We loved our stay in Suffolk Cottage in Porthleven and would recommend anyone to stay there. Highlights: * Loft Room with stunning ocean views. * Sound of the ocean whilst sleeping at night (and views from the master bedroom too) * Location is fabulous - you can walk everywhere in Porthleven - you can leave the car in the parking bay. Lots ofRead more eateries to enjoy. Porthleven has a spectacular ocean beach which stretches on for miles. (Stones at first - then sand) * There is SO much to see and do near Porthleven. We visited - Lizard Point, Minack Theatre, Mousehole, St Michaels Mount, Fowey, Looe, Mevagissey and finally our favourite place..Polperro. * Equipment - Suffolk Cottage has everything you need for a home to home stay. The kitchen is well equipped. * Comfort - Suffolk cottage is very comfortable and has fabulous beds and sofas to enjoy and a strong, powerful, large shower. Lovely quality bed linen and fluffy towels. * Cleanliness - Suffolk Cottage is very clean & tidy. * Style - Suffolk Cottage is extremely stylish with wonderful local artwork, ceramics and photographs from galleries in Porthleven. We even purchased some for ourselves to take home Hide

The location is great, walkable to the harbour, shops, pubs and restaurants and beach and the coast path. (Highly recommend Kota Kai for lunch -you can take your dogs- we loved it so much we went twice). In-fact you could very happily spend a couple of weeks here and not need to go anywhere else. The cottage is fully equipped with everything youRead more should need and you can tell it has been carefully thought through. Little touches like spare dog bowl, lead and towel should you forget yours and amazing eco welcome pack with essentials for the kitchen for the first few days of your stay. This was our first time to Porthleven and we can't wait to come back. We would very happily stay at Suffolk Cottage again. Hide

Christmas week with our 19 month old. Wonderful break in a fantastic cottage. For a winter break this cottage was just ideal for us. We made great use of the wood burning stove. The kitchen was well stocked, with a good range of invent. We were very happy with the level of cleaning and maintenance of the cottage.

It's a beautiful, comfy cottage in a superb location. Really couldn't fault it. It's cosy , with all the amenities needed and the loft room with the 72" TV was an added bonus. We had the best time.

This is the second time we have spent a lovely week at Suffolk Cottage, loved it the first time so came back for more. Porthleven is our favourite part of Cornwall, never fails to deliver whatever the weather. The loft at Suffolk Cottage is a superb space, just watching the weather roll in and out. Love it.

Suffolk cottage was well positioned overlooking the sea, on the beach side of harbour. Lovely loft sitting room with sea view. Easy walk to beach, harbour and Porthlevens cafes and pubs. Well equipped with thoughtful touches. Would love to return

The cottage for us was perfect. From the moment we walked in it felt fresh, clean and homely. The kitchen was very well equipped and very clean. We didn't use the downstairs living room or the second bedroom but the other rooms in the house were light and airy. The main bed room was large, the bed was comfortable and super sized. The shower waRead mores excellent and there was never a shortage of hot water. The loft room was our main place to relax in the cottage; what a fabulous additional room. Again, light and airy and so lovely to be able to see the sea while warm indoors. In terms of the location, again, perfect for us. Private parking really helped. A lovely walk to/from the harbour. A local, friendly, pub just around the corner. Hide

The nicest property for the nicest area. Bed was very comfy, house is well equipped, large tv in the loft to watch films at night. View from the bedroom and loft are out of this world. Couldnt have asked for a better location to spend the week. Will be coming again!

Very nice cottage, we liked the fact that strair gates were provided. If you are elderly you may find the stairs a little steep as my 88yr old mom struggled and couldn't join us in the loft room, so unfortunately it went unused.
