Tertia welcomed us in a very cordial manner. Your house is very cozy and lovingly decorated and absolutely clean. Plenty of storage space in the room. Pedestrian-friendly location, bus stop, village shop and restaurants nearby, and just minutes to the Coast Path. Delicious breakfast. Staying there is highly recommended.

Sonrisa and Bruce's apartment is perfect location for a surfing trip to Cornwall. Walking distance to the beach at Porthtowan and not a long drive to more exposed spots down south. Description was accurate. Communication was excellent and they were absolutely flexible with arrival time. The apartment was really clean and basic breakfast and coffee was included which was a really nice touch!

We loved our stay at Sonrisa and Bruce's beautiful place. They left a key for us so we could turn up whenever we wanted which was great as we drove down from London and stopped a few times. It is perfectly situation 30 seconds walk from the local shop, pub and Restaurant and a 2 minute walk to a beautiful beach and hills for lovely dog walks. We took our dog and she loved it too. The wifi went down for literally 2 mins as they were changing providers whilst we stayed. It didn't bother us as they have 100s of channels to choose from but they waved the fee for our dog staying which we thought was a really nice gesture. It's a perfect place for a relaxing weekend and imagine its amazing in the summer. Sonrisa and Bruce were available all weekend via email and text and made our stay very comfortable. We will defiantly visit again, especially when the kitchen is put in. The only thing that was missing was the option of cooking a hearty meal after a long walk as there is only a kitchenette so look forward to visiting once the kitchen is sorted. Thanks to these guys, we are already thinking about Air B&B again as this was our first time and I've known any hotel/ B&B to be so hassle free! Thanks Sonrisa and Bruce.

Lovely house, Sonrisa was very accommodating. Porthtowan is beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you

We stayed for one day at Sonrisa's house and I can say it is super clean, lovely place to visit this part of cornwall. Very close to the beach and quick transfer to the motorway. Sonrisa has been looking after as like no one else from airbnb. I highly recommend it !!!!

We loved the comfort of this place. The big comfy sectional couch to the memory foam mattress, it was just so relaxing. It's a quick walk down from the beach with a few restaurants and shops close by and Sonrisa was a great host keeping in contact with us. It was a perfect size for my husband, daughter and myself. Sonrisa provided items for a simple breakfast which was nice for us to have breakfast and then be on our way for the day.

A lovely short break, right next to the sea. Beautiful cliff top walks and our Labrador loved the beaches. Sonrisa's place was great, no kitchen but has microwave and fridge as per description. Great hosts and very accommodating.

Great location for a short coastal break. Sonrisa was easy to communicate with in advance of arrival, and everything we expected was provided.

What a fantastic stay! Great location with beautiful scenery and an inviting local pub. Great communication with Sonrisa who is very helpful and friendly. Thanks a mil!

The arrival worked fine thanks Andrews information and the well-organized keys. The house is comfortable and nicely furnished and the way to the beach is really short. At night you can hear only the sound of the sea and during the day you can take walks on the beach and cliff walks. We have thoroughly enjoyed our cottage holiday in Towan!

The house is absolutely beautiful! We were extremely overwhelmed when we arrived and felt very comfortable as soon as we entered! I would thoroughly recommend this place to anyone and we will be booking here again!

Lovely holiday cottage in a great location - a few minutes walk to the beach, local shop, cafe and coast path. Well equipped with fully functional kitchen, comfy beds and cosy living/dining room. Log burner was a real plus especially in the storm we had on the first night! It felt like a home away from home. Very comfy. Great communication from host. Thank you!

Andrews place is right next to the beach, with excellent parking spaces for one van and one 4x4, and SUCH comfy beds! I didn't want to leave the bed!! Kitchen fully equipped and comfy sofas too. Excellent value for a family surf weekend away! The place felt homey straight away, my dad commented on the bathroom being a bit rough around the edges, but I said that made it even homeyer! Will definitely be using again next time am in Cornwall

Excellent location, close to beach, shop and play park. Comfortable and well equipped. Got a bit chilly in the evening, but there is a wood burner, electric heaters and lots of throws. Only downside was some issues regarding cleanliness. Apart from these, it was an ideal for our weekend break.

