Sitting right on Porthleven Bay and withing walking distance of the harbour, cafes and galleries, this home is a treat for those seeking a retreat to the Cornish Coast. Inside, you'll find a bright and practical space equipped for families – just ask your host for a cot and high chair. Though there’s a ground-floor bedroom here, there are steps leading the entrance and around the terrace, so it might not be the best option for all guests. The patio overlooking the bay is the ideal spot for alfresco meals, while the outdoor shower is perfect for washing off sandy feet adter a day at Porthleven Beach.

Home truths
We suggest hiring a car to best explore the area. While there's no parking at the home, there is unrestricted on-road parking on the road below, subject to availability.
As there are stairs to climb here, it might not be the best option for those with limited mobility.
We think the designs here are on the minimal side but perfectly comfortable.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance and bring your own cot linen.
We'd recommend packing some bits and bobs to get you started. The nearest supermarket is a short walk away.
