Just metres away from the waterfront of Porthleven's main harbour, soak up sea views from your front door when staying at this surfer's hideaway. Finished with modern home comforts and fun pops of yellow and blue through its furnishings – the space offers a serene spot to kick back between fun-filled days on the beach. And with plenty of natural daylight flowing through the living area floor-to-ceiling window, it's quite likely that you'll wake up here feeling refreshed and revitalised after just one night. So soak up the fresh sea air on the front patio with a coffee in hand, before heading down to the harbour or for a morning stroll around the town. The charming fishing village of Porthleven is bursting with coastal charm, scenic views and delicious seafood restaurants. Walk down to Porthleven beach's sandy shores to catch some surf, picnic in the sun and build sand castles until your heart's content.
