1 The Chapel

Part of a converted Methodist chapel in Rinsey, 1 The Chapel is a one-bedroom house for two with sea views. Original arched windows remain from its former use as a place of worship, and the super-king-size bed can be arranged as twins on request.

One bathroom serves the flexible bedroom. Wi-Fi, off-road parking, a dishwasher and a washing machine are provided, and the letting agent's category ratings record four out of five for cleanliness, equipment, comfort and location. Dogs are not accepted. A south-facing lawned garden gives the house private outside space, useful given there's no private hot tub or pool. The chapel setting suits guests wanting an older building with laundry facilities, a private garden and off-road parking rather than a modern build.

Porthcew Rinsey Cove is 400 metres away. Wheal Prosper, a 19th-century engine house, stands on the clifftop above the water. Praa Sands is 1.1 miles away, followed by Prussia Cove at 2.2 miles. Porthleven is a 10-minute drive for restaurants along the harbour wall. The Germoe guide covers the wider area.

Twenty holidaycottages reviews give the property a rating of 4.7 out of 5, and host Amanda manages the booking. **Best for:** a couple wanting flexible beds, sea views and Rinsey Cove close by. **Less good for:** guests needing step-free accommodation, EV charging, a private hot tub or more than one bedroom.
