Lovely spotless accommodation in a great location.
The location was excellent right in the centre of Porthelven but nice and quiet, no traffic noise. The host was lovely and the accommodation was spotless, although we ate out a lot of choice in Porthleven there were was everything you needed if you wanted to cook in the property, would highly recommend and great value for money, will definitely return.
Everything we needed and good value. Friendly host and good central location.

Great Apartment for a Couple
The apartment was a good size with a comfortable bed and modern bathroom. It was also a minute walk to the harbour and a few minutes to the shops and restaurants.

During our time (October) we really enjoyed our stay at the property, the location is ideal, nestled close to the harbour with a variety of places to eat, drink and visit. The property is very well kept, tidy and modern. Laura was an excellent host and kept us well informed, the welcome pack was clear and concise with useful information to hand.
