Description

This jaw-dropping property in Porthleven promises a truly unique getaway.  If it’s a family coastal self-catering escape you crave then you can’t get much closer to the elements than Ocean View. With panoramic sea views, this is the perfect sand-between-toes retreat. The aptly named cottage really does have breathtaking views that have to be seen to be believed and you can listen to the gulls overhead and boats lazily sailing past in summer months and in winter you can enjoy the dramatic waves crashing from the warmth of this cosy coastal cottage.  

Porthleven exudes Cornish charm and tradition.  Set in the middle of a huge sweeping bay, the beach at Porthleven is ideal for a relaxing family holiday and has arguably the most impressive harbour in Cornwall.  Construction commenced during Napoleonic times and some sources state that it was built with the aid of French prisoners of war. Small fishing boats land their daily catch in Porthleven, much of which is sold in Porthleven cafes and restaurants and the award winning Quayside fishmongers.  Enjoy day trips to Lands End, Flambards and the Cornish Seal Sanctuary and return home to your very own slice of Cornish heaven.

Reviews

Ocean View cannot be faulted . This was our third return visit and we hope to make many more . The location and views from every room and patio are exceptional .The cottage is extremely well equipped and comfortable the owners have taken trouble to ensure Ocean view really does feel like a welcoming home from home .

Mr C,

Waking up to the views out of the bedroom window each morning is pretty special. It was very odd coming home and not being able to hear the breaking of the waves. This is our second time to Ocean View and we hope to come again, as do our dogs who very much enjoyed their holiday. Porthleven is excellent with lots of lovely walks on the doorstep. Pretty much everywhere is dog friendly.

Mr H,

Great location especially for dog owners, with easy access to the coastal walk. Fabulous views of the sea from 2 bedrooms and the living room. 15 mins walk from Porthleven, which has good pubs and a local brewery.

Mr S,

The master bedroom with the view was fantastic, however the second bedroom was a little on the small side and lacked in storage space. The outside patio needed to be smartened up and cushions for sunloungers supplied. The steps down to the grassed area were difficult to negotiate as trees from next door had grown over partially blocking the steps down. The grassed area had an old broken sunlounger which need to be disposed of and this area made more usuable as it’s more sheltered from the wind.

Mrs Lisa J,

Sea view was amazing. Porthleven a lovely Cornish village with shops and pubs/ cafes. Good base to explore other places in that area. Lovely house for us 4 adults.

Mrs Jennifer P,

The accommodation was extremely well equipped. Excellent quality bedding and towels. It was like the property was lived in and loved.

Ms Donna M,

Be proud of yourselves we had the best holiday thank you we are booking again

Mr Thomas M,

Location

Set on the west coast of the spectacular Lizard Peninsula, the little harbour town of Porthleven is the quintessential Cornish fishing port. Centred around the harbour, it boasts an array of cafés, restaurants and galleries and exudes a chilled, relaxed atmosphere. Porthleven is the most southerly working port in the UK, with fishing boats operating out of the harbour. This makes the town a great spot to enjoy some delicious seafood, straight from the fishing boats to the restaurants, it couldn’t be fresher!

Porthleven beach can be accessed from the town itself and provides a long expanse of sand which is separated into segments by several rocky outcrops. While away the glorious summer days relaxing on the beach with a locally made ice cream in hand!

Situated part way along a huge sweeping bay, it faces the Atlantic Ocean and is often on the receiving end of some mighty winter storms! A fabulous destination for a winter break; marvel at the awe-inspiring waves pounding the harbour walls from the cosy safety of the local pub!

The surrounding area doesn’t disappoint either; located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the views from every cove or clifftop are picture-perfect. Travel north-west and you’ll reach Marazion, home of St Michael’s Mount – an absolute ‘must’. South takes you to the tip of the Lizard Peninsula, Lizard Point, one of Cornwall’s most iconic spots.

You won’t tire of the walks and stunning scenery, but if you fancy a day out, try the Seal Sanctuary, Flambards or Trebah Gardens. Or, go a little further afield and you can explore Penzance, Land’s End and St Ives.
