Introducing Porth Cottage- a property that is packed with Cornish charm and is estimated to be over 300 years old. As you walk in through the traditional cottage doorway into the living room, you’ll notice the sea themed decor and gorgeous wooden beams. Guests can sink into the comfy sofas in the main living room with underfloor heating, or continue into the den, to snuggle in the armchair by the electric log effect fireplace.
Porth Cottage sleeps up to 4 guests in two sea and beach themed bedrooms- a double and twin room, both with chunky wood furniture and pitched ceilings. A family bathroom with gray retro tiling offers shower, toilet, hand basin, and heated towel rail.
Meals can be taken around a farmhouse table, or outside in the courtyard garden fringed by Cornish palms and shrubbery. The cottage kitchen boasts all modern appliances such as electric stovetop and oven, microwave, kettle, toaster and refrigerator/freezer. Porth Cottage conveniently has a washer and dryer located in the utility room, fantastic for cleaning down after a day at the beach. A second toilet can be found located on the ground floor.
Porth Beach is only a two-minute walk from the property- it offers a fantastic beach for swimming, and easy access to the Cornish Coastal Footpath. The Mermaid Pub is nestled at the back of the beach, as well as Estrella Morada tapas bar. The cottage has a large parking space, which can accommodate two cars. Porth is a perfect location for day trips into the center of Newquay, the surfing capital of the UK, or for venturing further up the coast to visit the foodie heart of Cornwall- Padstow.
The property is just a short distance from Newquay Airport in Cornwall, which now offers direct flights to Southend, Gatwick, Manchester and more - making weekend or short breaks to Cornwall even easier.
Whether you are looking for a family week in the Cornish sunshine, or a storm watching weekend away in the Winter, Porth Cottage provides a perfect base and tranquil retreat. Its quintessential Cornish decor conveys coziness, charm and a rustic comfort you’ll fall in love with. The fully enclosed courtyard is ideal for visiting with one well-behaved dog (for a small fee), it’s just asked that they are kept downstairs and off the furniture.
