Had a lovely short break and wish we had booked longer. Lovely, clean and comfortable apartment, friendly and accommodating hosts. Everything you need, including the beach, is in easy reach. Milk and basic food items were provided which was appreciated. Will definitely return.

Difficult access down slope.

The Haven is exactly what it's name suggests. Peaceful, and absolutely gorgeous. Pictures are spot on - the view is fantastic, and everything in top shape. Judy had left mini bottles of wine and a 'Cornish cream tea' in the fridge, which was really lovely. Portreath is a magical summer holiday destination, small and quaint and very relaxed. It was the perfect place to explore Cornwall from, which is exactly what me and my dad did. My only regret is not spending more time in Portreath! We went for a walk along the beach one evening and up onto the cliffs which have spectacular views, and where you can see wild ponies grazing the heathland. Judy and her husband really leave you to your own devices, which is nice when you are sharing a house. It feels very private, although they are on the floor below, and they rent out the bottom floor as well. This particular airbnb spot is the best one, I think, with gorgeous views from many of the windows and from the deck. Thanks for having us!

Wir haben unsere Ferien in dem Appartement sehr genossen. Bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir freundlich empfangen (Dank an Judy für Shortbread und Wein) und waren sofort angetan von der fantastischen Aussicht. Man kann wunderbar die Bucht von Portreath überblicken und ist auch nur durch einen kurzen Fußweg vom Strand als auch dem Supermarkt und der Bäckerei getrennt. Das Appartement ist schön eingerichtet, es gibt kuschlige Handtücher und die Küche ist komplett ausgestattet mit allen Geräten und Zubehör. Auch der Parkplatz direkt am Haus war prima, alles in allem eine ideale Location für einen Cornwall-Trip.

My husband and sister in law and I had a wonderful 3 days at Judy's apartment. It was perfect, spacious,spotlessly clean and totally comfortable, with excellent views of Portreath bay from the verandah and dining area. Judy provided lots of lovely extras, the wine and yummy biscuits were especially appreciated. We would definitely stay again.

What a comfortable base from which to explore this beautiful part of Cornwall! We were lucky to have outstanding weather and the sunset views from the balcony were breathtaking. Well equipped and comfortable, peaceful and inviting, I would strongly recommend this apartment. Portreath provides for the necessities of life but if you venture further, try Barnecutts (Launceston) for an outstanding pasty. In Portreath, the Atlantic Bar does sell out of fish and chips early in the evening but a very good alternative is just 3 miles further North in Porthtowan. A very convenient location for St Ives, an excellent walk to St Agnes and within easy reach of the South Coast. Or just watch the world go by in Portreath ....

The Haven was just as lovely as described. The apartment is decorated beautifully and cosy. The beds were very comfortable and the views were fantastic. Lots of welcoming details like local scones and red and white wine were provided. And of course, the hosts were extremely nice and helpful even taking care of our luggage transfers we had booked with a transport service. All in all a lovely stay I can only recommend to everyone.

La casa era mejor de lo que habiamos esperado. Era muy comoda, muy limpia y muy bonita...con unas vistas espectaculares. Judy fue muy amable con nosotros. Dejo para nuedtro uso cereales, vino, leche, te, cafe..Hemos pasado una semana genial. Gracias

This place is just as described . We loved stay at Juliets beautiful and conformable place. It has everything that a couple might need to make staying in or preparing to go out stress free., The location is excellent . Close to the beach , a pub , a mini supermarket a bakery and a cafe. The phone signal can be a bit erratic but the internet provided is fast and great to make (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) calls.The neighbourhood is very quite and the view from the window stunning on a clear day.Its a great place to stay and explore beautiful part of Cornwall.

Lovely apartment with sea views and very comfy bed and good shower. We enjoyed the welcome goodies-good shampoo, little bottles of wine, milk, teabags, coffee and cream tea. Judy very welcoming.

Judy was very welcoming and friendly but also respected our own space. The apartment was lovely and had a fantastic view of the beach. The extra touches such as wine and cream tea on arrival really made us feel welcomed. Overall we really enjoyed staying at the Haven with Judy and would do so again, my only criticism would be 10am checkout was a bit early for us.

