This family apartment on the Cornish coast is the perfect place to switch off and recharge. Spend your days building sandcastles on the beach, or soaking up the sea air on an exhilarating coastal walk, rounded off with a hearty meal in one of Porthleven’s cosy pubs. The property sleeps five guests and two pups – ideal for families and groups of friends – and has a sociable layout and choice of indoor and outdoor dining areas.
A small flight of steps lead to the ground-floor apartment, which is decorated in a contemporary style and is full of home comforts to make your stay as relaxing as possible. The lounge/kitchen/diner boasts fabulous sea views and is a lovely spot to socialise or enjoy some quiet time with a good book and your hounds curled at your feet. Gather around the dining table for memorable mealtimes, followed by film nights on the sumptuous sofas. The property has three bedrooms: a king-size with an en-suite shower room, a twin that can be made up as a super-king-size on request, and a single. There is also a family bathroom. French doors lead onto the south-facing patio, where the woofers can doze in the sunshine and you can dine alfresco whilst taking in the spectacular scenery.
The property is just 30 metres from Porthleven Beach. This rugged beach is a photographer’s paradise, with dramatic rock formations and wind-swept seas. The eastern side of the beach welcomes hairy hounds all year, and, at low tide, you can enjoy long walks along the shoreline to nearby beauty spots such as Loe Bar. The bustling market town of Helston (2.5 miles) makes a great day out. As well as having many paw-friendly eateries, you’ll also find a beautiful park, boating lake, and woodland walks through the Penrose Estate.
