Heather At Rosehill Lodges

A three-bedroom lodge sleeping six in Porthtowan, set in a wooded valley 450 metres from the beach. The lodge has a wood burner, a private hot tub on a glass-covered terrace, EV charging, and a BBQ on the garden deck. Dog-friendly with two dogs welcome.

Bedrooms include a super king-size with en-suite, a king-size, and a twin that converts to a super king on request. The open-plan kitchen and living area has a dining table and comfortable lounge seating for six. Portreath Beach is 4.5km away; Trevaunance Cove lies 5.1km distant.

Porthtowan's village has a gastro pub and the well-known mermaid pool - a substantial natural rock pool that appears at low tide and draws families and swimmers throughout the summer. The South West Coast Path runs directly through the village, connecting to St Agnes and Portreath.

Best for active groups or families who want beach access without giving up home comforts. Less good for those needing a washing machine, as the lodge does not include one. Rated 4.1 stars from 13 reviews.

EV charging on site makes this a practical choice for electric vehicle drivers, with no need to seek out public charge points in the village. The BBQ on the garden deck suits groups who want to eat outside during warmer months, while the wood burner and glass-covered hot tub terrace extend the season into autumn and winter.
