6 St Elvan's

A 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment over two floors in central Porthleven, sleeping 4 across a double ensuite and twin bedroom. The open-plan living space has access to a private balcony where you can sit above the rooftops of the village. Porthleven is one of Cornwall's most southerly harbours - a working port with a reputation for local seafood restaurants and a lively arts and music scene.

Porthleven Beach is 500 metres from the door, and the South West Coast Path runs through the town in both directions. Penrose, a National Trust estate with a freshwater lake and woodland walks, is 1 mile to the east. Helston, the nearest town with a supermarket, is 3 miles inland.

Shops, pubs, and restaurants are within 200 metres, so this apartment suits guests who want to explore on foot without needing a car for basics. Well suited to two couples or a family of four who want to be in the middle of a lively harbour village with restaurants, independent shops, and the coast path right outside. Less good for guests seeking a rural retreat, as the property is centrally located in Porthleven. A washer/dryer is included. Dogs are not accepted. WiFi, parking, and dishwasher included.