A great place to stay for our weekend away. Amazing location, we had a lovely morning walk on the beach and the Porthtowan Beach Cafe was really lovely. We all regretted not having breakfast there! The house suited our needs perfectly, comfortable, gorgeous log fire, and central within Cornwall for us to see the bits we wanted to see. Would definitely recommend!

The host canceled this reservation 81 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Nice and close to the beach for early morning walks. The blue bar was a lovely spot for lunch and coffee. Grateful for the log burner in the house on a couple of cold wet afternoons.

The cabin was a lovely place to stay, clean and tidy and all the essentials. It was quiet and peaceful, whilst being close to beach. Wifi is available, so not having mobile signal wasn't a great loss. Dog friendly, which was another bonus. Thank you Wendy, we will be back :)

Loved the location, the peace and quiet. Loved the cabin, was spotlessly clean and tidy. Had everything we needed - a real home from home. Would definitely recommend and look forward to visiting again.

Fantastic cabin in a beautiful little bay. Everything we needed was there and more. It was very quite at night and the bed was so comfortable! There is a shop nearby and a also cool pub. This was a perfect base for us to explore Cornwall.

Ivy dean is in a perfect location for enjoying all Porthtowan has to offer. Close to the beach, shop and restaurants and the parking space is a godsend in busy season. The cabin has everything you could need and is very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again soon.

Lovely little cabin in a great location, 5 mins away from a gorgeous beach as well as having the rest of Cornwall within acceptable driving range.

The key was left in the Key Safe as previously arranged and I arrived to a lovely clean and warm cabin. It had everything needed and more including milk in the fridge for a cuppa before unpacking. I've had 4 spinal surgeries so was a little worried about the bed but I didn't need to. The bed is one of the most comfortable bed's I've slept in. Stayed for 3 night's and visited St Ives and Carbis Bay which were absolutely beautiful. All in all, I had a lovely stay made easier by everything in the cabin being on one level. Will return in the summer when I'm a little more mobile so I can enjoy all the beauty the area has to offer and will definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you Wendy for making my stay possible

Fantastic cabin. So cosy . A home from home. Great location. Very well equipped. We absolutely loved our stay here. Highly recommended.

Had a fantastic stay and great location- the log cabin had absolutely everything we needed and provided a perfect relaxing retreat for a weekend away with the girlfriend.. Highly recommended!

Had a lovely stay in this house in Porthtowan. Easy access to the house, easy to find, good parking, huge garden, wonderful, comfortable, clean, very pretty house with all you ask for to spend weeks of great holiday. Very nice housekeeper to greet us and show everything. Kitchen very well equipped, lovely place to eat outside in the garden, washing machine and dishwasher, wonderful bath, fantastic beds and mattresses, all great. Had a big Folder of things to do and tourist guides of the area and Fernando told us about good restaurants near by and where to go to the surf school. We even brought our dog. Good Wifi and immediate help whenever we had a question. Very much recommended.

Great place to stay and move in Cornwall

Fernado's place is super nice. Tidy, warm and we felt like at home. The town nearby is also quite, if you wanna get away from the noise from a city this is a good choice. And the back yard is superb! There is a horse riding place nearby and we saw the horses just in his back yard! We really enjoyed the weekend by staying in the house, especially the weather wasn't very nice when we were there. Thanks!

The house was fine plenty of space and as described. Close to beach and most places you would want to visit. The beds are all very comfortable and the rooms spacious.

As described. A Wonderful place to stay. Was more than sufficient for my group of 7 adults. Had a absolutely great time. Complete privacy with Diana just a phone call away. Though i landed there on christmas day, everything was perfectly prearranged with attention to minute details. Loved the stay. Thanks Fernando and Diana

good location, though busy road for walk to beach great garden

The reservation was canceled 112 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

the housekeeper Diana met us at the property on the day itself even thought we were a little early than the arranged time. the location is pretty secluded, but it is great to hang out with friends and family, there is a spacious backyard where u are able to play and BBQ. The nearest beach is about 5-10 mins drive away, which is great. The place is clean and well maintained, the owner also provided a number of games (board games, PS2, cards). There is also a vinyl player with some vinyl records. We have a wonderful time there.

