Feel rejuvenated by the sights and sounds of the sea with a stay in Porthleven on Cornwall’s south coast. This mighty four-bedroom holiday home sits proudly on the seafront, boasting exceptional sea views that are a joy to wake up to every single morning. The three-storey property is incredibly spacious with room for up to seven guests and two dogs to stay, an ideal choice for any larger group of holidaymakers or an extended family relishing a long-awaited get-together. Truly a fantastic option for those hoping to keep kids busy, you’ll find games, table football, a Wii console and plenty more entertainment to fill those long, restful evenings.

High ceilings, bay windows and bright décor add to the overall convivial feel of this fantastic holiday home. Discover two lounge areas on the ground floor, both with comfortable seating and entertainment options, ideal for giving kids a place to hang out that’s separate from the adults. The whole family can come together, however, when enjoying delicious meals at the dining table or outside in the enclosed patio garden. A versatile utility-come-shower room can also be found on the ground floor. Four bedrooms are laid out over the first and second floors, one of which is a king-size with an en-suite bathroom and incredible sea views.

Porthleven is an exceptionally vibrant town with a golden sand beach, a bustling harbour (both 0.5 miles), and some foodie-approved destinations that you simply must try. From here you’re well positioned for exploring coast and country walks, whether that be along the South West Coast Path (less than 100 metres), amongst the pleasant woodlands of Penrose Hill or around The Loe lake (both 1.5 miles). You can also venture deeper into the Lizard Peninsula to find further beaches and clifftop beauty spots or take a day trip to St Michael’s Mount (9 miles).
