November 2021

“Great holiday cottage.”

Homely, comfortable, and very spacious. Ideal spot, great parking. Everything you need to make your stay perfect. If I had one thing to mention, anyone with mobility issues may find getting in and out of the bath difficult.

The exterior of this newly refurbished holiday cottage belies its stylishly furnished interior. With a wonderful conservatory from which to enjoy the sea and coastal views in all seasons and a decked terrace for sunny days, plus parking for two cars, The Porthole is the ideal getaway for a small family, or group of friends. Located just 5 minutes walk from Port Isaac harbour itself, this self-catering home sleeps 5 guests in 3 bedrooms with one bathroom. The Porthole has been tastefully decorated in fresh and light tones to reflect it's coastal landscape. The open plan, fully fitted kitchen offers plenty of space to cook up delicious family meals using freshly caught seafood from the fishmonger by the harbour. Light the wood burner in the dining room and linger over mealtimes, before retiring to the airy living room with contemporary stripped wooden flooring to relax while you watch a movie or read a book. There is another wood burner in the living room to curl up beside on cooler days. The adjacent conservatory is light and bright and perfectly positioned to make the most of the jaw-dropping views. Open the patio doors wide on warm, sunny days to let the sea air flood in, or wander out to the sunny decked terrace to marvel at the view.

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6 miles; Padstow 9 miles

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village.
