About this property

Very quaint Cornish cottage, many original features & redecorated to a nautical / shabby chic style. Cosy in winter and cool in summer. 100m to a white sand & clear blue water beach, perfect for body boarding/swimming, rock pools for kids. Coastal path on your doorstep as well as great places to eat/drink. 20 mins to St ives and a short journey to the south coast. The house consists of 2 bedrooms, both with double beds, a bathroom including bath and over head shower. Gallery style well equipt kitchen, good sized living room including a double sofa bed. The conservatory doubles as a dining room. Ideal for a couple or family.

If you wait for the tide to go out at portreath beach there is a natural swimming pool in the rocks to the right and you can explore all the caves to the left.

There are lifeguards on the beach through high season.

For places to go we would recommend:

the little cafe on the beach for a snack/hot drinks/ breakfast bap etc, eating out at the Atlantic cafe, & Basset arms (they have a quiz night). The hub has bike hire and a delightful cafe, if you’re lucky you’ll catch one of their themed nights (ticket only) every 2 weeks through the summer. Portreath arms has recently had a makeover and looks amazing, food great. Best pasties are from the local bakery (sell out by lunch time) and there is a local shop 2 mins from the cottage & they do cash back. In porthtowen the blue bar is a great spot, in st ives - porthmeor cafe and blas burger are amazing. Carbis bay is a beautiful beach if you go to st ives & we normally park at the station. For surfing or a long walk - Gwithian beach is stunning. Trip to trebah gardens and helford river (stopping at the ferry boat inn) is a great day out. You can book a river cruise that picks up at the Budock vean hotel.

9 Tage in Portreath

Wir haben keine First-Class-Unterkunft erwartet aber es hätte insgesamt etwas sauberer sein dürfen (Wintergarten-Dach, Küche). Ein leicht muffiger Geruch ist sicherlich der alten Bausubstanz geschuldet und hat uns nicht gestört. Küche ungewöhnlich ausgestattet, hat aber funktioniert. Duschbereich im Bad sehr niedrig. Strandnähe war super. Alles einfach zu finden.

Nice small cottage at the seaside

It was a nice stay in a quiet, neat surrounding, app. eight minutes walk to the beach. The cottage was sufficiently equipped for three adults. But we are sorry to say that it wasn´t cleaned properly: Dirt on the floor, hair on the bathroom floor, a lot of spider webs in the edges, the oven was very sticky and the fan above the stove was covered with dirt which made it unusable. The water kettle didn´t work. There are no plug-ins in the bathroom. Nevertheless we enjoyed our stay very much.

Cosy house in the perfect location

House was great, close to the beach, pub and the local amenities- probably one of the best beaches for swimming or bodyboarding and the local rental shop were friendly and really helpful 👍 the local pubs are fantastic- Portreath arms serves excellent food in the restaurant or great pub food in the bar - and the Basset Arms is everything a proper pub should be ;) the cottage was the perfect base with its cosy private garden and flexible sleeping - also positioned perfectly for exploring the SW coastal path - the walk to Porthowan was superb and the Unicorn on the beach a great pub to stop and eat 👍👍👍

Perfect location

We are a family of 5 (children are young and still happy to share beds!) and had a brilliant week at the cottage. It is small, but we had lovely weather so was great as a base. Lovely big sofa to relax on and we could all fit round the dining table. There was plenty of crockery, fridge space etc for a family. The location was amazing. The beach was just down the road and what a beach it is! Lots of caves and rock pools to explore and beautiful sand for the children to play in. We loved Portreath and found it less commercial than other Cornish towns. There is also a shop just up the road for basics, and a Chinese takeaway. It’s around 10 min drive to big supermarkets.
