Find Places to Stay in Porthtowan on Airbnb

The Lodge is beaufitul, clean and has great views. The huge window fills the space with natural light and keeps it surprisingly warm! Caroline is very welcoming, we'd have felt very comfortable asking for help at any point if we'd needed it.

Lovely place to get away for a while. Caroline was lovely in assisting us from booking to checking out. I would certainly recommend this place and hopefully one day return for another stay.

Caroline’s place felt really special, we arrived a little early due to the rain and Caroline accommodated this with no notice. The alpacas made the place really unique, lovely that they are in the field next door to the property. And the hot tub was a big hit with everyone. And let’s not forget scones fresh from the oven with jam and lashings of clotted cream. Really convenient to get to lots of places as well. We stayed with our friends who have two little girls and an infant and there was plenty of room, two bathrooms definitely helps! I should also mention the property was cosier than I thought it would be even without the fire on. Great for a wet February half term!

Caroline’s house was lovely and we felt very welcome. From the cream tea with homemade scones on arrival to the luxurious hot tub to the cute and funny alpacas in the back garden, we had a wonderful time. Thank you!

A lovely lodge. Super hot tub. Lovely cream tea and the most comfy beds. A super place to stay.

A beautiful lodge set in a picturesque location. Caroline is a wonderful host, answering questions extremely promptly pre-arrival , then offering her assistance on arrival with her knowledge of the local area. The lodge is extremely well appointed & the hot tub is toasty toasty! Highly recommended!

Nicely located, tucked out of the way about so nice and peaceful but close enough to East South and West coasts. Didn't explore too much as weather was being very British but what we did see were some nice walks and welcoming pubs. Cosy to stay in thanks to the log burner too. A really nice way to escape for a days.

From arrival to departure a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Amazing cream tea supplied by the host enjoyed by the log burner whilst watching the llamas!

Michelle's cottage provided the perfect bolt hole for myself and my wife with everything considered, characterful and of the best quality. The bed and be linen were second to none and the quality of the kitchen equipment simply made me jealous. Michelle obviously cares about her guests as much as she obviously adores the cottage, with thoughtful touches and splashes of luxury and oodles of style. The stairs to the bedroom are very steep and you do need to use the rope hand rail but we soon got used to it and the extra care needed. The bathroom agin is uber stylish and the highest quality and the outdoor area, even though the weather didn't really lend itself to making full use of it, was charming. Mithian itself is lovely small hamlet with a decent country pub less than a minutes walk and St Agnes, just 2 miles away, is full of Cornish charm with easy access to the South West Coastal Path - just exceptional walking. Overall? And exceptional place to stay and well worthy of the accolades its reviews bestow.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful few days in Cornwall staying in this beautiful cottage. I couldn't recommend it more - wonderful relaxing break!

We had such a lovely time in a beautiful home and every detail was just so thought out. Really nice touches in terms of decorations and also a great use of such a small space too made our stay really comfortable. We had an awful weekend in terms of weather but the cottage was very cosy and we managed to spark up the fire and chilled out with Netflix on the smart tv which was a nice touch! Bed was super comfy and the robe and slippers again another nice touch! The host made us feel at home and was on hand at all times, making sure we had everything we needed. Garden was so pretty and quaint, would love to go back in summer when we could enjoy it! Will certainly be taking some of the ideas for design features back into my own home, and may even buy some knitting needles after being inspired by the ones in the cottage! Thank you, we had a lovely stay!

We loved the Cottage. Warm and cosy and so easy to spend time in. Michelle goes the extra mile with the little details. Special section for our pooch with treats and welcome furry toy was a special touch. This is one Airbnb host who goes the extra mile. The village is very picturesque and the local (Miners arms) is what you would imagine a pub should be.

Lovely stay in this little cottage :) the stairs are very steep just as a warning. Loved all the thoughtful touches!

We had the best time in this fantastic thatched cottage. The location is great, the property is beautiful and Michelle was all that we could have asked for as a host. If we get the chance, we will definitely be coming back!

Perfect little cottage jam packed with great modern amenities you don’t usually find in holiday rentals that make all the difference.

We had an amazing week over New Years in Michelle’s cottage. It had everything we needed and was perfectly situated to explore Cornwall. Would highly recommend staying

This apartment is in an amazing location. It's got stunning views, an easy walk down to the beach and the apartment has everything you need and is really clean. Many thanks!

Fantastic location, spacious accommodation and friendly host, recommend.

Great views, spacious and comfortable accommodations!

The flat was in a great location for exploring Cornwall.We had bad weather but can imagine it’s beautiful in the summer . We walked to the Portreath Arms pub and had a great meal with live music. The flat was clean and had everything you needed - we had a great time

Lovely spacious apartment with stunning views.

Matt very helpful and great location with beautiful views.

Great location over looking the bay and Matt was very friendly! Thank you!

Great place, Matt is a great host.

So peaceful and quiet. Just what I needed! Charming place that had everything I hoped for. Will not hesitate to book again.

Immaculate and stylish property, in a great location, ideal for exploring Cornwall.

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely studio, great location (walking distance to Perranporth beach) and a wonderful host! Definitely recommend!

What a wonderful find! A fabulous, bright, clean, comfy and cosy studio in a great location for exploring Cornwall. Lovely hosts and lots of thoughtful touches. I’d love to come back. Highly recommended.