We loved our stay at Ocean Breeze. The apartment was cosy, private parking located close by and location stunning with amazing views of the beach. There were so many thoughtful touches throughout to enhance your stay and guest experience. Mike and Linda even popped by just to make sure we were all ok which we really did not expect and was a lovely gesture. We would definitely recommend Ocean Breeze and hope we can visit again soon!

Staying at Ocean Breeze is a good experience in Porthtowan. Mike decorated the house nicely before we arrived, and we could easily communicate with him all the time. I strongly recommend his house and his kind offer to the future tourists.

Our stay at Mike's place was fantastic- couldn't have asked for a more attentive and helpful host, especially at the short notice with which we booked! Well equipped, amazing view of the ocean, and close by some superb walking trails, pub, village store etc. A perfect relaxing getaway and within easy driving distance to all of Cornwall's attractions. Thanks Mike for the great stay and I look forward to staying at your place again!

We had a great stay at Ocean Breeze. Weather was great and the view from the balcony was stunning. The apartment was left stocked with some coffee, fresh milk and some Cornish cookies alongside a welcoming note. I felt that Mike and Linda made us feel very welcome. Although quite small, the space was adequate for the four of us. Two small kids of 3 and 3 months were more than happy. There were some great kids DVDs of which one was used while we ate breakfast one morning which kept them occupied while we got thing ready for the day. For the money I couldn't fault the accommodation and would happily return. Thanks again for our stay!

We had milk, tea, biscuits, bog roll, pound coins for the electric meter and some other stuff waiting for us on arrival. This was gratefully received. The house worked well and the views never disappointed

Great location , very safe for children, great sunset views from the balcony, very clean. Can't wait to go back.

Ocean breeze is situated in a lovely quiet village overlooking the beach with great views and stunning cliff walks. Ocean Breeze was impeccably clean and had comfy bed and sofas. The kitchen was well equipped with lots of crockery and utensils. There was plenty of space and we loved the spiral staircase leading to the gallery bedroom. We were provided with a complementary parking permit to a car park a 1 min walk away - which is perfect for those driving down. Ocean breeze is extremely close to the village shop, and a number of pubs (The Unicorn is particularly good, offering an amazing Sunday roast and pizzas). Communication with Mike was faultless; he gave us plenty of advice and suggestions of places to visit. We were greeted with a welcoming postcard, ginger biscuits, fruit, tea, coffee and milk. Mike was very responsive to our needs and was at the end of the phone when we needed him. We had a brilliant first trip to Cornwall and would definitely return to Ocean Breeze! Thanks Mike and Linda!

If you're looking for well equipped accommodation in a beautiful location with sea views and beach access on your doorstep this is it. The accommodation has everything you need if you're self-catering, and is also located within walking distance of local amenities. Great walking opportunities with the cliff path and beach outside your front door. The communication with Mike our host was excellent throughout from booking to departure - tea, coffee, and milk on arrival and nothing was too much trouble. We've had a fantastic few days and I would highly recommend Ocean Breeze.

We had a great time in Cornwall. The flat was everything we could have asked for. It was exactly as it was portrayed in the profile and was actually closer to the beach than we imagined. The flat was very clean and well presented. The bread and champagne were much appreciated and a nice personal touch. I would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone wanting to stay in a great facility as well as a great location for experiencing everything the area provides. The guest information pack was particularly useful. Thank you

Great location with sea view. The information given by Tom and Candice and recommendations of the area were accurate. Was left bread and champagne which was a nice touch. had a lovely time. if you are looking for a place to chill out this is great.

Nice careful landlord Good location good view of sea Enjoyed a lot with my family

Fabulous welcome, fizz, milk and treats awaiting, the apartment is cosy and it the most fantastic location.

We had a great holiday at Tom and Candice's flat! Lovely little kitchen with an awesome nespresso machine! Bread from the little shop down the road is delicious with Cornish butter! The beach is just a trot away and nice cafes, including Blue bar just on the beach. The coastal walks are really good. Tom and Candice communicated very well and quick to respond to any queries etc There's a house manual that tells you all you need to know and the flat is really nice and clean and comfortable. No phone reception for us, but wifi was very good. Great hosts, great spot to chill and unwind. Recommended.

