Exceptional Service

Our award-winning Guest Services team will not only help you find your dream holiday but will support you through every step of your stay.

Step through the front door into a light and airy living space, where coastal tones and soft furnishings immediately create a sense of calm. Large windows allow natural light to pour in, while plush sofas and a cosy armchair make it the perfect spot to curl up with a book, gather for family games, or simply watch the changing sky over the village rooftops. Nautical touches and carefully chosen décor add to the cottage’s seaside charm.

The kitchen blends modern functionality with a homely feel. Fully equipped with everything you need - from oven and hob to dishwasher, coffee machine and plenty of workspace - it makes preparing meals a pleasure. The adjoining dining table seats six comfortably, ideal for relaxed breakfasts before the beach, leisurely evening suppers, or celebratory family feasts.

Three beautifully styled bedrooms ensure comfort for all. Two spacious doubles are dressed in crisp linens and calming coastal hues, with thoughtful touches like bedside lamps and ample storage. A third, slightly smaller double is perfect for younger guests or solo travellers, offering the same snug charm and restful design. Each room has been created with relaxation in mind, offering quiet retreats at the end of a day by the sea.

Two bathrooms make group stays easy and indulgent. The family bathroom features a deep bath for long soaks, while the master en-suite offers a modern walk-in shower. Soft towels and contemporary fittings complete the sense of boutique comfort.

Step outside to a private rear courtyard, fully enclosed and sheltered, where you can enjoy morning coffee, lazy afternoon lunches or sundowners as the light fades. Head up two flights of stairs to make the most of the views that stretch across Portreath Beach to Gull Rock and the Pepperpot, reminding you just how close you are to the sea. Whether it’s al fresco dining, quiet moments of reflection, or watching children play in the fresh air, this outdoor space is a natural extension of the cottage’s welcoming interiors.

You will be given access to the key box for a flexible check-in.

Location

The neighbourhood

Set in the heart of Portreath, this retreat enjoys an enviable position just a short stroll from the golden sands and rolling surf of one of Cornwall’s most welcoming beaches. From the doorstep, you can see the iconic Pepperpot and Gull Rock, reminders of the village’s maritime heritage and a constant backdrop to daily life by the sea. Only 150 metres away lies the beach itself - a favourite for swimmers, surfers, paddleboarders and families alike. At low tide, children can explore rock pools and sheltered coves, while long shoreline walks are the perfect start or end to the day.

The village of Portreath offers everything you need within walking distance: a well-stocked bakery, local shops, cosy cafés and traditional pubs serving hearty Cornish fare. The South West Coast Path passes directly through, opening up dramatic cliff-top trails in both directions. Head west for sweeping views towards Porthtowan and St Agnes, or east to discover quieter stretches leading to Gwithian and Godrevy Lighthouse. Just inland, Tehidy Country Park provides 250 acres of woodland, lakes and trails, ideal for cycling, picnics and peaceful wildlife walks.