I think this may well be the best example of Air B&B we’ve experienced. We loved the studio from the moment we arrived. It may be small but it’s perfectly formed, the space is used very cleverly and it felt perfectly spacious for us - a couple and our baby. It was spotlessly clean and Melinda had clearly put lots of thought into making sure the space is well appointed with everything you might need, with quality furniture and fittings and some lovely extra touches too. The location is beautiful, quiet and within easy reach of many of Cornwall’s beautiful towns and beaches, it’s an ideal spot to explore from. Melinda was very welcoming from the first time we talked and she and her husband were very friendly in person. I hope we are able to return one day and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

The studio is beautifully presented, spotlessly clean , bright and fittings are all to a high standard. We were delighted to have found it. Thank you Melinda!

What a fantastic and beautiful place to say. The studio was beautiful and the hosts were amazing. The studio is so nicely laid out, full of light, and clean. It also had just about anything you could ever want of need while staying somewhere other than your own home. The location is perfect as well and wonderfully quiet, with a lovely pub just a short walk away. Our hosts went above and beyond for our little one, and made sure his stay (as well as ours) was comfortable and fun.

The cottage is a very stylish, homey place to stay. The host was great and made sure we had everything we needed. Loved the attention to details (beers in the fridge, heated mattress pad, etc.). The kitchen is great, but we had problems with warming up a pizza as the smoke detector is right above and it started beeping every time we'd open the oven. Give my boyfriend quite a scare. So maybe eat out instead, there are some restaurants nearby! Highly recommend the place!

Wonderful cozy house, just minutes from a wonderful beach. There is a stylish pub on the beach that even does a breakfast on Sunday mornings. We had a fabulous time.

Lovely host, very helpful and quick to respond to messages. House was cosy and comfortable. Great position on the level and close to the beach with amazing costal walks and incredible views.

Fantastic location in a sweet little village, perfect house for a young family.

Lovely house a 2 min walk to the beach! Everything you need. Sky tv a nice touch for the Winters nights! Easy check-in, parking and a great double bed and second room with bunk bed. Camp beds also made up for additional guests!

Convenient spot, easy to find. Close to the beach. Everything you need..constant Wi-Fi for the teenage spawn, mobile coverage on EE (no reception in the village!), beach toys, porch area for sandy shoes, nice big parking space! We had a great time, thanks!

only 5 minutes walk to the beach. the house was cozy and the owner was very accomodating.

Very good, very close to the sea, the beach sand is very good, the reef is very beautiful, our family takes the children to watch the beach by the sea, tourists from China can choose this, really great

A comfortable, large and welcoming house only a short walk from the beach, with off street parking to make things easy. Super comfortable double bed and plenty of options for extra guests if needed. Only my 14 year old son met Sonrisa in person and he reported that she was not only very beautiful but really lovely too - and he’s quite hard to impress! Happy faces all round ...

An awesome little converted barn. Very cosy and comfortable. We had a brilliant stay. Clean, great location and an ideal romantic get away.

Fab little en-suite room, very cute! Handy for A30 travel, very close to gorgeous beaches.

Great space for a weekend trip down to Cornwall, very close to St Agnes for great selection of pubs. Cute, warm little room, perfect place to crash after a day exploring the coast, even in the depths of winter!

Second stay here. Loved it. Hope to be back next year!

The is a lovely quaint space that is exactly as described. Ideal for single or a couple travelling. Right in the centre of Mount Hawke ideal spot to travel from and see the fabulous coastline.

Really nice get away for the weekend, good position for getting to good beaches down the coast. And short drive from st Agnes. The place is very cosy and the bed is very comfy!

Lovely cottage vibes. Close to beautiful beaces and walking distance to a local pub.

Beautiful little house and very good location.

Lovely location, close to the coast and very much in the country.

Beautiful snug welcoming barn with delicious breakfast spread and comfy bed. All we could ask for. Thank you!

This was our second time staying at Bee's place. The location is great, the barn is well equipped, clean, cosy and Bee is an excellent host. I would highly recommend.

Secound time we’ve stayed here and was just add great as last time ! Friendly and welcoming host that were very thoughtful and made our stay perfect. Barn was nice and cosy with a comfy bed and board games

We had the most relaxing time at Bee’s barn. Just what we needed. The barn was amazing, with a bed you could just sleep all day and night in 😍, with the log fire going in the corner of the room . There was freshly home made bread, what was amazing. We will be back for our 3rd time soon . 😁😉

Amazing space and host. Quick to reply to messages and felt like I could contact freely with any questions. Beautiful space with great-character and loads of homely charm and touches. Spotlessly clean and would happily return!

A great place to get away from it all, and just chill.

The space is the perfect mix of rustic and modern; its open plan meets cosy. The fire is so relaxing to unwind by, the bed is wonderful, and the views are spectacular of the surrounding countryside. A five minute drive from St Agnes was great for getting a coastal walk or maybe getting into the water too! The hosts were lovely. We felt catered for, yet without intrusion. I truly reccommend Sloe Barn and Bee and Tom as hosts

Welcoming, thoughtful and friendly host Tertia will ensure your stay is wonderful. I would definitely like to return.

My first air b and b experience so didn't really know what to expect. The bar has now been set very high! Thank you for my stay. The room 'sandy bottoms' was lovely, the little notes, wine, snacks and chocolate, really thoughtful. The book with local amenities was also very helpful. Thank you

Welcoming hosts. A great location. A fairly extravagant breakfast. An easy at-home vibe. Comfort and privacy. Good conversation. An old dog. What a lovely stay at Tertia's place. Highly recommended.

