Bre An Mor

Bre An Mor is a one-bedroom annexe at Praa Sands sleeping two, 300 metres from the beach. The annexe sits in the Parc Morrep cluster, with the Sand Bar pub a 2-minute walk away.

One double bedroom and one bathroom, with a private garden patio for outdoor mornings. Wifi and parking are included. There's no wood burner, dishwasher or washing machine, and dogs aren't accepted; the kitchen and living space are compact, in keeping with the annexe footprint. Changeover is Saturday. Bre An Mor is one of the better-value couples' bases on this stretch of the south coast.

The beach itself is a mile of sand on the south coast that picks up Atlantic swell, with a surf school in summer and lifeguard cover. The Sandbar Restaurant sits on the sand alongside the Sand Bar pub. The coast path west reaches Cudden Point and Prussia Cove inside two miles, and east to Porthcew (Rinsey Cove) under two miles. Porthleven's harbour restaurants are 3 miles east, Marazion and St Michael's Mount 6 miles west, Helston 5 miles east. Strong rating: 4 stars across 53 guest reviews.

Best for couples wanting a low-cost walk-to-the-beach base for the south coast. Less good for groups, dog owners or anyone needing a fully equipped self-catering kitchen.