The flat was adequately well presented and enough place for 5/6 people. We were quite satisfied with the kitchen wares and internet service. Good view of the beach as well. Enjoyed our stay as Cornwall's major attractions were well within reach. Thank you Tom and Candice.

A lovely, fresh loaf of bread and a bottle of Prossecco were waiting for us on arrival. The apartment was lovely and looked exactly like the photos. The neighbourhood was welcoming.

Everything is as described in the advertisement. It's a nice apartment and its location to the beach is pretty good. Do not miss a walk along the edge and at low tide walk home from the beach.

Jill had great communication and was very responsive anytime we had a question. She was so helpful w our trip planning and even accommodated our early arrrival (3am), which was much earlier than check in time. Thanks so much for sharing your home!

Beautiful rustic house set on the cliff with fantastic views. Great for the adventurous and nature loving !

We've had a gorgeous experience at Clyffe. Neil was there to welcome us. The indications were very clear, the location was great, the view stunning, the cottage lovely and quirky. Wine and milk were in the fridge for us, a bowl full of fruit and fresh flowers on the tables. Clean, very good shower. We warmly recommend.

Great welcome - milk and wine in the fridge, generally well equipped i.e. tea, coffee, loo rolls, soap etc, all necessities including plenty of wood and fire lighters which made the evenings very cosy. Accurate description so it was what we expected, although even better in reality.

The house Clyffe is really far out on the highest cliff in Porthtowan. View and feel even better in reality than the pictures convey. Totally unique! The house is quite small and very personal, feels like it has been built in installments and has a worn charm. Not ultra-modern, but quite ok for four adults' needs. It should be low like patina to estimate Clyffe full. After SMS contact with Jill had she had ordered so we were met and let in to the house of a person in the village, which worked well. Two large bouquets of fresh flowers, a well-stocked fruit bowl and a bottle of cold wine in the fridge made us feel extra welcome. Cornwall is incredibly beautiful and Porthtowan was a good starting point for hiking and biking in the countryside. Overall, we were very pleased with the days of Clyffe!

It was very cold when we arrived and we were grateful that the fire was already lit. Milk, fruit an d flowers were a welcome addition. The cabin is perfectly situated - however the strong winds made it rather chilly before the fire got going. I would love to stay here in the summer.

I knew Clyffe would be special when I saw the photos and I wasn't disappointed. We arrived at night and could hear the sea roaring and when we woke up it was right there! Beautiful. I really enjoyed our stay and there was plenty of firewood to keep the cabin cosy. I didn't meet Neil ( meeter and greeter) but our friends who got there first did and said he was very nice ( and pretty cool) and very helpful. The village was quiet and has a nice shop and some nice cafes too. I'm sure in summer the place is buzzing. I would like to come back in the sunshine and explore the area a bit more. But the peace was a welcome break from city life.

We had a glorious stay, the location is amazing and the pictures on the site really don't show how impressive it is. We had a friendly and warm welcome, with wood burner lit and fresh flowers. A fantastic base from which to explore one of Britain's most beautiful stretches of wild and rugged coastline. Highly recommended and if we visit this area again, would definitely stay again.

Warm, but unobtrusive, welcome, with a lovely Cornish cream tea left for our arrival. Beautiful home that Dominique allowed us full and independent use of all week. Responded quickly to questions on phone messages. Our family were able to enjoy the beauty of Cornwall with a relaxing, spacious, clean and comfortable home to share together. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and allowing us to use your home.

We agree with all previous reviews. It's lovely just to be able to walk down with your bodyboard, or go hiking in the nearby nature reserve. Porthowan is not the most charming village of the region but there is a lovely enclosed and guarded beach, pubs and ice-cream on the beach, good surf shop and a grocery store. The people were all very friendly. The house is indeed exactly like the picture 's so no, there really is no fifth seat and the fifth bed is a pull-out which fits between the bed and the closet. The owners have helped us well with our maybe some more unusual questions such as where we could rent a piano, leaving a supply controller for Wii. We as a family enjoyed the existing DVD collection, especially Falwty Towers. The house is neat and well maintained, though it struggled to keep out moisture, which is perhaps not surprising for a house on top of a cliff overlooking the ocean. Our three teenage sons also appreciated the good wifi. We had a wonderful two weeks.