I had a great stay at Tertia's place! She is a great host who pays attention to every detail. The room is very clean, decorated in a nice way and with extra touches like sweets or a small bottle of wine.

A lovely stay in a wonderful and cozy house. Tertia and her husband are very nice. Porhtowan is mainly a beatiful beach, with some shops and 2 pubs. Beatiful walk on the cliffs. Better come with a car.. The room is small but very pretty,. I love the welcome pack with wine, chocolate.. You ll find the happiness and the slow life here..

I felt at home and at ease straight away, Tertia added so many thoughtful touches into the stay, like snacks in the room and homemade jam with breakfast (which was delicious!)

Amazing location. A great little room (only myself staying), very comfortable . Excellent breakfast.

Tertia is a really great host. The room was very nice and comfortable, also every detail in the house and the garden. Especially the breakfast was great and tasty. Thanks for everything.

It's a lovely chalet and Anna and her family are around if you have any questions and can offer great local advice. If you want to go a little bit off grid and want something a bit quirky then this is a great choice. Porthtowan also offers a great beach and good food and drinking options. The locals are all lovely.

A cosy , Cornish cabin ,quirky with amazing view of the sea

Had a wonderful time in Porthtowan. Anna was a very supportive host, easy to communicate with and very responsive. The Chalet was perfect for a quiet weekend away; homely comforts and stunning views of the bay. Local facilities are within a very short walking distance. A really enjoyable weekend was had.

An absolutely spectacular property in a fantastic location. Anna was a great host, responsive and welcoming. We could not have asked for anymore.

A total gem. a fantastic view and great hosts! Excellent decking area, I envy their amazing garden clinging to the hill. Bring a torch if you get there after dark, and be aware of some very slippery areas on the steps leading up, especially in wet weather. Might be difficult for some, but we found it exciting! Facilities spot on. We found it cozy on a stormy October night, the heater fully adequate. There was fresh milk in the fridge. A great stopover before using Newquay airport the next day. Much more fun than a Premier Inn!!

Fantastic chalet set in the porthtowan hillside, with spectacular views for breakfast or sunset. The property is every bit as good as it looks on air bnb, if not better, very clean, very well kept and more than you could want for a weekend away. Area is great fun aswell with easy access to shops, surf hire within a few minutes walk, and a lovely meal is to be had at the Unicorn gastro pub. This area and indeed this chalet is a must visit!

I had a lovely stay here, everything was just as I expected it to be. Lovely recommendations for things to do around Porthtowan for those not familiar with the surroundings. Anna was very friendly on the few occasions I bumped into her. Would stay again if was back in the area (however I'd need to work on my fitness for all the steps a second time around haha )

We had a lovely stay at Anna's place. The location and accomodation where perfect. Had dinner at the blue bar and breakfast at the beach cafe, both where great.

Abi has great communication, is there to greet you, show you how things work in the chalet and recommended places to go. Perfect little stay away especially if you want to travel to different parts of Cornwall as it's very central.

Had a fantastic stay at Abi's place. You could find everything you needed there and she suggested some fantastic things to do whilst we were there. Would 100% recommend to friends and would stay again if we were ever down that way again. Thank you Abi!

Had a great time. Gorgeous space and Abi was an absolute star! 10/10 would recommend and we will be back ❤️

The chalet was very clean and tidy. Everything was spotless. Plenty of pots, pans, plates and cutlery etc. Its a very central location so plenty of places to visit in the immediate area. Great place to stay overall!

Great location, only 15 minutes drive to the Truro park and ride which only cost £1 each on Saturdays which made a great trip out. Good local places for food however If you are looking for a quite night in the kitchen is very well equipped and modern. I liked that the tap doubles up as filtered water. Abi was very welcoming and the response time with the hosts was very prompt and helped lots with recommendations of what to do. Good private parking on driveway and very private location. Also liked the private path to our chalet. Hope to Come again sometime and all the best with the future.

Abi’s place was extremely well equipped especially the kitchen - everything you’d need. Her hospitality was amazing and even left a bottle of prosecco as it was NYE. Would recommend unreservedly !

Amazing cool space in a great area, 10 mins from a couple of nice country pubs! Abi is a great host and will definitely return! Thank you Abi! Couldn’t pick a better spot in Cornwall!

Shine Chalet provides fantastic cosy accommodation. We would highly recommend. The property has been been stylishly and thoughtfully designed. We will be returning to Shine Chalet.

A lovey place in a perfect location to visit the north coast of Cornwall. Amazing beach and walks just down the road. The small shop, proximity to Redruth, and the parking space mean that everything is available very quickly and easily. Very touched from Annie and Dominic too like scones on arrival. The place was warm, and the best very comfortable.

An amazing property with fabulous hosts.... it's cosy, well proportioned, lots of lovely touches and a lovely welcome. And a fabulous location! We'll be coming back.... :-)

Such a cute little chalet, with modern interior. We spent Christmas in the chalet and it was a perfect getaway destination. We loved having the log burner - it made the place even more cosy and warm. We had everything we needed to make Christmas dinner, enough pots and pans etc. They mince pies were a lovely touch, although admittedly, neither of us like them - really appreciated though. The Christmas tree was also a lovely touch and completely unexpected! Fantastic quiet area, amazing beach and a short drive to most places. Would definitely like to visit again sometime in the future :)

We had a wonderful few nights at ‘Shilly Shally’. The house was exactly the cozy retreat we needed from some blustery November weather and was the perfect base for a few days exploring the beautiful coastline. The house is small but perfectly formed with everything you could need and sparklingly clean. The cream tea was a lovely touch and much appreciated.