Un appartement très fonctionnel dans la petite ville de Portreath où l'on mange très bien et où la plage permet de surfer. L'accueil de Judy est très sympathique et elle a la délicate attention de laisser à notre attention un appartement "prêt à l'emploi" : café, thé, lait frais, huile, eau et même petites mignonnettes de vin !

nice space lots of light, outside terrace was big and you could enjoy the view of the sea. small kitchen but decent for a couple of days, great shower pressure. Twin beds only, and the other two apartments were both full, so slightly noisy in the morning. Ample parking, but down a very steep driveway. Short (steep) walk in to town.

Judy was een ontzettend aardige vrouw die ons zelfs een ventilator gaf, omdat het wat warm was. Locatie had een heel mooi uitzicht en was lekker rustig. Zeer schoon en alles wat je nodig had was aanwezig. Absolute aanrader!

We loved the Haven. What an amazing house in an amazing location. Judy and Martin were lovely too, really helpful, friendly people. They were around if you needed to ask something but were never intrusive - they left us an array of goodies in the flat when we arrived, which after a long trip was a delight. So back to the flat - if sleeps two comfortably with two single beds. Nice living room, with a TV and load of DVDs if you want to stay in a watch TV. Personally we were out and about so didn't really make use of it. Kitchen was fine, plates, cutlery, frying pans etc provided. I have to give a special mention to the shower - it is the best shower I have ever been under - super strong water pressure and super hot water in abundance. We loved our stay and would heartily recommend it - We will be returning if we can ever find a free slot!

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Great host, and accommodation is very comfortable. Kitchen and laundry facilities within the annex, and hosts available next door if necessary. Parking very useful and offer of surfboard storage. Slight issue with damp but could have been due to the wet weather. Great value accommodation and would recommend to others. Only short walk to the beach!

This place is owned by very friendly host's. This flat cosy with everything you could need, and is the perfect size for any couple.

We had a great stay in Porthtowan! Lowenna and her family were very welcoming and gave us some good tips for places to visit. Their beach annex was as described; very comfortable and had everything we needed for our short holiday. Porthtowan is a lovely small village with a beautiful beach and some great pubs/bars. It's located perfectly for day trips to St Ives, Falmouth etc. I would totally recommend staying here :)

Great place to stay. Due to weather didn't manage a day on beach. Did do walking though. Welcomed by James. Place had everything we needed. Would recommend it. Thanks. Karen

Excellent place to stay with great hosts. Great location, quiet and peaceful yet handy to beach, restaurants, walking tracks and a short drive to many interesting places if you want to explore. Would be a pleasure to stay there again. Highly recommended.

We had a great time staying in this lovely air bnb. Very close to the beach, from where we had a nice walk along the coast to St Agnes. We're not surfers ourselves but even in late October the beach was busy with surfers, seems a great spot! The air bnb was super clean and provided everything we needed (eg kitchen facilities). Many thanks for this 2 day get away :)

Thank you so much for a lovely stay! Wonderful hosts and accommodation perfect for a weekend break! So close to beach and beach bars great for a surf break we would love to come back :)

A perfect stay with lovely people.

The apartment is in a great location right on Porthtowan beach. We had everything we needed for our stay and then some. With great coastal walks, a lovely sandy beach and pretty good surf at times, there's something for everyone in Porthtowan. Gwith and Anika were very understanding when I had to call to say I'd lost the door key - tip, always use the key drop box - far more understanding than my wife was! I would recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable and scenic beach holiday in the West country. Thanks again for your help guys!

Great location in a peaceful little town, with a balcony overlooking the beach yet in close reach of the larger towns in Cornwall. I found the flat to be very comfortable, with underfloor heating. Just a little useful note, I did not have any mobile phone reception (my provider is Vodafone), and there is no landline in the flat, which at first was fine because the wifi was working well, but on the last day it was working only intermittently and that could prove difficult for those hoping to combine work and holiday. There are plenty of neighbouring wifi hotspots however. The hosts were very quick to answer questions and everything was well detailed in an instruction manual in the flat, which was a nice added touch.

We had such a lovely weekend in the flat in Porthtowan, I couldn't recommend visiting there enough. The flat is cosy and clean and has everything you need to feel at home, we didn't want to leave! There's milk in the fridge when you arrive and everything is well explained. Also must add that the underfloor heating is a great bonus! Perfect getaway for a couple or family, we'll definitely be going back in the summer.

A wonderful place to stay! Fantastic location, flat contains everything you need for a relaxing stay, clean and modern but with homely touches like a well stocked bookshelf and board games. The heated floor was heaven in late Feb and we enjoyed every evening watching the sun go down over the sea from the balcony. Would love to stay again! Highly recommended. Thanks again Anika and Gwith!

