The Boys' Cottage

The Boys' Cottage is a 2-bedroom property in Portreath, sleeping 4 in a king-size master and a twin room. The courtyard garden has a BBQ, and the upper floor has sea views over the Atlantic. Sea views are available from the upper bedrooms, and the cottage is 500 metres from Portreath Beach - a sandy surf beach below the cliffs with a seasonal lifeguard service running from May to September.

The kitchen includes a dishwasher and washing machine, which suits stays of a week or more. Parking is provided. The village pub and a small convenience store are within a 5-minute walk. Godrevy Beach, with its lighthouse visible from Porthminster on clear days, is 5 miles along the B3301 coastal road.

This cottage is ideal for two couples or a family with children who want direct beach access without a car journey. Gwithian Towans, a broad dune-backed beach, extends the beach options a further 5.5 miles along the coast. The St Agnes Heritage Coast - a mining landscape with cliff walks - is accessible within a 20-minute drive north-east, adding a walking option away from the beach. The Cornish coast path from Portreath itself gives clifftop walking directly from the village.