This place is full of character! A great location right by the beach. I loved being able to wake up and go for a long walk along the beach the curl up in front of the fire to warm up, would love to return we had a great couple of days!

We loved our few days staying at Annie’s ! Fab location near the beach and coastal paths. In a horseshoe shaped cul de sac with small dwellings, I really liked that... to see the comings and goings of the friendly neighbours. Slept so well, perfect for two plus our dog. Thank you, hope to be back before long.

Great location, it has everything you may need and good food places nearby too. It suited our needs for a long weekend!

Had a fantastic stay at Shilly Shally exploring the coast of Cornwall. This place is situated in the heart of Porthtowan with great coastal walks and local restaurants. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking to explore the Cornwall coastal paths or surrounding beaches. Great host.

Ocean Breeze is a wonderful place to stay and the location couldn't be better!

This is such a lovely cozy apartment. Everything has been thought of and it was sparkling clean. Check in was very easy and communication with the host was excellent. Perfect base for surfing and to explore Cornwall. We loved it and will be back.

Loved this place, Mike and Lindas personal touches were brilliant and it's location was perfe t.

Great little find. Location is second to none. Mikes communication and help was faultless. Can not recommend this place enough for a break away from it all.

Superb location Excellent value Great communication Extremely cosy place - even for a family of 5....!

My parents stayed for 2 nights over new year and said it was a beautiful place beautiful location and the bed was incredibly comfy. Mike is fantastic with communication and so helpful the whole time. Thank you again!

We had a lovely weekend as a couple here in December. The apartment is compact and homely, with one of the best views of the beach. It has everything you would need. And Mike's communication was excellent and prompt.

We had a great time staying at Mike's place! Even better than expected. We felt like we were in a cute little cabin, all warm inside whilst it was stormy and cold outside. The apartment is such a great use of space, there were 5 of us and a dog and we had plenty of room due to the way it's laid out. The view is outstanding from the balcony -location is amazing!! Mike was very good at communicating with us via the Airbnb app too. Would definitely recommend! And would love to stay again. Laura

Great location, 5 minute walk to the beach. Other towns are all within 10-20 minute drive. Lovely waves and great accommodation!

Superb apartment with lovely sea views. Warm, cozy and inviting! Excellent location.. with pub on the doorstep! Will and Emma were excellent at communicating everything and made us very welcome with scones, jam and clotted cream on our arrival! Apartment is beautiful . Well equipped and very clean! Lots of fluffy towels too. Thank you so much!

A great apartment which couldn’t be closer to the fantastic beach at Porthtowan, really comfortable for our family of four and just as described. Recommend highly!

Wonderful stay!! Close to the beach and ideal for kids with the play ground just outside. Sparkling clean and perfect for old and young alike. We spent all our time on the beach and the town has a lovely safe chilled vibe. It’s the place to be if you surf! :)

Great place, amazing location right by the beach, playground and shops.

Place is lovely. Great for families and couples. Has a big park right infront and the beach. Garden is lovely and the little touches of scones and clotted cream with jam ...just amazing!

Great apartment in an ideal spot not 2 minutes walk from the beach. Apartment is perfect for family, 2 adults, 14 yr old and 11 yr old had plenty of room. Parking is fine, outdoor area great for bbq/drying wetsuits/chilling in the evening. Porthtowan is lovely. Try the Blue Bar, food and beer was excellent. Family friendly too. Moo maid of Zennor ice creams very nice and a nice little beach shop for nick nacks. Local shop was pretty good. Will is a great host with excellent communications throughout.

This is a bright clean apartment that is a stones throw from the beach and has lovely sea views. It has decent WiFi and the TV has Netflix and Amazon Prime which was great to occupy the kids during downtime. Will has thought of everything regarding facilities you may need from an iron, clothes horse and stocked teabags, milk and coffee on arrival. There are even some outdoor games provided though unfortunately no board games so next time will bring some to play with the children however this is a small negative that would have been a nice addition and did not impact on my positive experience at Just Beachy. Will book again soon.

Rob and Charlotte were very friendly and great hosts, very quick to reply to any messages! The kitchen is well stocked and really clean and the studio is a lovely space. They have written a really great booklet with things to do in the area - the location is amazing! Thanks so much !

A clean, cozy place. Beautifully furnished, it catered for our every needs.

Their place is so nice! Great location, and incredibly helpful hosts. When we visited without a car, they gave us great information about local buses and walks nearby, and even gave us a lift to the bus stop on a Sunday. I would recommend their place to anyone wanting to stay in Cornwall. Thank you!

Really nice place, perfect for a weekend away. Decent kitchen facilities, and very clean throughout. Short ten minute walk into the centre of Porthtowan. Bed was comfortable. Bus stop from Truro is right next to the property too (but note that buses do not run on a Sunday). Would recommend to other guests.

Lovely space, cosy and quiet and very well equipped 😊

Very clean, surprising spacious, all the amenities that you could need and they leave milk and cookies which genuinely put a smile on my face! Highly recommend!

