cabin with one wall entirely made of glass, blending the interior and exterior. A skylight above the bed means you’ll go to sleep each night staring straight up at the stars.

After a day of exploring Cornwall and its gems, you can look forward to sipping wine on the terrace. Perhaps you’ll cook dinner on the barbecue before enjoying a relaxing bubble bath in the beautiful copper tub. Or to take the romance to the next level, you might soak in the hot tub under the stars. It’s impossible to leave here feeling stressed out.

This bright four-story house has been designed with comfort and style in mind. Don’t be fooled by the ultra-modern, white facade; this place still retains a nod to its heritage with exposed stones from the original fisherman's cottage. In summer, light pours through the large windows and the log burner and underfloor heating keeps you cosy in the colder months. A crisp, white background lets the seaside watercolours on the wall speak for themselves and the big kitchen is more than spacious enough for the buzz of family breakfast time. On sunny days, head out to the wooden deck looking out to sea (with an outdoor heater available), or tuck yourself away on the dining terrace for an alfresco seafood feast from the local fishmonger.

The home faces a quiet lane leading to the centre of the bustling and charming town of St. Ives, where you'll find excellent seafood restaurants, cafés, indie galleries and soft-sanded beaches. Enjoy the local Cornish culture with ocean adventures like wild swimming, surfing and paddleboarding, all just a short walk away.

Most tourists make a beeline for the Cornish coast – but little do they know that this beloved landscape is home to another beautiful feature, the Fal River. The surroundings here are slightly different, where green pasture gives way to mixed woodland and small pebbled riverside beaches. This characterful, quintessentially Cornish cottage dates back to the 1800s and provides perfect panoramic views over these stunning vistas, with three separate outside seating areas to choose from. Watch the sailboats float by as you lie on the garden bed, or have breakfast on the terrace while waving to a passing paddle-boarder – the river is never far away, and you can even view the shimmering water from your double bed. Trelissick is just a twenty-minute drive away, and Swanpool Beach is a sandy cove half an hour away, beside Swanpool Nature Reserve. After all that exploring, stop at the local inn three doors down for a pint before heading home to play a board game in front of the cosy log burner.
