Fisherman's Cottage in Porthleven is a well-regarded property, praised for its spaciousness, comfort, and excellent location. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities and the property's character, with its proximity to local amenities and the harbour being a highlight. While some concerns about dampness and maintenance are noted, the overall experience is seen as cosy and welcoming, with thoughtful touches like a welcome pack adding to the charm.
Most guests found the cottage to be clean and well-presented, with a welcome pack that was gratefully received. However, there were isolated complaints about a strong smell of damp and some unclean kitchenware, which slightly lowers the overall cleanliness score.
The location of Fisherman's Cottage is consistently praised for being ideal, with easy access to the harbour, shops, and restaurants. Its central position in Porthleven makes it a perfect base for exploring the area.
Guests describe the cottage as comfortable, cosy, and well-equipped, with special mentions of comfy beds and a relaxing atmosphere. However, the low ceilings and steep stairs may not suit everyone, which is a minor drawback for some.
The cottage is commended for being well-equipped with everything needed for a stay, including a kitchen with utensils and appliances. Some guests, however, mention issues with maintenance and dampness, suggesting room for improvement.
The thoughtful touches, such as a welcome pack and Christmas decorations, are highly appreciated by guests, contributing to a homely experience. It should be noted that such gifts, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.
This fully refurbished cottage sleeps six with a separate bedroom in a converted net loft. Pets are welcome, while the property is just a short walk from Porthleven's pubs and restaurants.

Appearance a bit tatty and could do with refresh. Damp smell in property, improved through the week with airing and air fresheners but never totally gone. Great location in village and well equipped.
Miss Low
Would highly recommend Fisherman’s Cottage. The separate Net Loft provides flexibility for family/friends. Both outside seating areas are lovely and cosy. The cottage is in an ideal location for all amenities in Porthleven and is perfect for easy access to the harbour. This is our second time staying here, will definitely look to booking again.