A really good location in Porthtowan with great facilities.

The place was fantastic. Great location, only a 10minute walk to the beach, local pub and corner supermarket. Really clean and the hosts were lovely, around if we needed anything but kept to themselves. Very welcoming and made the stay in Cornwall one to remember.

Brilliant stay. Fabulous hosts. great location. Our stay was set in a perfect location and lovely home. This was our second stay and we hope to stay again in the future

Tertia and her husband have a wonderful and cosy house and so was our room warm and cosy. They were very friendly. But the best was this wonderful breakfast. We know you can give only 5 stars but the breakfast will earn 10 stars homemade jam and joghurt wonderful fruits. Really great our belly was happy

Tertia was the perfect host. She made us feel like her home was our home. We thoroughly enjoyed the personal touches and the delicious breakfast. We would highly recommend.

100% recommendation. Individually, lovingly equipped. Great breakfast, very gladly again.

Our stay at Tertias was fantastic. When we arrived we were greeted with chocolates, Prosecco and a personal note on our pillows wishing us a great stay. The property is perfectly situated a close 5min walk to the beach and local restaurants/pubs. The house itself was decorated beautifully in beach theme which suited the location to a tee. Finally, the breakfast was a great way to kick start our day of exploring, absolutely delish. Thank you so much Tertia.

Porthtowan is a lovely little seaside place with good waves, great walks and scenery, and a laid-back atmosphere. Tertia's house is not far from the sea, maybe 200 metres from the beach. Everything is 5*: the room, the breakfast, the house, the hospitality. On top of this, Tertia, Rowland, Buddy (the old and super-calm dog) and the kitchen budgie exude so much ease with themselves and each other and you as guests that we really felt at home there. Hoping to be back next year! Frank & Michelle

Great location in the village, lovely family feel in the home

Lovely house, really near the beach, perfectly clean and in which we felt perfectly welcome!

Loved this little flat , quirky touches, spotless, lovely little touches and right next to the sea and the pub. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again

We had a really nice stay at the apartment. It's in a great location for Porthtowan and the place itself was perfect for my wife and I.

A fantastic place! Great location near the beach. We had a lovely few days.

We had a lovely weekend in the flat which was warm, comfortable and literally right on the beach. The beds were super comfortable and the flat was well equipped . We ate at The uni corn pub opposite which was stylish and hearty!. Great communication from Charlotte. We hope to return soon.

Lovely flat, really liked the interiors and beds were sooo comfy! Ideal location if you're after a beach, park for little ones and a nice pub!

great location right on the beach and opposite a great pub. Has parking and comfortably accommodates 4 people. A lovely space for a break with friends/family.

This apartment is perfect, excellent location and so lovely. The outside doesn’t look that great but once inside it’s lovely, very clean and the beds are probably the most comfy I’ve ever slept in!!! Charlotte has been the perfect host and has responded almost instantly every time. We arrived to milk in the fridge and a fresh loaf of bread, very thoughtful. Perfect location with a side sea view and a lovely little balcony to get some sea air 😁 We will definitely stay here again 👍🏻

This apartment was amazing! Stylish, cute, and great location. Charlotte was amazing and easy to contact after we had an accident at the beach that left us without any keys. The loaf fresh bread, milk, and bottle of prosecco was so thoughtful. The walk to the beach is short and easy as well a quick walk to the village store for quick groceries. She has everything there you could need and those beds are literal heaven!

Great location, very near the beach. Perfect for a relaxing stay. Great communication with host.

Amazing location 5 mins from the beach, beautiful view of the sea and perfect cosy and clean 2 bed apartment. Everything you need for a short stay... we would love to come back next year!

So I booked late to work at Boardmasters festival, it was all efficient in booking and arrival instructions... arriving in terrible weather I stopped to see the view over Parthtowan, it was spectacular... and there is no doubt this is a beautiful small beachside village, amazing beach, lovely small shop, cafe, and a restaurant by the beach... the apartment is nicely presented and although one row back it has sea views and is only a short walk to the beach... loved hearing the sea crashing on the beach during a windy night stay... this is a perfect place for a couple and two kids for a surfing break... would have been a stretch for four adults... I would go back to Porthtowan... and finally the place was fantastic value....

Great place if you want to be close to the beach

A gem of an apartment overlooking the the beautiful cove of Porthowan. With a 5 minute walk to the beach it's the perfect place to rest up between catching the waves and sunshine of our favourite place in Cornwall.

Lovely place and great location, just seconds' walk from the beach! A great base to explore Cornwall or hit the surf!

Great place to stay, right on the beach, great neighbourhood and a lovely property, especially the bedroom

Great little apartment. Perfect for a weekend away!

What a beautiful place, the guys had obviously thought long and hard as we had everything we needed for a fun packed 4 days, the hot tub was the icing on the cake (cleanest one we have had use of).

We had a great time at ‘Snapper’ and it exceeded our expectations in every way. When we arrived the directions to the lodge were easy to follow and we were in the hot tub within a few minutes (great after the long drive). Accommodation was great. Spacious living / dining area and clean, well decorated bedrooms. Never been to Cornwall before and we all loved it. Lots to see and do, with the lodge a great base to return to each night for a glass of wine and to enjoy the fantastic view (sometimes from the hot tub). Would recommend highly and likely that we will return again next year. We loved it!

