Cosy cottage on the edge of Portwrinkle beach
We loved staying at the Rocket House with our little dog. It felt like a home away from home, comfortable, spacious, and light, and I spent many hours sitting watching and listening to the sea from the big front window. It was so relaxing being so close to the beaches and sea, and being able to pop out and sit by the harbour. Portwrinkle was a lovely place, very friendly, and on the SW coast path so you could walk easily, and close to Crafthole for dinner and the community shop (an uphill walk but then down on the way back!). We visited Cawsand and Kingsand, Looe, Polperro, Antony house, Wilcove, Mount Edgcumbe, all nearby and beautiful. We will come back and stay again because I loved the home itself, the location, and the peace of the view and sea. Doing my yoga practice with the window open and the sound of the sea was wonderful. I didn't want to leave but I came home feeling rested and happy. Thank you so much.

Sea Shore Beach House at Hayle Towans, St Ives Bay
Fantastic place to stay. We came as family with a toddler as well grandparents and both families dogs and it was perfect for us. Easy to get to the beach and costal path. Stunning views. Great location for seeing things - loved getting the train from st. Erth to st. ives. The house itself was super practical. Loved the outside shower and cleaning facilities for us and the dogs after getting sandy on the beach. Lots of books that our toddler loved reading and playing with the toys. Just great. Richard was an amazing host and really accommodating to our needs. A very special holiday.

Fantastic Beach Location and Fabulous Views
This place is a real gem and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for beautiful views, peace and serenity. It's within a short walk of amazing beaches and close to all local amenities that you need. St. Ives is easily accessible and we used it as a base for many other Cornish locations - Penzance, Land's End and Falmouth were an easy drive away. The property itself, aside from being in a great location, was very well equipped, spotlessly clean and had all amenities that were advertised and the pictures in the listing were accurate and recent. Karen was a great host, very responsive and left a number of goodies in the kitchen to welcome us, which was an extra special touch that we didn't expect. We stayed for 7 nights and could easily have stayed longer.

Boutique 4 bed beach house with amazing sea views!
We had the best weekend staying in Amanada’s house celebrating a birthday it was beautiful. The house is even more beautiful than in the photos & my 2 year old loved looking out to sea every morning seeing the birds. We will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you so much ☺️ one bonus for families thinking of booking that I did not see prior to our stay is the stairgate at the top of the stairs to the kitchen it was perfect with 2 young children we could shut this off.

House by The Sea with THE View
As a family of 4 the property was ideal, it had all the amenities required for our 4 day stay. The property is stunning, so tastefully furnished and decorated, it is in a prime location with stunning sea views. Its location is great for strolling into Penzance and a short car journey to local sites, such as the Minack theatre, which is well worth a visit as well as St Ives. We were luckily enough to meet Lenn during our stay, he knows the area well and gave some great suggestions as well as being a great host, we found the property easily and followed Lenn’s instructions to a tee, we would recommend Lenn and Gord’s beautiful property, and was very sad to leave it to come home, a stunning find x

Luxury waterside wharf house 200m to beach
A gorgeous house within walking distance of Hayle beach. The house was brilliantly appointed and was very comfortable. Gorgeous views over the estuary enhanced our stay. Annie was a great host - very responsive and informative.

Waterfront quayside house by the beach St Ives Bay
Beautiful place! Would 100% stay again! We requested decorations to be put up for arrival as it was my mams 50th birthday. We sent decorations but they weren’t put up when we arrived. We spoke with Malcolm about this and he came straight over the next morning to do this while we were out and left some beautiful cupcakes, helped us rectify the heating as it was very hot, and was available at all times when we needed! Beautiful place! Very local to lots of shops and very close to the train station: beautiful views!

Amazing Home with Hot Tub and minutes from Beach
Beautiful place for a family weekend. Rachael was very clear with her instructions. The jacuzzi was fantastic! Would definitely recommend for family getaway!
Beach house rentals with a pool

Treheyl, Pentire, Newquay
Absolutely stunning location! The views are outstanding and the private access direct to the estuary/beach is great. The garden is steep but that’s to be expected, we made great use of the pool and hot tub and it was an added bonus that we could use the paddle boards! The house its self is beautiful and spotlessly clean. A few things do need sorting though, there was the odd missing door handle, bifold doors are hard to use and the master bathroom door didn’t close. However these didn’t bother us at all as everything else was perfect. Easy walking distance to Crantock and Fistral beaches, which were both beautiful. We would 100% book again! Thank you for a fantastic stay :)

Lavender House - Crantock
The house was a lovely, quiet, comfortable, place for my whole family to stay for a long weekend. Well situated and equipped for all of us and contributed to a very pleasant trip.

