Please note: There are 3 steps in the garden and there is access from the rear garden leading to the coastal path and beach (via steps). . Situated directly on the South West Cornish Coastal Path, just yards from the steps leading directly on to Porthallow beach, this traditionally-built, white-painted stone and cob former fisherman’s cottage has an enviable location. With low beams, wood panel walls, character and many original features, it sits at the end of a row of three, right above the quiet beach Porthallow. The cottage provides a comfortable base for guests with the added touch of French doors in the double bedroom opening onto a balcony with sea views. It’s in an ideal spot for exploring the beautiful Lizard Peninsula or for enjoying walking and scuba diving. It is also a wildlife and bird watcher’s paradise. Art lovers and garden enthusiasts will enjoy the numerous art galleries including the Tate St Ives and the sub tropical gardens including Trebah, Treliske and Durgan. The perfect base for visiting the many different areas of west and south Cornwall, from the rugged surf coastline of the north coast to the tranquil sailing waters of the south coast. Or simply relax on the property’s roof terrace with its glass balcony overlooking the sea and beach below. The area is perfect for beach lovers as the Lizard Peninsula boasts numerous sandy coves, quaint picturesque harbours and fishing villages to explore. The historic towns on Helston, famous for its Flora Day, and Marazion with St Michael’s Mount are set on its small island. The busy maritime port and harbour at Falmouth with The National Maritime Museum and Pendennis Castle is worth a visit. This sleepy, quiet spot gives guests easy access to so many attractions. Shop 1½ miles and pub 300 yards.

Had a lovely short break.
Had a lovely short break. The cottage is in an idyllic position by the sea. Although we knew that there were low ceilings you do need to be careful. It would also be useful to know that you could park temporarily at the end of the alleyway to unload as a bit difficult carrying bags up the steps. These are just helpful observations as the cottage was gorgeous - the pub not open so we hope to return to enjoy the food that other guests recommend in the visitors book.

A lovely fisherman's cottage, delightful view overlooking the sea and the cove and brilliant position above the beach with immediate access to the coastal path. We were always pleased to return to the totally unspoilt village of Porthallow and our very cosy cottage at the end of an exhausting day exploring the picturesque Lizard Peninsula.

A really great place to stay for a holiday by the beach.
A really great place to stay for a holiday by the beach. Beautiful views and wonderful walks. The cottage is in a great spot if like a quiet place with a pub being the only facility. The garden is pretty and well maintained and the house had all we needed for a family holiday. A tumble dryer would be an asset as it proved quite tricky to dry beach towels Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Beautiful cottage with authentic fixtures and log fire 🔥😁 well equipped kitchen with everythin
Beautiful cottage with authentic fixtures and log fire 🔥😁 well equipped kitchen with everything you could ever need. Very clean and well thought out, we loved the outside balcony area, this was especially loved by our Golden Retriever who liked to lay on the shelf and people watch the beach! As the cottage Is circa 450 years old it does seem a little “spooky” at times, but that just added to the quirkiness of the place!

Beautiful cottage in a lovely location.
Beautiful cottage in a lovely location. Very well equipped. The dog and children loved it. Being able to step down to the dog-friendly beach (shingle but that's ok!) was great. We all had a comfortable stay. We enjoyed lunch at the Fat Apples, evening meals at the Three Tuns and touring the coast. I would recommend. The best thing about it was the views from the balcony. Really beautiful.

Lovely cottage in a nice fishing hamlet.
Lovely cottage in a nice fishing hamlet. We booked as it was a short stroll to the highly-rated Five Pilchards pub, but this was closed awaiting new owners. A makeshift pub in the village hall just wasn't the same. The nearest shops and other pubs are a 10 minute drive. Great cottage in a nice location for exploring the Lizard.