Bungalow was spacious and well equipped. Location ideal - peaceful, safe for toddlers and only a 5 minute drive to Portreath with other popular destinations within easy reach. Jacuzzi was loved by all – especially the children. Easy check-in/out and good communications with host. Recommended and would happily stay here again if returning to the area.

Can be a bit hard to find! Very nice cottage in a lovely location!

Book this place! We have just got back from our 6 person stay friends get away and I feel revived. Very relaxing with the use of the hot tub day or night (even in january) and rolling hill views. Beautiful and convenient location with a big tesco just up the road for shopping and a gorgeous woodland walk to the beach. The cottageitself is modern and stylish and had 6 of us living comfotably. Very pleased to have had such a wonderful time.

Fabulous little house at an excellent price! Hot tub was a lovely touch and much used during our stay! Thank you!

A lovely long weekend spent in one of the cottages. Thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and hosts were very accommodating with regards to young families - providing High chairs etc was a bonus!

Great experience, wonderful home. Highly recommended!

Lovely comfortable and super clean house with everything you need for an easy break by the beautiful Cornish coast. Porthtowan is a very short distance from St Agnes and right on the coast path, which we loved. Only 30minute drive to St Ives too. Thank you Lana. Wish we could have stayed much longer!

Great location, well equipped and extremely clean - Highly recommended!

Sparkling clean, close to the beach, spacious and every thing we needed. Lana was super helpful.

A great place with plenty of space and many cozy details. The house is equipped with literally everything you could think about. We are surfers, and we especially appreciated we could hang wetsuits outside, and then to dry them out inside in a special room with dehumidifier. We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Lovely location, the home is even nicer in person! With everything you could possibly need for your stay. Really loved the folder of leaflets with places to explore/visit. Lots of thoughtful touches throughout. We were so thankful to stay here & will be recommending it. Lana was also very quick to answer any questions we had. Thank you 😊

Spacious property with super comfy beds. Perfect location for beach

What a great house, great amenities and so close to the sea. I would stay there again, no hesitation. Lana in my opinion provides all you could ask for and require

Lana’s place is well located for being really close to the beach, shops and bars. It is spotlessly clean! We felt really well looked after. Check-in was easy with the key lockbox. The beds are really comfortable and the bed linen is good. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plates etc and easy to use. The house seems bigger than the photos and as four adults and a baby we had plenty of room! Lana provided a baby bath and high chair and she offered to provide a cot too but we brought our own. The internet is good and constant which is a plus - particularly as it’s in an area that has little phone reception (although phone reception seemed good on the beach if needed!). The blue bar and the unicorn were really close by and we had excellent meals in both. We highly recommend this place! Thank you Lana for a really great stay. For all you others: Stop looking and just book it!!!

Very comfortable, clean and well equipped house , perfect location for anyone thinking of The Arc of Attrition race and rambling in the area .

This is a lovely bungalow well equipped and maintained and great location close to beach. It is very spacious whilst being homely. Highly recommend

Really near a lovely beach. Plenty of room inside and out. Quiet location has everything you need and is lovely and clean. Great house

Great place in a lovely location. Really well equipped, with a lovely outdoors.

A great place in a great location. Clean, well equipped, fab garden!

Amazing spacious place. Clean and full of light with a lovely garden. Less than 5min away from a beach. The house has everything you would need, even shower gel. We were extremely pleased with the way the house looked.

This is a lovely 4 bedroom holiday home with 1 bathroom. It’s on the outskirts of the village Porthtowan which has a lovely beach with pay and display parking. It’s not possible to walk to the beach with kids as there is no pavement and it’s a busy, fast road. The home is shared with a tenant who stays in the annex, he keeps to himself although his windows overlook the back garden. The back garden is lovely and huge with a bbq and seating. The neighbours greet you and give you the key and a tour of the home. This was a lovely home which gave us a good base to stay in to explore Cornwall for 5 nights.

A lovely house set in amazing countryside.

A fabulous space which you feel at home in straight away - in the most incredible location. Can’t recommend enough if you’re looking for a cosy space for relaxing evenings and adventure filled days.

Rose's flat is a great place to stay when visiting this part of Cornwall. Its cosy and comfortable. It was really clean and has everything you need. You can see the sea from the balcony and Porthtowan is a lovely little village with a great beach and a couple of lovely places to eat.

This is a wonderful apartment in Porthtowan, a tiny beach village. It has two floors -- living room/kitchen/bathroom and bedroom. It is pretty, compact, very comfortable, and well-equipped (esp the wahsing machine). The view of the sea is breath-taking. I cannot recommend enough.

The cottage and Porthtowan are both hidden Cornwall gems. The cottage is within a short walk to the beach, shop and pubs what more do you need! Food at the Blue bar by the beach was really good. The cottage was clean, cosy and comfortable. We would highly recommend it.

A lovely cosy place, well situated and spotlessly clean. Lots of useful information was provided by Rose. I would highly recommend staying here.

Cozy and very peaceful place with all amenities, terrace with a sea view. Located within stone throw to the beach and next to a nice coastal path. Rose is very easy to communicate with.

Lovely little space in a really excellent location - sea views and just a few minutes’ walk down to a lovely beach. Would happily return

We had a great time staying at Rose's place. The space is stylish and very comfortable. We would happily return.

