Helston Homes with Fireplace

Stargazy in the Oven

• 5 guests

• 3 bedrooms

Porthleven, Helston

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.

A Book of Love

• 4 guests

• 2 bedrooms

Helston, Cornwall

Set in a secluded spot within twenty acres, this upside-down home makes the most of the countryside vistas and will have you itching to get out to explore. While a car is necessary for travelling further afield, there are walks from your doorstep here or you can take a ride on the Helston Railway to soak up the scenery – it’ll stop at the bottom of the garden for you.

Driftwood Lodge

• 4 guests

• 2 bedrooms

Porthleven, Helston

The hardest choice at this cosy home is deciding whether to stay and enjoy sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean from the attic room or to head out to explore the glorious Cornish coastline that sits mere metres away. Add in the private walled terrace complete with alfresco seating and a barbecue, as well as the living room arranged around a wood-burning stove, and the decision gets even harder.
