    “Unfortunately when we arrived there was an extensive air of mustiness.”

    On entering the cottage it seemed ok but when examined closely, it definitely wasn’t clean. The dust and dirt behind the settee was extensive and definitely hadn’t been cleaned for a long time. The bedroom lampshades were full of dust and dirty

The property

Welcome to Peg's, a delightful traditional white fisherman's cottage brimming with character.

Enjoy partial sea views from both floors, where newly refurbished contemporary style meets rustic elegance.

Just a few steps away, you'll find a three-mile stretch of sandy beach, perfect for sun-soaked days and seaside strolls.

A gentle amble brings you to the bustling village harbour, teeming with charming shops, art and craft galleries, and exceptional restaurants and pubs.

The sunroom offers a cozy entrance to the spacious living area.

The open-plan ground floor, with its wood floors, white panelled walls, exposed stone end-wall, and ceiling beams, creates a light and welcoming atmosphere.

Relax in the comfortable sitting room, dine in the attractive dining area, and cook up a storm in the well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen.

Deep-silled cushioned window seats provide the perfect nooks for reading or gazing out at the sea.

Upstairs, you'll find two bright and stylish bedrooms with inviting double and twin beds, dressed in crisp white linen and quirky jewel-coloured throws.

The bathroom features a three-quarter bath and a powerful shower-head for a refreshing experience.

Step outside to the slate-paved planted patio, a sheltered haven ideal for lazy breakfasts, alfresco dining, and sunbathing.

Peg's is also the perfect bolt-hole for a snug winter hideaway or a romantic, relaxing escape.

Located in Porthleven, near the ancient market town of Helston, this charming village is a blend of working community and great holiday destination.

Enjoy the local restaurants and soak in the seaside air.

For those who love coastal walks, the south-west coastal footpath is right on your doorstep, leading to Lands End in the west and The Lizard in the south.

Within easy driving distance, explore the historic port of Penzance and the stunning beaches at Porthcurno, Praa Sands, and Marazion, all nestled in Mounts Bay.

These are must-do day trips for any seaside holiday.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

PORTHLEVEN

Helston 3 miles; Penzance 10 miles; Hayle 11 miles; St. Ives 17 miles; Falmouth 17.5 miles.

Porthleven is one of south west Cornwall’s hidden, coastal gems, located near Helston, famous for it's annual Flora Dance Festival. Situated between Lizard Point and Land’s End, Porthleven retains the feel of a traditional Cornish fishing village, enjoying uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean and the beautiful Cornish coastline. The iconic clock tower sits on the harbour entrance and the pubs, shops, cafés and restaurants cluster around the historic picturesque inner harbour, where there is plenty of boating and marine activity. With a warren of streets lined with classic Cornish, granite cottages, an extensive beach manned with lifeguards, the chance for alfresco dining in one of a number of well reviewed restaurants, and crabbing off the harbour, there are plenty of activities for the whole family to enjoy, all year round. Porthleven is building a reputation for eating out with a popular food festival established in the spring. Out of season, Porthleven has one of the best surf breaks in the country where you can sit down and get lost for hours watching the energetic surfers riding the waves. There are some fabulous hidden coves along this stretch of coastline, including Praa Sands, Poldhu Cove, and Rinsey, a magical setting for the more energetic. You may have even seen pictures of Porthleven on television, being one of the best spots in the UK for storm watching, with the crashing winter waves often being used as the backdrop to weather forecasts. Walkers will enjoy the South West Coast Path, adventuring west past Rinsey Head with spectacular views, or south across Loe Bar to Penrose Estate with it's National Trust cafe, and on to Gunwalloe Church Cove. Take a trip to the Isles of Scilly by boat or plane and marvel at the display of sub-tropical gardens at the stunning Tresco Abbey. The Eden Project near St. Austell offers an interesting day out. Porthleven is the ideal base for discovering the delights of west Cornwall and the Lizard Peninsula.