The Chalet was perfect for our autumn getaway despite the crazy weather! The place itself is lovely and clean with plenty of room for the two of us and would comfortably sleep at least another two in the upstairs room. The facilities were great, with everything we needed in the kitchen and overall. The location is also perfect for trips to the rest of Cornwall with St Ives and Perranporth nearby. Porthtowan itself was lovely with the little beach and a great cliffside walk though perhaps go on a calmer day than we did to avoid being blown everywhere! Special mention to the Unicorn pub/restaurant too where all the staff were great! Would definitely look at booking again on a future trip to Cornwall

Great value, just minutes walk from fab bit of coast. Super clean!

Lovely chalet and very well situated in the village. The two pubs serve great food and the beach is spectacular. Excellent value for money. Definitely recommend.

A great little chalet in a beautiful part of Cornwall. We will definately return!

A lovely little space in a quiet spot with beautiful beach and some great places to eat nearby.

The chalet was perfect for us whilst visiting friends in the village. Located a short walk from this beautiful bay, and perfect for getting around Cornwall. A cosy little chalet, with all the amenities the two of us needed for the week.

We had a great time at Sasha’s place, lovely chalet in a perfect location! Just a few minutes walk to the beach and village shops. Very quiet location, perfect for exploring Cornwall! Would definitely book again!

My family and I had an amazing holiday at the chalet. The chalet is lovely, clean, stylish and has everything you need for a great stay. Sasha is a great host, provides excellent info and quick responses. Sasha was always available if needed. Porthtowan is a lovely town with a nice beach and amenities like shop, cafe, bar, playground. We would recommend Sasha and the chalet and would definitely go again.

Great place to stay, the views are spectacular and Dominique is a great host with quick responses. The house is nice and roomy with views from all over and a great fire place to warm you up after a nice walk.

We had a wonderful stay at Dominique's house. It was a very good size for three couples, with a cozy fireplace and a sunroom for enjoying the view. It's close to the footpath down to Porthtowan or to the coastal trail along the cliffs. The kitchen was large and very well appointed, with local Cornwall tea, jam, and biscuits provided by our host. Dominique was very communicative and helpful every step of the way. Highly recommended!

We loved our stay at Dominique's. We were a group of 8, including a 3 month old, and it was perfect for what we were after. Spacious with a great conservatory area and large garden for a bbq whilst watching the sunset. A short walking distance to the beach where we booked in for a surf lesson with Dominique herself - would highly recommend doing this! All the bedrooms in the house were lovely with very comfy beds, and the kitchen was really well equipped which was great! Overall a wonderful few days!

This is our second time at this house, so we knew what we were walking into. Dominique is really helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The house is in a great location, with everything needed to accommodate the 6 of us (2 adults, 4 children), offering a lovely conservatory, too, for escaping to read ones book, and enjoy the sound of the sea. Just a minutes (or so) walk to the coastal path, offering amazing views over the sea and sunsets. The beach is also in walking distance (though a bit of an up hill stroll back), offering great surfing and body boarding (you can also drive down and park). And lastly, the house is in walking distance to great pubs/cafes for lunch/dinner too. We're already looking at planning our return visit once more.

A perfect setting and wonderful house! Couldn’t have been better! Lovely owner too, we will be coming back .

Great views, relaxing atmosphere, great facilities and cleanliness is the best way to describe what to expect from these great hosts.

A lovely house in a great position. Highly recommend it for a family get away

This is a beautiful home in a fantastic location. The rooms are lovely and large and the views are amazing. Lovely garden as well. The house is in great condition and was lovely and clean when we arrived. Dominique was around to help us with advice on things to do. Great location for the beach and for exploring the coast. Would definitely go again!

Wow! What a place. Steeped in history this engine house was a perfect stay right on the beach for some R&R. Split On 3 levels This very spacious conversion offers ample living space and amenities for a wonderful stay. The top floor living room has a hammock with wonderful views out to sea and a lovely lounge area with tv. The middle floor has a lovey log fire place and more huge windows with sea views. The kitchen is fully equipped with every you would need. The lower floor has 3 bedrooms with very comfort beds and a bathroom. There is also a wet room and laundry facilities on the mid level. The surrounding area has some great walks and 2 very good bars. A very enjoyable Break and a lovely home. Thankyou Robert and Sam

The most fantastic house in an amazing location. The perfect relaxing Winter retreat and ideal for dog owners who want to enjoy a break with their pets. The beach is on your doorstep and open to dogs during the Winter months with miles of headland walks. Cosy, comfortable with a definite laid back vibe. Robert was super quick to respond to our query regarding the landline phone which was missing its handset and ordered a replacement which came the next day.

Awesome location, Rob always responded straight away. This place has s very characteristic.

Stylish, cosy and charming - lots of clean towels and hot water for post beach chilling. Great walks - would bring a car next time to expand beyond the surfing community. Lovely stay for whole family. Robert very helpful

Had an amazing stay at the Engine house. It is a beautiful house, right by the beach. We could see the sun setting from the house. We used the wood fire pizza oven to make pizza on our first night, they were best pizzas. Robert gave us lots of tips for our stay, we went to the Beach Cafe for an amazing breakfast. The neighbour's were lovely and also gave us some tips.

Really quirky property in a fantastic location - it couldn't be closer to the beach, great for a family holiday in a wonderful village. Our family of 5 had plenty of room and we made good use of all amenities, inc Netflix, fast wifi, pizza oven, surfing. Robert was super-quick getting back on any questions we had. Altogether a v happy and positive experience!

