We had a lovely time here. The views from the windows were stunning. Living areas were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. Amazing to be able to just walk out on to the beach!

We got engaged in this beautiful place! Janet's Bothy truly is stunning, the views, the peace, the comfort. We could not have asked for a better place. We will be returning - thank you so much!
Home in Gorran Haven
4.9 out of 5 average rating, 101 reviewsPenlee Cottage - holiday home close to beach
We would definitely recommend staying at Penlee cottage. You have a shared drive with the owner on site, and your own private cotttage and terrace area. It’s so peaceful here but still has places to eat and drink within walking distance or a short drive away. The welcome pack was very informative. We did the coastal walk to mevagissey which was lovely. Gorran Haven is not overrun with tourists but is a good central point to visit lots of tourist hotspots. During our stay we also visited lands end, the Minack theatre, mousehole and the Eden project all in one day! We also had a dip in the sea, just a very short walk from Penlee cottage which was an added bonus. The cottage has an additional shower room downstairs which was ideal for washing the sand off without trialing it upstairs to the bathroom. Steve is a lovely man with a great sense of humour. He is a perfect host as he is there if you need anything, but also lets you get on with your holiday, privately. Highly recommended!

Lovely situation and great spacious accomodation for 6 of us. House was beautifully furnished, clean and well equipped. We had a lovely boat trip around Looe Island. Fabulous walks from Looe along the coast, both east and west and river valley.
Home in St ives Cornwall
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 105 reviewsBeautiful cosy cottage
We stayed as a group of 6 adults with our dog and had plenty of space, the house was spotless clean, comfy beds, plenty of glasses, cutlery, plates etc. Location is perfect, literally a 1 minute walk into the centre of St Ives, but tucked away down a quiet street. There is space for one small car down a very narrow lane behind the property, but there are some car parks nearby with plenty of spaces for other/larger cars. Julie was very responsive and gave us lots of information ready for our arrival. One of, if not the best airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in!

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 159 reviewsLuxury 5BR Beach House with spectacular sea views
Our family stayed here to celebrate a special birthday and we couldn't have had a better time. Emma's place lived up to expectations and more, it was large, clean and the furnishings were beautiful and tasteful. We loved the kitchen/diner/living room layout, the open plan design meant we could all be together even when someone was cooking. The place was lovely and the kitchen area so big that we decided to stay in each night, we'd cook and then sit at the big table to to have a few drinks and play games. We also loved that we could have a beautiful coastal walk to Widemouth Bay and Bude. Emma stayed in touch with me before, during and after our stay to check that everything was okay.

We had a lovely stay at Pebbles cottage. It’s the second time we’ve stayed here and love how well positioned it is within the centre of St Ives making everything easily accessible from beaches to restaurants, the harbour to galleries /studios. It’s a perfect cottage for a small family, well equipped with the huge bonus of parking (garage) and a lovely balcony. My wife, 2 little girls and I love it and will hopefully be back next year for a third stay.

Only downside is that there isn't much to do on the caravan park for older kids/teens. Entertainment is very much aimed at younger children until around 10pm which is probably too late for pre-teens. We paid £38 for the week to use the pools however the boiler at the indoor pool was broken so the pool was cold and the sauna and steam room were out of use, however this is strictly down to the park and not a reflection of Nick at all. The caravan is beautiful, exactly as described and includes everything you could need, very clean and great communication from Nick including very clear instructions to locate his caravan. Overall we enjoyed our stay visiting local beaches and I would recommend Cornish Premier Pasties for a traditional cornish pasty, about 10 mins drive away!

Great house for a group trip. We enjoyed the hot tub and the games room a lot! Big dining room table and living room which is good for socialising/games etc. Nice and spacious. Good location near to Crantock beach and a short drive to Newquay.

Home in Carbis Bay
5 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviewsChy An Eglos - heated pool/hot tub
This property was absolutely stunning. We were delighted as soon as we checked in. High end kitchen appliances. Quality modern furniture. The outside space was incredible. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless and the bed linen extremely high quality. I would highly recommend this property. It’s better than the photos and we are now planning to book it again. This is a luxury property but well worth the price. Lots of space and easily accommodated our party of 8. Can’t fault one thing

Lovely large house in a beautiful peaceful setting. Amazing views. Does need a little TLC. However great base to visit surrounding area. Trevose Head Lighthouse was especially beautiful with stunning cliff side walks. Thank you William we all loved our visit.

stayed for 4nights with our dog as well. the caravan was great, but it was the location that made it for us. the beach was outstanding. Molly our dog just loved charging around the huge dog friendly area. It was nice to come back to and sit outside with a glass of wine despite a bit of dodgy wheather. The caravan was spacious and very well equipt, alltogether a very nice break.

Such an amazing place in the perfect location. Having been to gwithian 2 other times, this is definitely the best accommodation we have stayed in. The chalet is well equipped and the heated outdoor shower was a real bonus after coming back from a surf. Will definitely be back.
Home in St Ives
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 85 reviewsThe Balcony Studio. Landmark St. Ives property
Beautiful unique house right in the heart of St. Ives. Fantastic recommendations from walks to nights out. Everything close by and walkable. Wonderful views morning, noon and night…in sunshine and especially in storms. Spent five days exploring the area and many an afternoon relaxing, taking in the harbour beach through the big bedroom window. With a seal or two for company. There’s a history well preserved and uniquely presented in the balcony studio. A connection with past, while made modern, that allowed the light, that artists love, to fill our small holiday with something a little special and very memorable.

Gareth’s place was perfect for a long weekend in Falmouth - great spot for walking into town or driving further afield. Gareth left easy, clear instructions & helpful recommendations. The studio was a really lovely space, very comfortable & clean. Slept like a log! Definitely going back : )
Home in Porthtowan, Cornwall
4.94 out of 5 average rating, 67 reviewsBright & cosy home by the beach with lovely views
Completely loved Jennifer's cottage in Porthtowan. Cosy, warm and bright with fantastic views. Even on a stormy day was a pleasure to sit and watch the rain thundering down! Terrace and outside shower an added bonus for when the sun emerged. Comfy beds and a corner sofa to sink into....and the media set up in the living room was spectacular!