This apartment is cozy and pleasant, clean and comfortable It has everything you need for a pleasant stay with books and all equipment for a beach holiday It is above the shops that are close to the beach and you look over their roofs to the beach. This beach has been damaged by the January storms, sand is washed away and there is a lot of rocks The area has plenty coastal walks and sight seeing,handy maps are available with many interesting places to see

We had a really lovely few days at the Seaspray apartment. It's a great location right on the beach. Beautiful sunset on most nights. Enjoyed food and drink at the blue bar all of 1 mins stagger away! Wonderful walks along the coastal paths. Overall had a great time and was sad to leave. Thanks.

We had a wonderful short break in Porthtowan and we owe it to the lovely flat kept by Anika and Gwith. Clean and beautifully decorated, it instantly felt like a home from home. The view out over the beach just topped it all off. It was in the perfect location to go out exploring, but plenty nearby as well; The Beach Cafe had superb burgers and breakfasts, and enjoyed an evening in The Unicorn down the road. I hope to be coming back to Porthtowan very soon, and will look forward to staying in the flat again.

Fantastic stay at Porthtowan! Flat had everything we needed, underfloor heating greeted us on a cold night when we got in and milk in the fridge ready for a cup of tea. Cosy little flat, twin beds on the ground floor, double bed on the mezzanine level. Pubs and shop nearby for food or stock up on supplies. Great view of the beach and sea, couldn't have asked for better, great sight to see in the morning! Lovely time spent with my family :) would definitely recommend and might be looking to book again when other family members come to visit. Thank you.

We had a great time in Cornwall. The flat was everything we could have asked for. It was exactly as it was portrayed in the profile and was actually closer to the beach than we imagined. The flat was very clean and well presented. The bread and champagne were much appreciated and a nice personal touch. I would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone wanting to stay in a great facility as well as a great location for experiencing everything the area provides. The guest information pack was particularly useful. Thank you

Great location with sea view. The information given by Tom and Candice and recommendations of the area were accurate. Was left bread and champagne which was a nice touch. had a lovely time. if you are looking for a place to chill out this is great.

Nice careful landlord Good location good view of sea Enjoyed a lot with my family

Fabulous welcome, fizz, milk and treats awaiting, the apartment is cosy and it the most fantastic location.

We had a great holiday at Tom and Candice's flat! Lovely little kitchen with an awesome nespresso machine! Bread from the little shop down the road is delicious with Cornish butter! The beach is just a trot away and nice cafes, including Blue bar just on the beach. The coastal walks are really good. Tom and Candice communicated very well and quick to respond to any queries etc There's a house manual that tells you all you need to know and the flat is really nice and clean and comfortable. No phone reception for us, but wifi was very good. Great hosts, great spot to chill and unwind. Recommended.

The flat was adequately well presented and enough place for 5/6 people. We were quite satisfied with the kitchen wares and internet service. Good view of the beach as well. Enjoyed our stay as Cornwall's major attractions were well within reach. Thank you Tom and Candice.

A lovely, fresh loaf of bread and a bottle of Prossecco were waiting for us on arrival. The apartment was lovely and looked exactly like the photos. The neighbourhood was welcoming.

We had a wonderful time! Thank you very much, especially for the delicious bread & prosecco and all the other essentials (tea/coffee/salt/sugar). Coming back to such a cute & cosy flat has made this trip extremely enjoyable. It's a beautifully decorated place and felt like home :-). Close proximity to the beach and Blue bar was awesome ;-).

We loved our stay at Ocean Breeze. The apartment was cosy, private parking located close by and location stunning with amazing views of the beach. There were so many thoughtful touches throughout to enhance your stay and guest experience. Mike and Linda even popped by just to make sure we were all ok which we really did not expect and was a lovely gesture. We would definitely recommend Ocean Breeze and hope we can visit again soon!

Staying at Ocean Breeze is a good experience in Porthtowan. Mike decorated the house nicely before we arrived, and we could easily communicate with him all the time. I strongly recommend his house and his kind offer to the future tourists.

Our stay at Mike's place was fantastic- couldn't have asked for a more attentive and helpful host, especially at the short notice with which we booked! Well equipped, amazing view of the ocean, and close by some superb walking trails, pub, village store etc. A perfect relaxing getaway and within easy driving distance to all of Cornwall's attractions. Thanks Mike for the great stay and I look forward to staying at your place again!

