Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Porthleven

Wow - what an amazing place to stay! This is probably the most memorable AirBnB I have stayed in so far. You are right on the edge of the seafront and by the harbour, with the double aspect living room enabling you to see both - the sea views are just stunning. Margaret was a really friendly and communicative host, and the parking space is good. I would heartily recommend this as a great place to stay; it is just so special being able to look out and see the sea from bed, and to hear the waves lapping at the shore as you go to sleep or make your cup of tea in the morning.

Lovely house in quiet square with a pub on the corner! Big kitchen, not that we cooked much as so many great places to eat! We had such a lovely time we extended our stay - twice! Mark was great with dealing with all our questions & requests. Great location, meaning you can walk round town no problem. But having parking permit real bonus, although don't forgot to display as we got a ticket! Also great base for exploring - St Ives, Lands End, Sennen Cove & Newlyn have great Fish 'n' Chips. Eden project is only just over an hour away depending on traffic. We walked across to St Michael's Mount & got a little boat back which was fun. So much to do! All the locals were very friendly and offered recommendations. Will be back as couldn't do everything in a week!

We had a perfect stay at the Little Barn. The photos just don’t do the accommodation justice! Everything was perfect. The views, the comfiest bed, beautiful bath, the outdoor space - it was all lovely. Jon & Vic were great hosts and super helpful. We managed to see a lot of Cornwall in our four days and found the barn was well located for trips to Padstow, Mawgan Porth, Carbis Bay & St Ives, Port Isaac and Fowey. The recommendations book in the Barn gave us lots of ideas for restaurants, pubs and bakeries. Thank you for a lovely stay - we would love to return!

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

An amazing find with a beautiful view of the sea, even from bed! Was super relaxing waking up with that view! We did wear sleep masks as it can get super bright but worth it for the views 🥰🥰 Everything we needed was available, and although no garden for doggos, there is plenty of areas for them to go out along the road, and near coastal path! Bed was SUPER comfy and the shower was amazing! Melinda was super helpful if we had a question and was so kind!

Deborah & Martin's property is every bit as good as the listing promises-it is well designed, beautifully appointed and immaculately maintained throughout. The surroundings are entirely peaceful yet accessible (we saw buzzards, bunnies and bats) and the kitchen is a particular stand out for those of us who like to prepare our own meals on holiday, being both spacious and fully equipped with quality tableware and equipment. Deborah was responsive and attentive from the time of booking to the end of the stay but left us to our own devices. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely time at Linda’s cottage. Location is great easy walking to the main beach area with all the cafes. St Ives is pretty hilly so definitely earned a sundowner at John’s (head left down the street you can’t miss it). PLEASE take note of Linda’s instructions for drop off The Digey gets very thin we saw multiple cars get stuck at our front door and have to back out. Easier walk back from the car park it via the steps down by the beach. We had a great time both in St Ives and further afield. Very busy this time of year

Great host who provided lots of local knowledge. The property was amazing with great views and very relaxing. Just what we needed.

We had a lovely stay at The Old Cellars. The property was easy to find, even though it might seem a bit tricky at first. Inside, it was both spacious and cosy – just right for a few relaxing days away. The location is fantastic – right in the heart of the village and only a minute’s walk from the beach, local shop, and pub. Parking wasn’t far at all and didn’t cause any problems. We enjoyed a few scenic walks in both directions from the village – again, the location couldn’t have been better. A special touch was the Friday evening shanty singing at the pub opposite the bedroom window. It really added to the charm and atmosphere of the place. It was lovely to hear and made our stay even more memorable.

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 😊😊

Really great communication, the place has excellent views and the location is perfect. Thank you for letting us stay also with our puppy.

Chris is a wonderful, kind person who genuinely wants her guests to feel at home on their trip. The apartment had literally everything. Perfectly equipped, lovely furnishings and perfectly clean. Mostly though, it was the personal touches that would make me return and recommend her Airbnb. The welcome note on her door for me. Everything I could possibly need in the kitchen so i didn’t need to rush out to find a shop. I absolutely loved my stay and I will return in the future. Thank you for everything Chris. Lorraine x

We had such a fantastic time at this Air BnB. Mary is a wonderful host and so helpful and friendly during our stay. The location is fabulous, within walking distance to Penzance, Newlyn and Mousehole (scenic walks too!) The place itself is beautifully decorated and clean not to forget the views are wonderful! We very much enjoyed our morning tea watching the boats across the water. The bed is super comfortable and all amenities are as described if not better. We will definitely be returning! What a gem of a place and the loveliest host!

Sarah has been an excellent host in every way. The boathouse itself is beautiful and extremely quiet being left in total peace. Our dog loved it and felt like he was at home! The drive through the narrow roads to get to the secluded location is worth it!

Jeremy and Rachel's places is a great place to stay. a beautiful area to relax. Jeremy was very knowledgeable and had great recommendations on places to visit and see

Our second stay at this lovely attic apartment. Very comfortable with lovely views of Newlyn harbour: we love watching the fishing boats coming and going. In great location for Newlyn Art School, and shops/ restaurants. Celia very helpful and responsive including to odd queries! Lots of steps and low ceilings, but perfect for us

lovely setting with a gorgeous airbnb! perfect for a group of friends celebrating 🙌 the hot tub and sauna were a perfect touch for a coastal location. We could walk to the sea and there were so many fun activities that Three Mile Beach helped us organise. 10/10 would recommend!

We were so impressed with all the staff who were so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and they responded to everything really quickly. The property (Strawberry Fields) was beautiful and furnished in an original and tasteful way. Everything was considered. We had all we needed. The hot tub was well used by us all. Even though we were surrounded by other properties it still felt completely private. The location was excellent being so close to the beach. We all had an amazing holiday (including the dog) and felt that we had a week of real luxury.

I write on a personal note as well (to show how amazing the hosts were). The night after we arrived my parents’ dog, Mollie went missing. Kaye and Lindsey pulled out all the stops to help search for her. Sadly the day before we left, the dog was found but it wasn’t a good outcome. But they’d joined in the search intensely all week, organising local people to come help, a farmer to help with cutting back vegetation, searching at various hours of the day in an effort to find Mollie. They really were brilliant.

We can't recommend Lindsey and Kaye's place enough! Beautiful surroundings in peace and quiet, perfect for our dog to run around and enjoy the land. The hot tub was used every evening and was a real treat after a long day of walking, it was also tucked away and private which made it more relaxing and enjoyable (not all hot tubs in Airbnb's are!). The comfty bed, massive rain shower, stunning kitchen/lounge area were all incredible, but having the views, open space,, and all the little touches that Lindsey and Kaye have added are what make this stay special. Lindsey showed us around and was always on hand to chat and recommend things/give helpful advice, and Kaye was kind enough to show us how the pizza oven works and make sure we were okay! As I said, I can't recommend this place enough, especially if you have a dog (ours loved playing with their beautiful dog, Dodger). The pictures don't do it justice! Quick recommendations: Praa Sands, Porthcurno Beach & Minack Theatre - must see!

fabulous location, great accommodation, spotlessly clean and the best welcome basket weeve ever had!

Extremely well equipped, welcoming, super clean, plenty of instructions and information about the house and area. Comfortable beds, tastefully decorated, super garden, plenty of parking, great hot tub, acres of storage, what wasn’t to like!

This is a beautiful, clean and well located property. The view of the harbor each morning was spectacular and it was very convenient to all Falmouth activities. Sandra was very communicative before and during the stay and gave great recommendations for local spots to dine. We thoroughly enjoyed our family’s stay and hope to have the opportunity to return.
