Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Your hosts have owned this Porthleven home for over forty-five years, so you can expect plenty of comforts right here on the Cornish Coast. Benefitting from an outstanding location and beautiful views, this terraced house is full of maritime charm – you'll settle in within no time at all. With three bedrooms it can accommodate up to five guests, and for a small additional fee, you can even bring two well-behaved pets, making it an excellent choice for all the family. Sit back and relax in the living room with its bay window, before preparing a wonderful roast dinner in the fully-equipped kitchen. And, there's even a brilliant private terrace where you can admire the pretty harbour views over a cool drink in the fresh air. There are several quaint pubs and local restaurants just a few minutes' walk away, where you can taste the freshly landed catch of the day. The beach is only five minutes away on foot, and those who are feeling active can hit one of the local trails for a coastal walk or book a surfing lesson. And, at the end of a busy day, there is no better place to curl up than in the cosy bedrooms – your hosts will even provide hot water bottles for chilly nights.
