    “The Penthouse was very clean and had very modern and comfortable furnishings.”

    Kitchen equipment good too. It is a sizable apartment for 4 people with lovely views over the countryside around Helston. It's also in an excellent location, near Porthleven and Penzance, with St Ives not too far either. Helston is a quaint Georgian town, and the apartment is about 3 minutes walk from the Museum of Cornish Life, which is super interesting for adults and children alike.

The property

The Penthouse is a superb first-floor apartment situated in the heart of the market town of Helston, Cornwall.

Beautifully styled with a fusion of contemporary and character style, The Penthouse is a fantastic base for couples and families looking to spend some time in this bustling part of Cornwall.

The light and airy open-plan living space is uplifted by natural light and offers a sociable area for coming together and reflecting on the day's events.

Take over the kitchen space and rustle up a feast using the electric oven and 5-ring gas hob, before gathering at the dining table and toasting to a much-needed escape.

The master bedroom features a double bed and en-suite shower room, whilst the twin room is perfect for children.

Stay local and explore the beauty of Helston, just a short stroll away, where you can find independent shops and local pubs, as well as the restored Helston Railway Station.

Head to the fishing port of Porthleven and take in the views of the bay, enjoy the traditional pubs and tasty seafood restaurants, and browse the intriguing art galleries, gift shops and markets.

Porthleven is also home to a spacious sandy beach, perfect for an afternoon of sunbathing and leisurely strolls when the tide is out.

Venture a little further and you will find the popular sailing town of Falmouth, with a wide selection of restaurants, a bustling harbour and sandy beaches.

Alternatively, take a trip to the cobbled streets of Penzance, home to the historic Jubilee Pool and the iconic promenade.

No matter what you choose to do, a stay at The Penthouse will be one to remember.
