Beach Cottage with amazing beach and sea views

A 5 bedroom cottage with stunning coastal and beach views. Sky TV, BT Infinity 30MB Wi-Fi, Log burner, 4 bath/shower rooms; three of them ensuites. Beach Cottage sits 300m from the Blue Flag beach in Porthtowan, a small seaside village with a 1 mile sandy beach, framed by National Trust protected coastline and served by RNLI Lifeguards. The views from Beach Cottage are wonderful, over the beach and down the coast to St.Ives. Learn to surf at the legendary Tris Surf or enjoy body-boarding. On the beach is the 'Blue Bar', a Good Pub Guide pub with great food. Nearby Chapel Porth National Trust café is home to the world famous HedgeHog ice cream. Walkers take the SW coastal path from the end of the garden. Super location, 8 minutes drive from A30, central to most of Cornwall's attractions.

Ideal place to get away to….

Lovely position overlooking Porthtowan and south west along the coast to Carbis Bay and St Ives. Close to the coastal path providing beautiful walks to many tin mines along the heritage coast trails. Perfect getaway whatever the weather. Very comfortable and showers were excellent

Beautiful sunset views from almost every room. Great bathrooms, good mattresses, pillows and bedding. However, the house needs a little TLC/updating. We still had a great stay and it was ideal for 4 mature ladies to get away for a long weekend of R&R

Great stay!

We had a great time celebrating my mum and her partner finally getting married after 25 years together. The house was lovely and great value for money. The views are incredible! The only downside for us was the neighbours made it more than clear they are not happy about a holiday let being on the street, (more than happy to discuss this with the own otherwise, a great stay.

Beautiful Beach Cottage with Amazing View

My family and I spent a weekend at this property and absolutely fell in love. The view alone makes it worth the stay. But the house was also great. A little hard to find and a little ways from town, which ensures privacy and peace and quiet, but also still close enough for grocery delivery. :) Easy check-in/out process and timely communication. Highly recommend.

Family celebration

We all had a fantastic stay, the views are breath taking, log fire was an added bonus on a couple of rainy cold nights, house was big enough for our party of 10, only down side the cooker takes for ages to cook food, bedroom upstairs window is very drafty, beautiful house just needs some TLC, local beach bars would highly recommend them

Summer Reunion

Fantastic and very special property with great layout and views. We were a group of 9 adults for our annual meetup. We found the place a great launching point for various Cornwall adventures, as well as a wonderful place to simply relax at the house. Very easy in and out. Good WiFi. A couple of good restaurants (Unicorn and Blue Bar) in walking distance and the access to the Coastal Path was phenomenal!

Family holiday

My family and I enjoyed staying at this property - nice lay out so you all have your own little bit of space but nice big communal areas for spending time together - the hosts have left lots of condiments/cleaning products/utensils so you don’t need to buy/take lots of things with you - really pretty view. Sunsets are 10/10 and are visible from most of the house. The nearby beach has a lovely local/community feel to it. Overall - very happy with our stay

Great spot

Loved the location. Beach and cliff walks right on your doorstep. Had everything I needed. Kettle was a bit hit and miss and the sky had no signal however that didn’t ruin my stay. As expected with a holiday rental a lot of wear and tare through disregard from previous guests. Very warm place with fabulous views of the countryside and beach below. All recommended beaches are within an hour of the property . St Agnes is a great view point which is only 10 mins away. A local shop is a few metres walk away and they are very friendly. Major supermarkets about 20 mins away but getting a delivery was well worth it. Would definitely come again. The dogs loved it and was a great birthday vacation.

Wonderful house!

We stayed for 3 nights over a Weekend in March, and even with iffy (cold, bit rainy) it was wonderful. House is exactly as shown in the pics - immaculate -- with unexpected beautiful views from not only the family room (with huge expanse of glass including out onto the patio) but also from the master and from the kitchen. The setting at the end of the street means you get both water and headline views, with nothing in between, and walk directly unto the headland trails. Big kitchen, big dining room, plenty of comfy beds and bathrooms for 10 people. Loved this, will plan to come back,.

Fantastic location

Perfect! Hired this place out for a get a way with friends before the Christmas break, we could not believe the size of the place for the price, incredibly reasonable. Gorgeous living room with an incredible sea view, really clean and tidy bedrooms with enough storage for clothes. Log burner made for a lovely cosy atmosphere. There were 9 of us so we were ready for dinner to be difficult, but there were plenty of glassware and kitchen equipment to cook with. Just a short walk down to the beach and local shop, it's peaceful without bring in the middle of nowhere. Thank you very much!!!

Absolutely Beautiful

I have been dreaming about coming to Cornwall for 18 years. This trip and house did not disappoint. Stunning views of the ocean with many opportunities for even better views while walking the amazing coastal path. For Poldark fans there are a couple sites within walking distance, including one of the mines. The Blue Bar is within walking distance and serves great food with also amazing views. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable for our group. I just wish I had more time there. It was easy to find, accurately described and plenty of parking. Highly recommend it and I hope somehow, someday I can go back as well.

Great family weekend away

10 of us stayed for a milestone birthday. The location was brilliant, as was the communication with the host of the property. Instructions for the parking and directions to the property were very helpful. The property had more than we thought would be available (salt, pepper, kitchen utensils etc). If we had to leave one bit of feedback which would have improved our stay further it would be regarding the check in and check out time. If we had only stayed for one night a 5pm check in and 9.30am check out would have put us off staying at the property. Overall, really pleased with our stay! Thank you!
