Vacation rentals in Porthcothan

Had the most amazing week at Kelly’s place. 6 of us stayed with plenty of room. Perfect location and few minutes walk into town, lots of fabulous choices for food and drink. Plus some great shops. 4 beaches to choose from, all a short walk from the property. St Ives has everything you can ask for from a holiday location. We all learnt to surf, ( put it on your bucket list) and had a wonderful evening at the Minack Theatre a short drive away. Plus Land’s end and the Eden Project all within easy reach. All in all a perfect place to stay. As for our host Kelly, she was brilliant, lots of helpful hints and recommendations. Got back to us very quickly when we had anything to ask and a very clean property. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone coming to St Ives

Had a fabulous stay with an age range between 15 and 80 which is definitely difficult to please! The younger group Loved the gym and the pool on site and we visited lots of places in the local area including some great costal path walks.

The house is in a fantastic location, both within the holiday complex it’s set in and where it’s placed in Cornwall, so much to do on the doorstep, with easy access to both the north and south coasts. The house is very clean, has instant hot water and well laid out with two bedrooms downstairs and two upstairs. The living room upstairs with the table football is a great addition to the kitchen/dinner/sofas downstairs. The balcony with a hot tub is great too. The house is very quiet and the position of the house makes it very private. The use of the indoor pool and tennis courts were a great bonus. The house could feel more homely with more artwork on the walls and nicer furniture (it’s a bit of a mishmash of charity shop stuff that doesn’t go together), but this is a minor point compared to the real positives mentioned above. We had a brilliant stay and would highly recommend it. Melanie is a great host and very responsive.

Exceptionally well equipped and furnished annexe, comfortable bed and a great shower. Busy area, traffic-wise, yet quiet and peaceful inside. Countryside on the doorstep, paths leading to lovely country are very close. Mary and Steve are discreet, good at communicating. Definitely recommended!

What a beautifully decorated and furnished little cottage. Modern amenities inside an old building. Felt cosy with rugs, carpets and curtains, pillows and plaid covers. Warm heating, plenty of hot water for showers and washing up. Kitchen fully equipped. Warm little touches to welcome us with tea bags and fresh milk in the fridge. Christmas decorations made it extra special. TV had plenty of channels to choose from. Comfortable sofas and kitchen chairs. Everything was really great. Can't beat the location at the end of the harbour, with view of the sea and coastline. Wow!

Alice hospitality was absolutely amazing! She is so incredibly lovely and sweet. She made our Cornish experience perfect. Alice even went above and beyond to do everything for us (e.g. my steamer broke and we were about to attend my brothers wedding) - she didn’t hesitate at all and made sure I could borrow hers. To the Airbnb itself: It is perfect! As my husband and I are very particular about our vacation accommodations, we have very high standards and we can with 100% say: this is the best Airbnb in Cornwall 🫶🏼 Extremely clean, private, and just that nice “homey” feel! We would book it over and over again. This will forever be our spot for future Cornwall visits. All the best to Alice and her family! Greetings from Germany, Fabian, Kim & baby Emma

We stayed for 3 nights- the cottage is compact and really well thought through with fun bathroom set up including a really nice tub in the room, and a TV both upstairs and in the living room. Melanie was very responsive, asked if we wanted milk in the fridge, gave clear instructions about accessing the property and provided useful recommendations for breakfast. The cottage is really central in Padstow so you can walk everywhere. There is a loading bay directly outside to unload cases and there is parking in council run car parks in east walking distance (we used Link Road car park which you can pay for parking for a week at a time) which made things easy!

This place made for a great base and was good value; we were on a budget and it met all our needs. Beds were comfy and it never felt crowded with 7 of us staying. We could always get enough hot water and bedding and towels were clean. We never heard any noise outside or through walls. Sandra was very helpful and responsive and it was a lovely touch to arrive to milk, biscuits, tea and coffee.

We were so grateful for such a warm and welcoming stay at the cottage, having just landed back in London from LA and wanting a last minute, restful place to stay for our remaining few days off before heading back home. Full of amenities, everything was easy to use and find and we couldn’t fault the stay. The cottage was easy enough to find even in the dark and the surrounds are peaceful with great views. We made use of the Coast Path and walked through Crackington Haven and over to High Cliff. We just love the stunning scenery of Cornwall. Access to other more famous places such as Bude, Tintagel and Clovelly over the border was great and easy. We’d happily stay again and recommend this spot to anyone.
