Harbour View 500m from the beach!
We stayed at Vanessa’s to walk the St. Michael’s Way from Lelant to Marazion. The property was perfect for our needs, cosy and comfortable. The kitchen/living area was perfect for an evening cuppa and very well equipped. It was peaceful and had great views. St. Ives is a fabulous place, with amazing beaches (great for cold water swimming in Feb!). We loved the Thai restaurant (recommended by Vanessa - thank you!) and The Sloop Inn (c1312) was a lovely ‘real’ pub with a great atmosphere. Many thanks, we would thoroughly recommend and hope to visit again. Nicola and Lizzy (London and Stamford)

Blue Horizon Penthouse - amazing views + parking!
a gorgeous apartment in the perfect spot in Newquay with the loveliest view! everything was so comfortable and the apartment was nicely decorated with everything you'd need. Janie was so helpful and even messaged to say we could check in early, unprompted, as the cleaners were in early. would absolutely recommend.

Porthminster Apartment One
The central location of the apartment is fantastic with amazing views of the harbour and St Ives. Although the apartment is small, it has everything you need for a short stay. Elaine was helpful in giving restaurant recommendations and always responded promptly. The fire escape steps up to the apartment could be a problem for some people but was fine for us. St Ives was gorgeous and the apartment was perfect for our stay.

Sunset @ Lusty Glaze - Sea Views & Private Parking
Great stay over twixmas - it was a perfect base for some stunning coastal walks and we loved the sea views from all 3 rooms!

Carrick View Harbourside Apartment
Beautiful, sizeable apartment, quality bedding and furnishings. Lovely vibe to the place. In the heart of everything but nice and quiet. Gorgeous views!! Had everything you need for a great getaway. We travelled here by train but this was not an issue. Convenient for the station and everything else. A short walk to the lovely Gylly beach. Amongst the action of the town and the shops and restaurants. A short hop to the St.Mawes Ferry. Really lovely. I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone! Alex was a most friendly and communicative host. Thank you!

Lapwing - Apartment with stunning harbour view.
Our stay at Lapwing was nothing short of excellent, for a very fair price we enjoyed 4 days and 3 nights worth of stay. The flat was beautifully presented with lovely views over the harbour, clean living space and plenty of information regarding the local area, my partner and I were very happy with the recommendations and got to experience almost all that Janet had recommended (good local pubs, a few lovely restaurants and great points of interest). The flat, despite being near a road, was peaceful and quiet and the balcony area overlooking the harbour made mornings extra special for us. Janet herself was an exceptional host, attentive, friendly and helpful. We didn’t have much contact as the information she provided for us was all encompassing, making us feel comfortable to go and explore. When we did contact Janet, she was very helpful, especially with checking out, wishing us a safe trip and allowing us to keep our bags at the flat whilst we enjoyed our final day, a nice touch

Waterside apartment, Vi-spring king bed, parking
This apartment was lovely. It was clean and had everything I needed. It is Right in the centre of town. Close to all the shops and restaurants. I look forward to staying again in the future.

Ocean Breeze Porthtowan
Wow, such a beautiful beach front apartment. Great communication with Mike. Fantastic amenities, everything there that you would need including fresh milk. I think the only negative we can think of is the price. We would happily pay more just for the superb views. Definitely going back and staying longer next time. We are only a 20 minute drive away and just needed a quick break. We chose well.

Stunning House Direct Beach Views of Mawgan Porth
Wow! What a gorgeous house! The views from the balcony are absolutely stunning. The kitchen / living area is a beautiful space, well equipped and very relaxing to spend time in. The bedrooms are so stylish and beds very comfortable. A real luxury to have 3 bathrooms too. Handy to have a hot water outside shower and large shed to store wetsuits and boards etc. A very short walk down to the beautiful beach. Can highly recommend the surf school - great instructors. Loads of eating places a few minutes walk away. We especially enjoyed Catch, also great pizzas from the pizza place. The cafe at the Bedruthan Hotel and Spa was also fabulous. Great to visit nearby Padstow and Port Isaac and a great walk to Bedruthan Steps from the National Trust car park. Jax and Simon’s home is a perfect place to spend a week in Mawgan Porth and we would love to come back one day.

The Anchorage, Portmellon, Mevagissey
We had the most beautiful, peaceful and relaxing stay at The Anchorage. The location was superb, and the views from the house were my personal favorite part. I spent every spare minute in the sunroom looking at the ocean. There was plenty of space for us to all be comfortable and my children especially enjoyed the kids room with bunk beds! The town is beautiful and there are so many different beach options around to choose from. It is definitely a little stressful driving in the village (coming from from an American haha) but that aside it was a perfect end to our vacation and I plan on booking again (this time with some friends or maybe extended family to fill up the many bedrooms!)

Upper Beach House
absolutely stunning property and spotlessly clean and we just keep coming back. Gareth had great communication and a brilliant host. thank you once again

charming 3 bedroom Cornish cottage by the sea
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage! The home was just as described, bright, clean and welcoming. Jane is a great host and provided very clear instructions in addition to some lovely welcome treats. Our children loved the variety of board games available (and the smart tv of course). The cottage is perfectly located for the promenade and the town with a lovely cafe at the bottom of the road and a couple of beautiful gardens/parks nearby. We hope to return in the summer!