Location location location. Love that it's up the hill, so plenty of exercise and close to the beach. Lovely views and can hear the sea at night with the window open. Quiet, clean - Previous reviews are spot on. Only downside is itn't suitable if you have mobility issues. Though 90% of houses in porthtowan wouldn't be suitable for mobility issues either as they are situated on the banks of a valley. We had no issues at all. enjoyed our stay immensely.

This cottage is in a beautiful location and we throughly loved our time there. Communication was fast and easy with the hosts and I can unreservedly recommend this peppery if you are looking to get away from the maddening crowds and enjoy a beachy holiday. Easy walking distance to the beach and the Blue bar offers some decent grub and is the perfect spot to watch the sunset over Porthowan beach. Thank you.

Great Xmas break at this well appointed terraced cottage. The towels and bedding were good quality and the the bed was comfy. We were delighted to be able to bring our dog with us - hard floors downstairs and carpets upstairs. There is only one storage heater for the whole property but there is an oil filled radiator which ensured we were warm throughout our stay in the middle of winter. We saw there was a good selection of dvd's, wii stuff, ipod dock etc together with a big tv. Good enclosed (albeit steep) back patio and garden - safe for pets and children. The area was quiet at night and you could hear the surf breaking on the beach - although we were quite a long way from the sea. The SW Coastal path rises up either side of the beach and just begs to be walked. Good access to Redruth and Truro and the rest of central Cornwall. Just two additional notes - there are over a dozen steep steps up to the property from the parking area and the 'path' down to the beach is a stony, overgrown track. There is an alternative route by road which goes around the back of the village though. Great communication from Alan (the owner) throughout.

We never met Alan, and hadn't expected to, but he had made sure that everything was right for our stay. It is indeed as pictured, quite area in the most rugged and picturesque part of North Cornwall, with the sea view as shown. A very enjoyable stay!

Sasha was a fabulous and very friendly host, she couldn't have been more accommodating to us and our never ending questions! The chalet is bigger than it looks and we managed very well with 2 adults a toddler and a baby. It is also very well equipped for your stay with good quality bedding and towels. The location is stunning, just a 5 minute walk to the beach and its little beach bars where you can watch the sunset in the beautiful bay. Make sure you have cash though as its £10 minimum spend for cards. The hill to the chalet is quite steep so it wouldn't be ideal for anyone with mobility problems.

The host made us very welcome, the description was accurate about location and amenities and neighbourhood was friendly.

Host very friendly and helpful and the chalet was very clean.

The small cottage is really lovely, bright and well equipped. Great location to visit Cornwall. Sasha was very available to optimize our time and make it enjoyable. It radiates dynamism. It's really nice.

Quaint little chalet within walking distance of Porthtowan beach. Sasha was very quick to respond to all questions and sent us information and directions to find the chalet easily.

We stayed at the little chalet the week after Easter. The location is great and feels secluded and relaxed. There's a nice green out front of the property where kids can play without worrying about cars etc. The chalet was clean, well kept and has everything you need for a short stay. The location is just outside of Porthtowan village. A 5 min walk to beach and bars. Recommend the blue bar. Chilled relax beach bar with decent food. You can enjoy watching the sun go down there. Overall we had a lovely stay and Sasha was very helpful and great communication. Would stay again. Dave (family of 4)

We had a lovely time at the Little Chalet. Sasha and James were really Helpful. Everything in Porthtowen is on your doorstep and it was really convenient to be able to walk to the beach, shop, bars and the park. Our 18 month old slept soundly in the loft room which enabled us to cook and eat on the terrace in the evenings. Super comfortable stay in a lovely little community. This feels like a home away from home. We will definitely stay again.

Fantastic location, great little place, perfect for a weekend or for a longer stay. The chalet had everything we needed, kitchen was well stocked. Sasha was a great host, going out of her way to help out with all enquiries.
