A lovely cottage with a mesmeric view of the sea, and within very easy distance to village, shops, restaurants, beach and coastal path. Bedrooms are very snug. Being able to use the garage to hang wet suits and boards etc was extremely useful. We had a great time and so did our dog.

The fabulous location of this upside down cottage enables guests to savour the full breadth of Mounts Bay from the comfort of the sofa, including occasional sightings of a seal or even dolphin. The nearby Atlantic Inn has a welcoming vibe and a great view of sunsets. Step out of the front door onto the coastal path to Gunwalloe Cove or Praa Sands iRead moren the opposite direction. Porthleven is an enjoyable stroll downhill to the picturesque harbour where a multitude of excellent eateries await or the local independent Pengellys store for essentials. Hide

Love this little property. Its perfectly placed with a stunning view, without being over priced and too big. We have only ever stayed here in winter and there is nothing more cosy than sitting on the sofa watching the stormy waves roll in from the Atlantic. You are so close we have even had seaweed on the balcony on one visit. At night you can hRead moreear the waves on the shore line. Its not a big property but has everything you need - and the upstairs open plan in this "upside down" house feels spacious and roomy. Highly recommended Hide

The cottage was lovely, exactly as described, with everything you would need included. The views over the sea are fantastic, sadly no big storms while we were there, but the weather was good and meant we could open the French doors and enjoy the sunshine. The walk down to Porthleven was pretty and easily walkable with great cafes and would recommenRead mored the Habour Inn to eat out, very dog friendly. One downside, the pillows were uncomfortable, but a very small niggle in comparison to the really good standard of the property. Having a garage was useful although if you own a large 4x4 I doubt it would fit. The patio area outside was great for drying the dog after visiting the beach. Would definitely come back and stay again. Hide

As the property was pet friendly there were dig hairs on surfaces and furniture coverings. Property was extremely damp. Wall behind bed was dripping wet and water leakage down wall in living room. One garage door was off itsvrunners so could not be secured. Crockery and cutlery was dirty and had to be washed before use.