Stepping stones 3 bedroom house.
Lynn was an excellent host, super responsive. The place was very welcoming, a great home base for a few days with lovely views. Has everything we needed for a baby too. If you’re not driving note that it’s up quite a steep hill!

Family BeachHouse In Newlyn Town Opposite Beach
Ideal location for our long stay during winter. The sunrises over the bay were beautiful. Three coffee shops and a supermarket within in a short walk. Super comfortable bed, luxurious bed linen. Fast and easy communications with the host. Everything you could need in an AirBnB. Would highly recommend.

Little House in the Valley, short stroll to beach
Sharon went above and beyond to make sure our Christmas week was warm, cosy and full of treats and sparkle! The place was beautifully decorated and we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay, thank you so much. Our Springer also loved it there, plenty of local places to walk the dog too.

Luxury house with garden for 4-8 in Cornwall
Ideal base and great communication, Beautiful house and very well equipped. Good selection of games to play and little extra ie body board, buckets and spades fishing nets etc. Thank you

Fistral Sands Beachside Flat - Panoramic Sea Views
Amazing views! Loved this place and would highly recommend. The hosts are very responsive and provide lots of information on the local area. The property is exactly as described and beautifully decorated. Very cosy with a homely feel.

CLIFF EDGE apartment with stunning seaview
Had a four night stay with my wife, children and parents, 6 of us in total. A great space for this amount of people for sure especially as the apartment offered 2 and a half bathrooms and two secure parking spaces. Place was clean upon arrival, and housekeeper Tracey was very friendly and welcoming as we did get in touch regarding a couple of things. Just for anyone who are fans of views to be aware of the only drawback was the scaffolding on the building which of course is temporary. It's currently partially obstructing the views from the apartment, completely blocking views from the dining area and slightly overhanging the balcony area, we were however made aware of this prior to arrival. Both Karen the host and Tracey the housekeeper were great at communicating, very friendly and accommodating where possible. We made Tracey aware the high chair wasn't at the property upon arrival and this was quickly fixed would recommend as hosts for sure and feel you can book with confidence.

The Old Gas Works on the Harbour
Stayed for 4 days for my wife's 40th birthday, the apartment was easy to find with parking permit available, front door is however on a main road but we were aware of this due to knowing the area. Kitchen was well equipped for our stay, our bed and the our sons beds were very comfy. Big telly with netflix and NowTV and warming log burner. Location was close to transport links (bus and trains), 10 minutes walk to Gilbert's beach bar and salt bar, local pub across the road and numerous takeaways (including a Chinese and domino's) within walking distance. Asda supermarket and Lidl 5 minute drive away

Falmouth Two Bedroom Beach Front Apartment
We had a lovely week at Amanda's place. The shared kitchen and living area was comfortable and spacious with lovely views of the sea through the bay window and french doors. Everything was clean and well stocked. We were two couples. The twin bedroom was slightly cramped for two adults and all the stuff that they brought for the week, but the beds were comfortable and the bathroom adequate with a good powerful shower. It was easy to walk to the beaches, restaurants and shops in town and to explore all our favourite haunts from years ago. The cliff path to Swanpool and the walk along the seafront to Castle Drive was virtually on our doorstep. Thank you , Amanda. Staying here made our week easy and fun.

Flip Flop Flat, Sea Views, Short Stroll to Beaches
My family of 4 had a lovely night at Iona and Steve's place. Their whole family is so friendly and the property is lovely and clean! It was perfectly kitted out for our stay, complete with gorgeous toiletries and breakfast treats. We were only there for one night but we managed a fun stomp around on the beach (which was a short walk away) before we left. Thank you both!

Harbour View Falmouth
Beautiful flat nestled right in the heart of Falmouth. Flat was exactly as described in the description and photographs. It was lovely and warm (without the need of putting the heating on), constant hot water, beautifully accessorised and Elly has clearly thought of all her guests needs whilst they would be staying there - the snack basket was a great welcome for my hungry teenager too. Would definitely stay again when visiting my daughter at University. Thank you Elly.

Fistral Beach Apartment: 'Best view in Newquay'
We were looking for a suitable accommodation property to host my differently-able son whom we only get to see when we travel down from Wiltshire. No 9 was ideal - certainly beating 2 previous properties we have tried. Our son was really relaxed in the property and seemed very at home with the facilities.

Lucky No. 13 Sunrise to Sunset Luxury Apartment
This was a return visit for us. We loved it so much we booked to come back before leaving. Second time just as charming. Flat is spotless, quiet and dog friendly. C&A were brilliant at letting us know the flat was available early and we could come when we were ready. The area is fantastic. Right in the tick of it on the beach while still being away from the hustle bustle of the village centre. The summer house and Alcatraz are pretty much on site and perfect for a bite or a sundowner. 10/10.
