Hepworth

Hepworth is a single-storey three-bedroom cottage on the Gwel An Mor resort near Portreath, fitted with underfloor heating, air conditioning, and an air source heat pump. The enclosed wraparound decking includes a private hot tub. Four steps lead up to the lodge and its decked area, and the merchant notes the property is not suitable for anyone who may be in a wheelchair.

Inside, the open-plan living space has a kitchen with electric oven, hob, Nespresso machine, and dishwasher, plus a sitting area with a woodburning stove and Sonos speakers. The king-size bedroom has an en-suite walk-in shower, and two further twin rooms (one converts to king-size on request) share a bathroom with bath and shower. All three bedrooms have TVs, and there is a Smart TV in the living area.

Outside, the decking wraps around the lodge with furniture for outdoor dining. Portreath Beach is 800 metres away, with firm sand and reliable Atlantic surf. Godrevy Beach - a wide National Trust stretch with views of Godrevy Lighthouse - is 4.9 miles along the coast. On-site resort facilities include a swimming pool, golf course, and restaurant. Off-road parking is provided.

Portreath sits in a narrow valley on the north coast, 4 miles from Redruth, at one end of the Coast to Coast mineral tramway cycle route to Devoran on the Fal estuary. The coast path from Portreath leads west towards Porthtowan through dramatic cliff scenery and old mine workings.

Nearby: Portreath Beach (800m) and Godrevy Beach (4.9 miles). See our Portreath guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

Best for a family or group of six wanting single-storey living with a private hot tub and access to the resort pool. Less good for anyone wanting more than one beach within walking distance - Godrevy Beach is a 4.9-mile drive.
