Great Stay!

The cottage is super cute and the perfect size for a family of four. It is in a great location, walking distance to the beach, grocery store, pubs, shops, markets, and restaurants. This place was equipped with everything we needed and the kids especially loved the bedroom / loft area. We will definitely be back!

Perfect

Just a perfect place to stay for our five nights in Cornwall. Porthleven is wonderful, the cottage could not be faulted in any way, our visit was made easy - nothing more to add. Superb

Very comfortable home

This comfortable cottage was perfectly situated for us and our friends to relax in between walks along the surrounding stretches of the sw coast path. Easy access to the village centre where we could catch the bus to our start and finish points.

Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Communication
This is a lovely cottage, nicely decorated and really handy for the town of Porthleven. However, the availability of parking is much more difficult than the listing suggests. Also, despite regular contact with the host (a management company) the dirty barbecue was never cleaned, just blaming a previous visitor and not sorting the problem. Other things to be aware of are the laundry was not well cleaned and really crumpled and the under sheet was much too small for the bed. The property clearly has damp as the dehumidifier was constantly filling, this might put some people off. Finally, the management company shared an image of a fridge to indicate how large it was before my stay. This was not the correct fridge so I brought a food that I planned to freeze for the second week which I ended up throwing away. This is a lovely cottage in a lovely location but I really feel let down by the host who was not helpful when I contacted them or offered any solutions to problems I raised.

A slice of heaven

I stayed in Porthleven for 7 weeks at this property, and it truly was a home away from home. It has lots of character, is tastefully and thoughtfully decorated, and it has all the amenities which you would require without being cluttered. It is cosy and clean, with nice linens comfortable beds and furniture to lounge on. The terrace gets the sun from 2pm and stays for the whole day. The house is a short stroll to the beach, local village and the start of the coastal paths. I had a wonderful time and I have no doubt everyone that stays here will too.
