    “We’ve stayed at many places in Devon and Cornwall and can honestly say this has been the best house we’ve stayed in by far.”

    We had such a fantastic 4 night stay, 3 generations of family, 20yrs to 80yrs. It is a real home from home, in a quiet cul-de-sac, relaxing and quiet , has all you need, a well equipped kitchen, really comfortable beds, private secure garden for the dog, in a great location within a 10 minute walking distance of the harbour (downhill), only 5 minutes walk to the local pub. Friendly host, quick to respond. We will definitely be back

The property

39 The Shrubberies is a spacious, contemporary, detached abode in charismatic Porthleven coastal village.

Ideal for families and friends seeking a Cornish escape, this well-styled four-bedroom cottage offers accommodation for up to eight guests.

From the porch and entrance hallway - the sitting room boasts a woodburning stove, plush seating with Sky TV on a large flat screen - ideal for spending time with your loved ones on those chillier nights.

The adjacent snug with a sofa and Smart TV makes a little haven for children to play or a reading room.

The kitchen at the rear is contemporary with high gloss units and all the appliances and makes a welcoming social space with a dining table for fun foody gatherings.

The downstairs utility hosts the washing machine and the shower room is perfect for cleaning sandy toes when you have returned from a day at the beach.

Four well-styled bedrooms greet you on the first floor: one with a king-size bed with SMART TV and ensuite shower room, and the other a double bed with SMART TV.

The third has a zip-and-link super-king-size bed to convert into twin beds for extra flexibility, with a SMART TV and a distant sea view.

Bedroom four has single bunks and a SMART TV.

The separate family bathroom gives the option to unwind in a bubble bath.

From the kitchen, sliding doors lead out to the pretty enclosed garden with a patio, lawn, and mature borders, ready for alfresco breakfasts and evening tipples.

Escape for some morning tranquillity to the Garden Room, a delightful place to relax in, with chairs, a small dining table, and a boiling water tap.

For added luxury, the summer house houses a small drinks fridge with Bluetooth connection, including games for children and adults ensuring all entertainment is covered during your stay.

Venture into picturesque Porthleven, with its dainty port and fishing boats, little sandy beach, and fabulous restaurants, cafes, and traditional inns lining the harbour walls.

The catch of the day will be on the menu, plus more international cuisine, as well as pastries and cream teas.

Browse the little galleries and gift shops, and walk the scenic coast path, with seven circular routes.

Nearby Helston is ideal for stocking up on provisions and Flambards Theme Park will keep the kids entertained for hours. Within easy reach, stroll the promenade at Penzance, or for a truly memorable adventure, walk the cobbled causeway at Marazion to iconic St Michael’s Mount.

If the tide is high the ferry boat will get you there, or simply enjoy water sports and rock pooling on the big stretch of sandy beach.

39 The Shrubberies is your perfect slice of Cornish serenity.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

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.
