Harbour Lights, Port Isaac
Description
This delightful three-bedroom holiday home, Harbour Lights, is located in the centre of the busy coastal community of Port Isaac. This charming house welcomes a family or a group of sharing friends looking for a relaxed, self-catered retreat to one of Cornwall's most ideal holiday destinations, boasting off-road parking, beautifully-presented interiors, and a wonderful setting that enjoys stunning views of the countryside and sea.
Park up, unpack, and settle into your lovely new lodgings. The kitchen is fully-stocked with everything the designated chef will need to whip up a tasty, home-cooked supper. After savouring your meals as a group at the dining table, retire to the sitting area where warmth of the woodburning stove will keep you nice and toasty as you watch a movie or two on the Smart TV. After a long, exciting day, treat yourself to a luxurious bath or a warm shower before retreating for a well-deserved sleep in one of the three plush bedrooms, including a king-size with its very own en-suite shower and Smart TV.
If you can manage to drag yourself away from your beautiful new home at the top of the village, venture down the hill into Port Isaac to explore what this tranquil seaside village has to offer. Stock up on necessities at Co-op Food which lies within walking distance from Harbour Lights and then wander into the village to enjoy brunch at Chapel Cafe which is located the other side of the harbour, pick up a few pasties from Nicky B's Pasty Shop, and treat yourself to an ice cream from the appropriately-titled The Ice Cream Parlour. Either drive the couple of minutes down or take a longer stroll down the hill from Port Isaac to spend a tranquil afternoon admiring the sea from Port Gaverne Beach. A 15 minute drive south will take you to the nearby town of Polzeath where you can hire a wetsuit and catch the waves in the sea, chow down on scrumptious seafood at the Cracking Crab, or embark on a walk via the South West Coastal Path through the dazzling, untamed landscapes of the Pentire Point natural reserve. Heading north from Port Isaac will mean passing the fantastic Sea View Cafe (stop for cake/lunch if you possibly can...) on your way to the villages of Tintagel, famed for its Castle ruins, and Boscastle which are both perfect for an afternoon pottering round. Bring your loved ones to Harbour Lights for an amazing getaway any time of year.

What guests are saying
We had a wonderful week at Harbour Lights.
The view is the jewel in the crown. Beautiful mornings and amazing sunsets. The terrace is made extra special by the extraordinary garden below - hilly but beautifully planted. The parking is an absolute must in Port Isaac which is another reason for booking. The house is a short walk to the Harbour and very close to the Co-Op. All in all it was fabulous! My only feedback for the owners is that the garden furniture on the terrace is a bit ‘tired’ which is a shame as it is such a feature of the house however we did love it and would come back.
After a long drive ,it would be nice to be able to make a hot drink ,but no welcome pack ,not even 1 tea bag ,overall the house was very nice ,the furniture and bedding were nice ,but when I opened the fridge ,a big block of ice was stuck to back panel, the freezer doors do not open ,all iced up,also the hot tap in kitchen leaks ,so you cannot use ,the dustbins outside were full ,but when we complained ,it was dealt with the same day also on the 1st morning, we work up to beer bottles thrown in the garden, we did have a lovely stay and the house does have a lovely view.
We enjoyed our week at Harbour Lights with spectacular views of Port Isaac.
The garden was a little overgrown and some of the slabs through the garden were a little uneven. It was a very quiet and peaceful location. We couldn’t make use of the freezer because it was so iced up and we couldn’t get the drawers out - clearly the freezer needs to be defrosted. Also a slight frustration was no recycling for glass waste was provided or any information about bottle banks so in the end we brought our glass waste home for recycling
