Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Porthleven

We borrowed buckets and spades (and trucks and diggers) from the collection in the shed and took the short walk down to the lovely sandy beach most days. My granddaughter had heaps of fun playing in the shallow pools and golden sand in the sun. There were bodyboards too, but she's a little little for that just yet. Nanny was usually to be found observing us from the comfort of the Cove Cafe and admiring the wonderful vista - St Ives Bay in the sunshine (which is also the view from the house itself). The bravest of us swam in the chilly sea and returned invigorated, eyes sparkling. Suki charged about with energy and enthusiasm, greeting every other dog on the beach. We highly recommend this place. Notes: It's a flat beach, so the sea is very close a high tide and a long way off at low tide. Eating out in Cornwall is expensive. The house has a well-equipped kitchen and there is a Lidl and M&S Food Hall nearby if you are minded to eat in. The train St Erth<->St Ives is a nice option.

We loved staying at the property. It was bright and clean, and uncluttered. It had everything we needed, the kitchen was well equipped. The weather was changeable while we were there, but we felt very cosy when needed. The location is fantastic, we had come down by train, and were able to walk to Marazion. We also had access to the Penzance bus, which we used on our last day to get to the train station. There are also local shops and pubs within walking distance. Karly and her family were very friendly, we felt we could have approached them if we had needed anything. They had very thoughtfully left a bottle of wine and milk for when we arrived. We will be returning to Cornwall in the future, and would stay at this property again, it was such good value for money for the high standard of accommodation.

Absolutely loved our stay at Dans place, anything we needed him and Gary were super responsive and helpful! Would highly recommend!

We had a truly superb stay! The apartment was immaculately clean and incredibly well-equipped, providing everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Danielle and Mark were exceptional hosts, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. We particularly appreciated the comfortable bed, the wonderful hot shower, and the bonus of a private garden where we could unwind. The location was perfect, with a beautiful, golden-sand beach just a walk away – it was lovely to sit at the bar there and admire the view. The scenic public footpath to St Ives was also a real highlight.

Lovely stay at the cottage. Immaculately cleaned. Nice decor and had everything you would need including a washing machine, oil and lovely touches such as games and books for the children. Rachel and her family were very welcoming and friendly. Its a good location to explore lizard and surrounding beaches. My son loved how the farm had football goals and my daughter loved visiting the chickens and goats on the farm. I would recommend this place. Thank you.

We had such a lovely stay at Joseph’s place in Hayle. Perfect location for travelling around Cornwall. The house was modern, clean and tidy. Joseph was really responsive and helpful.

This was a last-minute break, and worked so well for us. Beautiful location- it was lovely to drink coffee in the morning outside, overlooking the sea. Such a peaceful place, and close to lots of lovely places to visit. Charlotte's information was really comprehensive- lots of recommendations for food etc.

Staying here felt like staying in a fairytale Cornish cottage. It was cosy, cute and had everything you need. Peachy thought of everything a guest might need. The added bonus was the pretty garden to sit & have a drink. It’s a a stones throw away from the harbour & lovely restaurants. It is a magical place and we would love to come back one day. Highly recommend!

Loved staying at Sunnybank and would gladly return. It's a delightful, relaxing home with everything you could need (including a full kitchen and very comfortable living and bed room), in a peaceful yet central location. The host is really friendly and helpful. There's walks right on the doorstep and the fish and chips a ten minute walk away are some of the best I have ever eaten.

We absolutely loved our stay at Tom’s . Beautiful flat with a beautiful garden & views . Tom was helpful and informative & the cream tea was a welcome treat after a 4 hour drive . I Would return here every weekend if I could !! Thank you so much for everything ☺️

Lovely 4 night stay in very comfortable accommodation. We had everything we could of needed and more. Lis is a very pleasant host and was readily available if needed. Great place for exploring that area of Cornwall 😊😊

Alison's kind hospitality & welcoming was excellent & the accommodation was stunning & immaculate. If you like a quiet location it's ideal but travelling across Cornwall is no problem as main rd's are accessible from Helston. Alison gave us some good recommendations for restaurants which we tried & were delighted with.

Such a lovely place to stay, easy to get around Cornwall from and really felt at home!

We had a lovely 5 night stay here, and it was everything we needed. The apartment is beautiful, light, comfortable, well equipped, and has a wonderful view of Portreath Beach. Katherine was very helpful and responded very quickly to messages. We would stay again.

The stay was great it was in a good location. It was a 5-10 minute walk down to the bus and train station and 10-15 in to town and restaurant. The place had what we needed for our stay. Emma also had a folder with all the information you need for our stay and helpful recommendations for things to do and places to eat. If you needed anything else Emma was just a message away and was very helpful. Will be back again

My wife and I had a marvelous one week stay in this cosy and tranquil condo with panoramic views of gorgeous Carbis Bay and easy access to public transport, including the local rail service that runs between St Ives and St Erth just five minutes walk downhill. Spotlessly clean and well provisioned, with a huge light filled kitchen featuring newer appliances, and one of the bathrooms conveniently located downstairs. It was such a pleasure staying in a place reflecting pride of ownership and professional management, creating a thoroughly enjoyable guest experience. The master bedroom mattress was a bit too soft for us, but we seem to be the outliers based on reviews. Highly recommend.

The studio is beautifully presented and very extremely clean. Toiletries and linens are lovely and Elizabeth goes above and beyond in providing extra ‘incidental’ items that are so useful - spare toothbrushes, spectacle wipes etc. For wet days there is a large selection of reading and games material. We had everything we needed but I also felt that Elizabeth would respond immediately if there were any issues whatsoever.

We had such a lovely stay! The accommodation was as described, really clean with beautiful art. The view from the garden was stunning. Jane was so friendly & helpful from the moment we booked. Carbis Bay beach is a short walk away with restaurants looking out over the sea. It's so easy to get around, the station is a quick walk away & less than 5 minutes to get into St Ives. The location was perfect for us, we spent a day travelling around to Lands End & St Michael's Mount. Everything was perfect, would definitely recommend & would love to stay again!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. If anyone wants to know how to run an Airbnb this is a perfect example. The apartment is set in a peaceful position, overlooking open fields. We explored many of Cornwall’s attractions and coastal resorts during our stay (by car). Paul and his wife were wonderful hosts.

Damian was very friendly and helpful especially when it came down to finding the parking. Very easy to talk to when it came to checking in/out. Highly recommend this place and could have stayed longer!

So nice to arrive after a long journey to find the water hot with excellent shower facilities, a welcoming comfortable bed with good quality bedding. We were told it was dog friendly, so we were appreciative to find bowls, towel etc., should you forget. The location was ideal for exploring the North Coast and we made full use of our NT membership. Wonderful dog friendly beaches and eating establishments very accomodating. we particularly enjoyed Godrevy and Holywell Coves. ''Tap House'' in St Agnes is a must , great food reasonably priced , but make sure you book and allow time for parking.

This is a small apartment and it is perfect for 2 adults. The location of the apartment is excellent for walks along the South west coast path. There is a nice little fish and chip shop and a pub, in the village, that both serve good food. I am a Coeliac on a Gluten Free diet and I had no problem eating at both establishments. The location of this Airbnb is definitely worth the money.

was a lovely place to stay a short walk to the beach. Diana was extremely helpful! we all love it

Great stay in a lovely place with friendly and accommodating hosts. Recommendations for eating out were spot on. Our first stay in air bnb and sets high standard
