Pet-friendly holiday rentals 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.

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 had a lovely weekend in Kathleen’s beautiful home. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and more. We appreciated all of the additional touches for my baby niece- she loved the books and bath toys! The best part of the house is the stunning views of the coast and St Michael’s Mount- it’s worth staying for alone. Thanks for a lovely stay 🙂

The Balcony Studio was the perfect getaway. It is a beautifully appointed stone cottage with stunning views overlooking the ocean. The cottage is steeped in history and has been beautifully renovated. It is spread over four half levels - you enter a well appointed kitchen, go down to the very large and unique bathroom, up to the bedroom with sitting area, and up again to a small living room and WC. The layout to the bedroom is very clever, with the bed facing the windows, but far enough back to be completely private when the blinds are up and the windows are open. I loved sitting in the chairs overlooking the water. Even with people walking by under the balcony, it feels very private. The location is fabulous - just steps to restaurants, cafes, shops and galleries of St Ives. The walk from the train was maybe 5-6 minutes. I loved my stay and would highly recommend.

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!

Margaret’s place was perfect for our 2 week holiday in Cornwall. Ideally situated very close to St Erth railway station which was perfect for us as we decided to travel without the car and use public transport to get around. The bungalow was spacious, very clean, very well equipped with everything you need for a self catering holiday. The fully enclosed garden with seating, Sun loungers and bbq is a great asset when the weather permits! Margaret is a great host, good communication and quick response. The accommodation is exactly as described in the listing. We travelled via train & bus to St Ives, Penzance, Mousehole, Falmouth, Truro, Padstow and Newquay, all easily accessible from St Erth station. Locally we ate at The Watermill pub which was a 15 minute stroll away, friendly staff and tasty food. Hayle is only a 3 minute rail journey away (or a 20-30 min walk) and has an expanse of beach which is perfect to visit on a hot sunny day. We would definitely choose to stay here again!!

Barbara's house is wonderful. It has a stunning view over Mawgan Porth beach and you can walk down to the beach via the dunes. Sitting on the balcony in the evening enjoying the view is a treat! The house itself is lovely - compact but it has everything you need. Barbara is a very responsive and helpful host. I would very happily stay again!

Great place to stay and was clean and tidy! Responsive and friendly host who helped with recommendations!

We had a lovely time staying at Tina's place. It was exceptionally clean and very homely. It was the perfect place to stay and we just loved our peaceful walks with the dogs in the forest right behind. Tina was easy to get hold of and left not only us some treats but the sweetest care package for our 2 dogs. We would definitely stay at Tina's again.

We really enjoyed staying here as a group of five adults and 1 toddler. Plenty of room for us all and having 2 bathrooms was really great. The cabin is comfy and cosy, with beautiful views of the Cornish countryside. We used the cabin as a base to explore Cornwall as it is located centrally within easy reach of many popular towns. We loved coming back to the cabin in the evening and using the hot tub and waking up to the very friendly alpacas! You do have to drive up a very narrow and steep lane to reach the cabin but we were lucky that the lane is very quiet and so we never met any oncoming traffic. We would absolutely recommend and would love to return one day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Stay in Perranporth! Loved our stay here — spotless, stylish, and super comfy. The location was perfect: peaceful, yet close to the beach and town. The hot tub was a real highlight, especially after long coastal walks. Great hosts — we’ll definitely be back!

The nicest static caravan we’ve ever stayed in! The place was immaculate, our hosts were great on messaging and left us a very helpful book which made everything so easy, even with two boys. The park was really quiet even though it was full, the boys loved the park and the pub was perfect for a quiet pint in the evening. The value for money was unreal, the absolute perfect base for exploring any part of Cornwall

Just want to say a massive thankyou again! We had a lovely time staying at Blue View and the flat had everything we needed. It was very clean, well equipped & the views are to die for!! The pool was heated so I was able to take my 4 month old son in there who loved it! Kirsten & Ben are very friendly and even had the flat ready for us a couple of hours before the usual check in time :D we will definitely be back next year! X

This was such a wonderful place to stay. A beautiful wooden lodge with plenty of space, comfortable furnishings and spectacular verandas. It’s in a beautiful mature garden setting which is idyllic in every way. Private and peaceful yet with easy access to so many walking routes, gorgeous beaches, great cafes and pubs. We only took the car out on one day, everything else we did on foot. The pool and jacuzzi were a welcome bonus too.

Fiona was a fantastic host, loads of info and very friendly. the house is perfect for a family stay and we loved the cream teas left for us. there is tea and coffee and lots of other handy bits. cupboards full of everything could need like pots pans cling film tuppawear... the main bed was very comfy and cot bed provided. the jacuzzi was great but we unfortunately didn't use the pool as we were too busy seeing the sights. the garden is amazing and we felt very at home. We really loved our stay and we would definitely come back and recommend it to our friends and family.

What a find!!! Absolute gem of an Airbnb with an incredibly kind and thoughtful host. The hut was immaculate and clearly designed with the greatest attention to detail, located in beautiful, peaceful surroundings near to some stunning beaches/ places to visit. Had me planning our return before we had even left! Could not recommend more and can't wait to be back 😊

First time "glamping" and visiting Cornwall for me. Absolutely loved it, Claire was really kind and accomodating. The pod was just as advertised, very clean and cozy. Great location, close to everything but still far from crowds. Greatly recommend it.

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!

Peaceful place with a superb hot tub. Highly recommended

Just perfect from start to finish. Will definitely be back

Can't fault this stay in any way. Everything was as described, the hosts were super responsive, helpful and friendly and even went out of their way to surprise us with a very thoughtful gift. The cottage is a delight, very authentically Cornish, comfortable and warm. It was suitably equipped (we didn't need for anything during our stay) and a great place to relax and unwind after days of walking. Porthleven turned out to be a super place to base ourselves with good restaurants, pubs, coffee shops and town activities. Not as "quaint" as Mousehole or Marazion but actually better equipped for a stay and a little more local activity, we preferred it. If we headed back to Porthleven I'd absolutely look to stay at this cottage again. Recommended.

Had a very enjoyable stay. Accommodation had everything we needed, was cosy and looked forward to coming home each evening. It was well located for all the local attractions. Will absolutely visit again if in the area.

Excellent stay peaceful and tranquil Excellent host very private will definitely book to stay again