We had a great stay at Ocean Breeze. Weather was great and the view from the balcony was stunning. The apartment was left stocked with some coffee, fresh milk and some Cornish cookies alongside a welcoming note. I felt that Mike and Linda made us feel very welcome. Although quite small, the space was adequate for the four of us. Two small kids of 3 and 3 months were more than happy. There were some great kids DVDs of which one was used while we ate breakfast one morning which kept them occupied while we got thing ready for the day. For the money I couldn't fault the accommodation and would happily return. Thanks again for our stay!

We had milk, tea, biscuits, bog roll, pound coins for the electric meter and some other stuff waiting for us on arrival. This was gratefully received. The house worked well and the views never disappointed

Great location , very safe for children, great sunset views from the balcony, very clean. Can't wait to go back.

Ocean breeze is situated in a lovely quiet village overlooking the beach with great views and stunning cliff walks. Ocean Breeze was impeccably clean and had comfy bed and sofas. The kitchen was well equipped with lots of crockery and utensils. There was plenty of space and we loved the spiral staircase leading to the gallery bedroom. We were provided with a complementary parking permit to a car park a 1 min walk away - which is perfect for those driving down. Ocean breeze is extremely close to the village shop, and a number of pubs (The Unicorn is particularly good, offering an amazing Sunday roast and pizzas). Communication with Mike was faultless; he gave us plenty of advice and suggestions of places to visit. We were greeted with a welcoming postcard, ginger biscuits, fruit, tea, coffee and milk. Mike was very responsive to our needs and was at the end of the phone when we needed him. We had a brilliant first trip to Cornwall and would definitely return to Ocean Breeze! Thanks Mike and Linda!

If you're looking for well equipped accommodation in a beautiful location with sea views and beach access on your doorstep this is it. The accommodation has everything you need if you're self-catering, and is also located within walking distance of local amenities. Great walking opportunities with the cliff path and beach outside your front door. The communication with Mike our host was excellent throughout from booking to departure - tea, coffee, and milk on arrival and nothing was too much trouble. We've had a fantastic few days and I would highly recommend Ocean Breeze.

Thank you so much Katrina for letting us stay in your lovely apartment, we really enjoyed it. Thanks for your help whenever needed and for the warm welcome!

We stayed four days in this fabulous location, warm, bright, comfortable, peaceful and quiet. We loved the view from the balcony on the gorgeous, refined gardens and the creek.. "Summer house" is really the ideal place to stay as it is perfectly placed, very central, to explore the area, only 30 min. from St-Ives, 40 min. from Heligan gardens and 36 min. from Trebah gardens .. It is truly a magical place, a piece of heaven, with free farm animals (ducks, peacocks) . Thank you so much Joyce for making our stay just perfect and relaxing ..

Lovely summerhouse in a georgouse location. The summerhouse is the perfect size for everything a couple needs and the view from the balcony is beautiful. It was great fun wandering around the property and looking at all the animals. I loved watching the ducks splash around in the stream while having my breakfast. I would definetly advise the summerhouse to anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

Excellent location. Beautiful scenery. Lots of farm animals to see.

Joyce is a very lovely host and we had a great time in her gorgeous summer house. It is warm and cosy and idyllic. Perfectly placed for beautiful beaches and exploring the area. I will definitely be back!

Kevin's accommodation is exactly as he describes, modern and clean. It had everything we needed, and Kevin was quick to respond to our queries.

Kevin was very responsive to queries in the lead up to our stay and extremely welcoming when we arrived. He showed us where everything was, let us know he was available if we needed anything, then left us to it. Exactly what you want from a host. The apartment was lovely, far better than expected. Everything was finished to a high standard and the self catering facilities allowed us to cook varied meals from scratch withough issue (this is frustratingly often not the case with self catering!) Lovely big bath and shower. Fantastic views from the patio of the Carn Brea monument! Only room for improvement would be WiFi coverage - I could only access this from outside on the patio. We would definitely stay again!

Excellent location full of historical interest. Really nice apartment and Kevin is very pleasant and helpful. Cat lovers will enjoy visits from a friendly grey and white mog. Would definitely stay here again.

Made to feel very welcome. Accurate description of lovely village accommodation in a centrally accessible base for visiting the whole of Cornwall. King Edward Mine Museum of considerable interest nearby.

