Get away to this homely and comfortable ground-floor apartment on the south coast of Cornwall and relax in the south-facing garden with a coffee from the Nespresso machine. Spend your holiday relaxing on one of the many idyllic beaches or enjoy long dog walks along the rugged cliffs. Or visit the famous Minack Theatre, which is carved out of natural rock and offers panoramic views of the seashore.

Inside the apartment is a cosy lounge with French doors leading to the patio and a lovely sofa where you can put your feet up and watch TV. The bright and airy kitchen/diner is well-organised with a Nespresso coffee machine and a table and chairs. A cloakroom with a WC can also be found on the ground floor. Upstairs is a family bathroom and two bedrooms – a king-size and twin room. Outside is a small, terraced garden with south-facing views, garden furniture and a BBQ.

Located in the small village of Porthcurno which is set across a valley on the south coast of Cornwall, this property is sought after by beach lovers seeking tranquillity and natural beauty. There is a dog-welcoming pub and cafe within 2 miles as well as a National Trust beach, Porthcurno, which is backed by granite cliffs and allows canines during most of the year. If you’re visiting during the high season, instead head to Pedn Vounder Beach (2 miles) which is dog friendly all year round. The Minack Theatre (less than 0.5 miles) allows four-pawed companions to visit for a sniff around.

The best thing about this apartment is the location. Its just down the lane slightly from Porthcurno beach car park, so only a 5 minute walk to the beach. The size of the apartment is good, but it felt quite tired when we visited. The outdoor seating area needed some attention as the seating was dirty. The cleanliness was not great throughout tRead morehe apartment as there was mould on cushions and around the windows in the bedroom. I think this would be an amazing apartment if the cleanliness were to be improved. As nobody had written in the guest book since 2025, perhaps the apartment had not been let for a while. Hide

The Morvah cottage was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The patio area had plenty of seating and caught the sunshine for most of the day. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return at a future date. Many thanks for the starter pack, much appreciated.
