Excellent stay near Porthcothan. Our family of four really enjoyed it. The house was spotlessly clean and excellently appointed. A great place to spend time inside and out. The owners are super friendly and helpful and the gifts on arrival were very welcome. Thanks!

Lovely stay for my family of 4. Spacious and well kept with all the facilities you could need. Comfy beds, nice garden with view of fields all around. Walking distance to a good beach, short drive to lots more. Next door is Old McDonalds farm if you fancy a drink or can’t be bothered to cook.

We had a wonderful family holiday. The owners were available if needed. Lovely walk to the most beautiful family beach! Country views at every window, truly relaxing and great location to explore Cornwall.

We loved everything about coastal retreat! It’s super clean and new. Well equipped with everything we need for a few days stay – even for longer stays as well! Our kids especially loved playing in the garden and melting marshmallows over the fire. It was our perfect holiday in Cornwall. We would love to come back!
