Welcome to Seascape, a beautiful modern three-bedroom cottage with reverse level living, a private garden and parking for two cars on the drive.
Situated in the picturesque village of Porthleven, Seascape is built on the South West coastal path with many walkers passing by, making this an ideal location for families and couples to relax and enjoy this beautiful part of the world.
The property is set on two floors, with the lounge and the living area are on the first floor, where you can enjoy spectacular sea views and the changing scenery over Mounts Bay from the cosy chairs whilst dining. If the weather is bad then retreat to the games room which can be enjoyed by all ages. Read a book, play one of the games or watch a DVD, film or programme on the flatscreen TV.
Within walking distance to the village pub and beach, there is so much to do. Visit Porthleven, a lovely fishing harbour surrounded by cafés, restaurants, and small shops popular with visitors. Wander around the streets, sit and have a coffee or pop into one of the galleries. Locals and visitors make the most of this area with paddle boarding, kayaking, and surfing and for little ones, crabbing off the harbour wall or playing in the shallows of the water are firm favourites. If you enjoy walking there are plenty of paths to follow, you can walk along the coast path to Loe Bar, this is a long circular walk or just take one of the shorter routes.
One of the best beaches is Praa Sands 6½ miles away towards Penzance. This long sandy beach is a favourite for families and people who like water sports, and you can even have lessons and hire the equipment. There is plenty of parking and facilities including a café, shop, and bar so no need to rush home to eat. If you head to Penzance just over 13½ miles away you will find Newlyn, Mounts Bay and Marazion all worth a visit.
Heading towards Helston is the Lizard, the most southerly part of the UK, home to the Minack Theatre, Lizard lighthouse and heritage centre. There are amazing walks where you can see a variety of wildlife, stunning coastlines, and beautiful beaches, or you can book to see a show at the Open Air Minack Theatre. There are lots of National Trust properties and gardens to visit, for children there is Flambards in Helston which caters from toddlers upwards, and for those that like history, visit the Victorian village and the Blitz. At the end of a busy day head home and relax in the garden watch the beautiful sunset and the night skies and plan the next day’s adventure.
Free WiFi
Only dogs allowed at the property.
There are steps or steep slopes in the garden.
Pets: 1 pet welcome at £35

Nice, clean & comfortable accommodation. Location was excellent for the harbour and lower Cornwall. The reason for not giving 5 stars is the driveway. I have a Zafira car which isn't the lowest car on the road, but I still lost my front bumper trim. I tried driving onto the driveway, reversing, sideways, nightmare. I don't normally mention negatives on my reviews, but this time I feel the issue should be highlighted to pre- warn future customers.

Seascape was really lovely. Everything clean and tidy. Brilliant location for visiting other places. Views were lovely. Would recommend to anyone as a base for holiday. Thinking about booking again in the future.

Great holiday at Seascape. However during this hot weather we felt a garden umbrella and fans should have been available for the comfort of guests.