Good location with easy access to main attractions in the area. The apartment is well equipped and the shower is great (excellent pressure). There are building a couple of houses right in front of the apartments at this time but we did not notice any noise or bother besides a less scenic view.

Beautiful cosy accommodation. Kevin came to see us as soon as we arrived. Very peaceful location and easy access to both east and west coast of cornwall.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Kevin's apartment for a week and a half, and really enjoyed it. The apartment was just the right size for the two of us, it was tastefully designed, and the location was quiet but not too far from our family and friends. It really felt like home, perfect for a longer stay. The internet wasn't quite as fast/reliable as I'd hoped, and we could hear our...enthusiastic neighbors through the walls, but overall it was a great experience and we'd love to come back in the summer.

Kevin was incredibly responsive with all manners of queries leading up to our stay. The property was clean and in very good order. We felt very at home in the property - it was quiet and relaxing. We had a very enjoyable stay.

Amazing location. Nice house.

Take a coffee from 'Blue' up to the hilltop overlooking the ocean: sit on the hilltop seat and soak up the view of the rolling waves; or keep walking.

Comfortable place, clean and close to the beach. The communication with the host was very good and we had all what we needed. I recommend it!

Ideal location, right by the beach. Perfect for dog walking along the cliffs although we didn't know that the beach does not allow dogs. Place was warm and had everything we needed but it was pretty basic for the price (I've stayed in other places that provided much more and with a more personal touch). However we did enjoy our stay, thank you.

Vi hadde en flott uke her i juli 2016. To voksne og tre barn (4, 8 og 10 år). Christine var en kjempeflott vert som sørget for at alt var på plass når vi ankom. God og rask kommunikasjon i forkant. Opplevde også oppholdet som veldig privat. Fikk parkert leiebilen på stedet. Greit utgangspunkt for utflukter med bil til andre steder i Cornwall. Kan trygt anbefale dette stedet for andre som ønsker et skjermet bosted i Cornwall. Tommel opp!

A lovely seaside cottage good for a family getaway. Though we did not meet her personally, Christine is communicative as a host and the property is as described. Tidy and in good shape for a holiday. Porthtowan has enough amenities to feel relaxed but not so many as to feel overrun. Good balance. Truro is not too far for all the big shops you might need. Some gorgeous walks are possible from just two minutes outside the door. Freesat acts up when the weather is bad, but there's not much anyone can do about satellite technology. Parking is great and at the front door. A very pleasant stay!

Nice place with views of the beach.

Driftwood is a clean and well equiped flat with a comfortable upstairs bedroom and a second with bunk beds. The living space is adequate for 4 people. It was quiet during our stay and has a nice view of the beach from the sofa. It was a perfect base for the 4 of us (plus dog) to explore the local area.

Siamo stati accolti molto bene, i gestori sono stati sempre molto disponibili, il luogo è veramente molto bello.

Excellent description in a beautiful place where we felt very welcomed to the extent we were introduced to some locals.

The apartment was amazing, luxurious and comfortable from the inside and a stunning view on the inside. Thank you!

We were a family of 4 adults staying 2 nights and this place was the perfect location to base our trip in Cornwall. Fantastic view, cosy, clean and with many necessities provided. I highly recommend it.

My boyfriend and I stayed for a week and had an absolutely lovely holiday. The apartment was everything we were hoping for and incredibly private. We were able to cook our own meals and settle down in front of the TV to watch movies at the end of a long day on the beach in Portreath. It is a very quiet town which was exactly what we were looking for and has a great little fish and chips shop on the beach. It has great access to the Portreath-Godrevy heritage coast walk as well as wonderful views of the sunset from the lighthouse in Portreath. We will definitely return to the Haven if we plan a trip to Cornwall again!

This is a lovely apartment that is tastefully decorated and well-equipped for guests. The kitchen has everything we needed for cooking dinner, including oil, salt and pepper, and condiments. Judy left us wine and all the fixings for a Cornish cream tea. Portreath is a nice town, and we very much enjoyed our visit. Communication with Judy was convenient and we didn't have any problems whatsoever. Definitely recommend this listing for your holiday!

The property was spacious and very well done. Our hosts had thought of everything in kitting out this place, to the extent that we had a little game to see if they'd forgotten something. They hadn't. The property was on a fantastic spot overlooking the sea. Wish we weren't in a hurry, would have extended our stay.

Great location and hospitality! Very clean! Would love to come back again!