Valley View at Newquay Bay Resort
Family of 5, (4 adults 1 child) stayed may halfterm. Location is great. 5 minutes drive from Porth beach and 10 minutes from Newquay town centre. Caravan was lovely and clean, looked just as the photos shown. Very good price! Would definitely return!

Luxury pool & hot tub beach house, sleeps 24
We’re so glad we chose to stay at Halula Beach House for my hen do weekend, it was the perfect pad! Pool, hot tub, silent disco, huge table we could all sit round… and just a few minutes walk to the gorgeous beach. Would highly recommend it!

House 2: Detached 4-Bed With Hot Tub & Sea Views
We enjoyed a welcome retreat away in Talland Bay, it was perfect for lots of walking and then soaking in the hot tub with beautiful sea views. We would definitely go back.

Newquay Bay Holiday Resort, Caravan No 65
An amazing stay! Very friendly and responsive host. I will definitely be recommending and looking to book again in the future. A little hidden beauty. Thank you again!

Beautiful Home with Pool Overlooking Camel Estuary
We loved our family stay at William’s place! It was loaded with all the amenities that we needed. The kitchen was very well stocked. The heated pool was a great addition when the ocean was cold. The location was amazing…walk into town or take the Ferry across to Padstow for lots of great shopping and eateries. We would definitely stay there again.

My Surf View Fistral, a new house with sea views
We had a wonderful time at Jenny’s place. The location of the house is lovely, and the balcony really allows you to make the most of the beautiful views. The space itself is very homely, with a good amount of space. We would highly recommend staying with Jenny!

Sunkeeper - Luxury home with sea views & hot tub
We’ve had a gorgeous stay at Sunkeeper and like everyone else the photos don’t do it justice! It’s absolutely spotless, well equipped with some lovely homely touches. Highly recommended the gorgeous tapas restaurant a short walk away - beautiful food and excellent cocktails. Ashley and Charlotte were superb hosts too.

Sandy Toes + Salty Air
Corri’s cottage is fabulous, beautifully decorated with comfortable sofas and beds. Kitchen was kitted out with everything we needed to cook on the few evenings we didn’t eat out. Lovely garden with sofas/chairs to lounge on which we did get to enjoy despite some mixed weather. Mousehole is a perfect place to set off on some stunning costal walks which is what we spent our week doing. We also enjoyed dinner at 2 Fore Street, Mackerel Sky & the Tolcarne Inn.

St Agnes coastal home, hot tub, by beach & pubs
What an amazing find! Utterly private and feels very rural. Even though the lovely village of St Agnes and glorious beaches and towns are only a short distance away! Very cosy and eclectic home with some delicious treats and a bottle of fizz left by Kate and Simon. If you do stay, you HAVE TO use Sunny Spice, whether it’s for takeaway or eat in. Best South Indian food and yummy dosas I’ve had outside of London or Kerala! Thank you for making us so welcome and for the brilliant recommendations of places to go and local eateries.

Cornwall - Ocean view, hot tub, sauna, sleeps 6
We visit Cornwall every year and this is the first time staying in a house, rather than a holiday park. So pleased we did it. The house is stunning and has the most amazing views over Portreath. We barely had the TV on (rarity with a 13 & 15 yr olds)and walked down to the sea most evenings or just sat and watched the waves. Ryan was patient with my questions and extremely helpful and adaptable to requests. Thank you for making our stay a memorable one.

Nevada - Stylish Fowey Townhouse with harbour view
Lovely, relaxing stay in a beautiful, comfortable house. Fantastic views over the estuary, which we enjoyed whilst having breakfast on the balcony. As expected for hilly Fowey, the walk back up from town is fairly steep, but still doable for the oldest member of our party. Although there is no parking outside the house, you can park to unload and load, then park in the car park, a short walk up the hill. It's cheaper to pay for the week's parking, rather than pay each day. In all a very enjoyable stay and we'd be delighted to re-visit if we didn't live so far away (in Scotland)

Luxury 5BR Beach House with spectacular sea views
My family had a lovely break at Emma’s gorgeous place over May half term. It’s incredibly well stocked in terms of everything our group needed with two little ones and wanting to spend lots of time on the local beaches. Emma was on hand if we had any questions and was very responsive. We’re already looking at when we can come back!

Stunning St Merryn Home, close to Constantine Bay
We absolutely loved our stay at Nick’s place, the house is beautiful and was absolutely perfect for us! The location is lovely for a walk to Constantine Bay and is a short drive from Padstow and other lovely beaches. We will absolutely be staying again :)

Modern Flat with Seaviews, Garden and Free Parking
Susan was delightful! Everything was immaculate and any queries were answered straight away! Would absolutely stay there again! Wonderful host, thank you!!
