Cottage holiday rentals in Penzance

We spent 3 nights staying at the Mowhay. It was the perfect mix of peaceful hideaway whilst being well connected to major roads and local amenities. The accommodation was well laid out with a very well equipped kitchen. Claire was great at communicating from booking to check out and we met Geoff a couple of times during our stay who was super friendly. Would thoroughly recommend!

Beautiful traditional Cornish cottage located within a very peaceful village but only 10mins drive from loads of beautiful beaches. Added benefit of a hot tub which unfortunately we didn’t get to use with a 2 year old in tow! Would highly recommend.

We had the most wonderful time.The location of the property is great for exploring and the setting so peaceful! The pictures perhaps did not do it full justice as it was even better!being in a bath over looking the countryside was next level! Clare was very clear on the whole process of how to get to the property,check in,ideas for places to visit and things to do.The personalised written message and goodies are special touches that mean a lot so thank you!cannot praise everything about our stay enough!we hope to be back!X

This was our third stay at Nancy's House. Here are some of the things that drew us back: snug but spacious house that feels loved and lived in, peacefully tucked into a farm where interesting things always seem to be happening, and just a few steps from exhilarating open spaces; lovely hosts. Oh, and the hot-tub is very nice!

A really homely cottage. Perfect for a few days getaway. Unfortunately it rained on our break so ended up stuck inside. It would have been nice to have sat outside more! Overall it has what it says on the tin. Don't go here if you are expecting all mod cons and a pristine home. It's just somewhere cosy to get away from it all, with friendly owners and lots of privacy.

What a beautiful spot, the views are fantastic and there is so much outside space! We loved the fishing lake and hot tub area which made it for us! Prefect lovely and good value.

Tracy was very responsive and helpful. You immediately felt like she really cares that her guests have every comfort and feel welcome. The clotted cream and scones on arrival were a lovely touch that we really appreciated. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything you can possibly need. The area was perfect for us and easy to get to all the places we wanted to visit us St Ives, Falmouth to name just two. Our only regret was that it was only a 3 night stay this time but we will be sure to return for longer next time.

This place was such a great find! We’ve just got back from the most perfect week away. We originally only booked for 4 nights but we extended our stay as we were having such a wonderful time. The place is just lovely with everything you need for a relaxing stay. We loved our welcoming gifts too. Kate and Simon are brilliant hosts and were extremely easy to contact. St Agnes is a beautiful location with some superb coastal walks. There’s also plenty of places to go out for food and drink. The beach is stunning also. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who is considering it (just book it!). Thanks again for a brilliant stay Kate and Simon!

We stayed at Mellinzeath 28 years ago for a week of our honeymoon, and decided to revisit for our anniversary. What a transformation! The property has been restored beautifully and sympathetically, and now feels loved again. Everything - the materials used for the fabric of the building, fixtures, fittings and equipment - is of excellent quality, and there are many little touches which make it extra welcoming. Even Obi, our dog, had his own welcome pack and a warm shower outside. This is a very special property in a tranquil, secluded setting, with nothing but the birds for company. Wish it had been like this for our honeymoon.....

The cottage was very clean and comfortable. We loved relaxing in the warm conservatory after our days out walking. Easy walking access to SW coast path and within 15 minutes car ride of Penzance and St Just.

If I could give 10 stars, I would. Mary was such a gracious and wonderfully charming host that I would have loved to spend more time at her cottage. During my stay, Mary showed me the surrounding area, including a beautiful garden and her field, and Mary & her partner Charles also gave me a lift to a pub for dinner. Mary & Charles are both very knowledgable and I enjoyed learning about the history and geology of Cornwall from them!

We stayed at James' Telegraph Cottage specifically to go to a production at The Minack Theatre: it was an excellent choice in so any ways! The theatre was within walking distance, there was a fabulous nearby beach, and walks were endless. The accommodation and James' hospitality were superb: both ensuites were new, the cottage was roomy with a quite large kitchen and the garden was a great asset for sitting and having an evening wine! James was always so quick to answer the questions we had, and emailed copious notes regarding finding the place, pubs and walks. Couldn't have been better in every aspect. We would like to return!!

We simply loved the cozy cottage up the hill with the wonderful view. We stayed for 5 nights and would have stayed longer if possible. The sea shore is only a short walk (~10 mins) away. From there, the beautiful coastal path takes you either south to the beaches and Land's End or north to Cape Cornwall and St. Just. The cottage is perfectly located for both fantastic hikes and serene time at home. Just one thing, I wouldn't advise to come by large vehicle. We had no other choice than going up with our van, and got numerous scratches because of the narrow road and the wild vegetation on basically every side of it (right, left, above). I'd always come back to this wonderful place, but in a small car. :)

fantastic spot and a lovely studio cottage. 30 mins easy walk to St Ives sea front. surrounded by public footpaths and countryside. a great stay in a clean Airbnb. thank you.

Lovely cottage. With easy access to the local beaches, walks, gardens, village store, etc, And amazing weather!

Great stay at Lisa’s cosy cottage

A lovely stay in a great location and a really comfortable cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Mousehole, what a fantastic village. Ben’s place was a perfect location with stunning views at low or high tide. We loved the decor in the house which was so fitting for the location. A special,unique part of Cornwall and certainly a highlight for us. We absolutely loved Cornwall and recommend Ben’s place, it was awesome. Many thanks Chris and Steve, New Zealand

My husband and I had a wonderful three days at Gord’s . The house was quiet, comfortable, well decorated and walkable. It was nice to be able to walk to restaurants and stores. The house is cozy and it felt like home. The beds were super comfy and the shower water gets hot! Nothing better than a hot shower and comfy beds while traveling! The kitchen is very useable and has everything you need and more! Gord is friendly and responsive. His “to do” guide is one of the best one I have seen and it really helped us a lot. We would definitely stay here again!

Julia’s Place was such a wonderful place to stay. David met us and showed us the ropes. We loved the peaceful location, the stunning walks and the accessibility to other parts of the coast. I particularly loved the cows in the paddock next door, the garden area and the separate reading room - great for a moment alone. Thank you for having us to stay Julia and David. We had a fabulous time.

Lovely house in a gorgeous location. Everything was as described and the property made our holiday special (helped also by the sunshine)! Many thanks.

We had our second visit to Forget-me-not Cottage in December and found it just as agreeable as the first. It was very clean and cosy, is located in a quiet square close to the town centre, and is ideally equipped for a self-catering holiday. The hosts provided a nice welcome pack and were very responsive to our requests. This is a really lovely place to stay when visiting Penzance.

From the moment we opened the door we knew it would be a great place for us. Perfectly put together. Very tastefully decorated for the period of the cottage and immaculately presented . It made us feel at home immediately. We stayed for 6 nights. Explored Mousehole and surrounds extensively by car and lots of walking. It is in a great position. Quiet, close to everything including the water. Would thoroughly recommend.

My husband and I had such a wonderful stay at Grey Cottage. The interior was so beautifully and stylishly yet simply designed - the quintessential fisherman’s cottage but updated - with all the charm and atmosphere one would hope for. We loved having coffee in the conservatory in the morning and eating takeaway from Mousehole’s lovely food shops on the nights we were too tired from hiking to eat out. Mary Ann was so helpful and responsive - she went above and beyond to provide, for instance, unscented laundry detergent because of my allergies, and to answer the numerous first - timer questions I had before and during our stay. We felt so taken care of and so lucky to have stayed in her place. Of course we cannot wait to return! Thank you Mary Ann!
