Centrally located with breath-taking views across Porthmeor Beach and beyond to its namesake, Island View is an ideal retreat for a family holiday, with the benefit of a reserved parking space approx 10 -15 minutes walk away.

Off the hallway is a lounge with 42" Smart TV. The comfortable dining room is complete with CD player and iPod dock. The hallway leads through to the recently renovated kitchen area with double electric oven and hob, dual cook microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine just off the kitchen. There is a ground floor shower room with a wash basin, WC and heated towel rail. Stairs lead to the first floor with 3 bedrooms, two of which have fantastic views across the bay to The Island. The first bedroom has a 4ft 6 bed, USB ports and TV, the second a 2ft 6in bed (more suitable for a child) and USB ports, and the third has 2 x 3ft beds and USB ports. There is also a bathroom with a bath, separate shower cubicle, WC, wash basin and heated towel rail. Stairs to the second-floor lead into a bedroom (open to stairs) with 2 x 3ft beds, USB ports, a TV, 2 chairs and arguably the best view in the house across Porthmeor Beach and over to the Island.

Fantastic location. Cottage was great and as we expected from the photos. Would definitely book here again. However, we didnt realise there would be so many steep steps into the property and the garden area and that the parking was 15mins walk away, again up some very steep steps - great if you are young and fit but not so great for those who aren'Read moret. The hinge on one bedroom door was broken and we couldn't open the door properly. Just needed new screws. Hide

Brilliant location, so close to porthmeor and to have guaranteed parking space is a bonus. Plenty of sleeping space, the views from the top floor are brilliant and modern improvements had been made to this floor since we last stayed including easier stair way. The kitchen and living spaces are not the biggest if the house is full but they 'do' aRead morend the kitchen is brilliantly equipped. Having a shower room downstairs was great for us. The beds were comfy and there was plenty of storage room. We would stay again. Hide

Brilliant rental, superb location, fabulous views, great outdoor space, very comfortable beds, 2 great bathrooms/showers. Constant hot water on demand. Very good level of equipment and facilities. All we hoped for and true to its description. Very nice vase of flowers was very welcome. Perfect (and quite rare) configuration of double bed/single/twiRead moren rooms etc for our 3 generation family. We had a great week. Hide

Comfortable house. Comfortable beds, (very important!). Lovely views from front bedrooms of Porthmeor bay. Well equipped kitchen. Collection of buckets and spades meant we didn't have to waste lots of money! Not easiest access to property with small children.