We’ve just returned from our lovely family holiday at the Engine House. The location of the house is just fabulous! The house itself is superb. Even with some wet and windy days, we found there was still plenty to explore and enjoy in the local area. As far as hosts go, Robert and his wife Sam were amazing. If we needed to contact them, they were always a phone call away. They made us feel we could use the house as our home. Thank you so much!

The best house on arguably the most beautiful beach in Cornwall. Million dollar views, a great kid’s playground next door, sand between your toes on the doorstep, a wood fired pizza oven... it’s utterly magical. Even the neighbours are great. Robert is a lovely and considerate host, we’ll be staying again and again if he’ll have us.

This the second time we have stayed. We live it, very quiet ideal to unwind at Recommend

A lovely escape in rural Cornwall, warm and cosy and perfect to get away from it all.

Secluded, bijou, everything one needs. Just don't go there if require WiFi/Internet etc. Just the space to really relax away from it all. Good walks all around & definitely no interference from host unless required. A real place to just unwind..

Definitely recommend Alisa’s place. Very quite and relaxing, very well equipped for its size. Would stay again, we loved it.

This is a very cute, simple little cottage in a pretty amazing area. You can walk all the way up Carn Brea from the doorstep :) Not too easy to find (it is not the Carnkie in Helston!) but Alisa was very helpful with directions and quick to respond. Very quiet and solitary - a great little escape!

This is a very sweet, warm and cosy nest. It provides all that is needed and it is in a charming location among ruins of the mining past of the area. The coast is at about 20-30 minutes driving and it is stunning, also featuring St Ives. We had a great week and also enjoyed the amazing hospitality and kindness of Ailsa always ready to help and support us.

Great place, highly recommended.

An amazing little property in a perfect location. If you love the peace and quiet of the countryside and yet still have all amenities close to hand, this is the place for you !

Christine's house is lovely, warm and welcoming. It has a great layout, there is lots of room in kitchen and dining space - with a separate lounge which is warm and cosy, with underfloor heating. Lovely comfy beds and great bathrooms with a walk in shower. The deck would be amazing in nice weather with fabulous views. Would love to return.

Great rental property

An excellent place to stay in a great location for the beach and Porthtowan. Comfortable and well appointed. The host was easily contactable and very helpful.

Highly recommended

Great place to stay, clean,warm and good array of equipment if your wanting to cook at home. 5 or so mins to work down the hill to the beach which also has some great place to eat.

We had a wonderful stay at Christine’s house. Perfect location and everything was as expected - easy check in - wonderful accommodation and location. It was only a short break but will definitely look to stay longer another time. Thank you 🙏 😊

This house is in a great location overlooking the bay, the deck is lovely to sit out on and the glass blocks the wind. Just above the house is a viewpoint where you can catch the sunset. Great views from the bedrooms, very comfy beds. Nice to cook in the kitchen and lots of space to sit and enjoy a meal. Love having a boot room (utility room) at the back. We used this entrance to get coats and boots off before going into the cosy house.

We had a fantastic stay in Porthtowan, we can't wait to return soon. The highest recommendation possible, we will definately be booking back into Sea Otter

The beach house is a comfortable place to stay. It was clean, and we had a welcome card and cream tea on arrival that were very gratefully received. The location is just great for walks on the beach and along the coastal path.

Just as advertised in a great location

The house is brilliantly situated right near the beach. It has parking right outside . Good pubs and cafe right nearby. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. There is good walking all around. Also great location to explore Cornwall. It was great to have tea, coffee, milk, kitchen roll and w up liquid provided , a nice touch.

Lovely house, exceptionally clean, great location and parking. We had fantastic weather too which was an added bonus. The cream tea was a lovely welcome. Great ice cream parlour that is a must everyday. We really had a lovely time and will definitely be back. Thank you xxxx

Lovely place. Excellent location. Will revisit.

Located 100 meters from a beautiful beach. Comfortable and pleasant house.

Fabulous home. Perfect location. Great little beach village. Easy for day trips all around Cornwall. I would recommend The Beach House to families, friends, and to everyone alike! Lisa is a great host, super easy check-in, very welcoming and lovey personal touches.

Cheers to Lisa for a great holiday home. Perfect for our family of four. Location was excellent. Two minute walk to the less-crowded Porthtowan beach, cafe and shops. Spectacular panoramic views on the SW coast path. Looking forward to coming back. Thanks again Lisa!

A very quaint little cabin surrounded by beautiful fields, nice and cosy, easy to find with parking for one car. Dog friendly with secure garden and nothings too much trouble, hosts were welcoming and quick to respond. Thankyou

Great hospitality.

Beautiful place to stay, in a beautiful part of Cornwall easy to get anywhere :)

I was here for a quick overnight stay for work. The self-checkin worked well for this. I would definitely consider staying here for a non business trip and bring my dog too!

Good location for local amenities, very clean and comfortable stay.

This place was perfect for a few days away. It was clean, comfortable and warm with everything you need :). Just remember to bring some flip flops or something for the wet room as it gets soaking wet on the floor when you shower. Quick responses from the hosts! Thank you for a great stay :)

Fabulous space, great hosts and a super location

Wonderful hosts, so helpful and kind! The place itself was lovely and made to feel very homely. I would definitely stay here again!
