Porthpean is a picturesque coastal village known for its scenic beach and tranquil atmosphere. Nestled on the south coast near St Austell, Porthpean offers visitors a peaceful escape with its sandy shores, clear waters, and surrounding natural beauty. The area is popular for water sports, particularly sailing and kayaking, and the coastal paths provide excellent opportunities for hiking and enjoying panoramic sea views. Additionally, the village is steeped in history, evident in the nearby St Austell Bay. Golfing enthusiasts can book a game at Porthpean Golf Club (0.1 miles) or the spectacular Carlyon Bay Club (3 miles). Spend a day at the marvellous Lost Gardens of Heligan (5 miles) and visit the famous biomes at The Eden Project (5 miles).

Great location to explore Cornwall from. Cottage is well equipped, spotless and the bed is comfy. You can see the sea from the kitchen window. Beach is walking distance (step hill back up but worth it) and South West coast path a short walk. We visited Lands End (parked at Sennen), Padstow, Bodmin Railway, Eden project, Mevagissy etc. Had a great tRead moreime. Hide

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location and so near many places of interest. The cottage was spacious and very clean with all amenities and the owner had left us a lovely cream tea. There was a good parking space and a lovely garden as well as a short walk down to a lovely cove and then onto the south west coastal path. If you need peace and quiRead moreet there is plenty in abundance in this delightful area of Cornwall. Hide

We had a wonderful week in Casa Mia. The cream tea welcome pack was a lovely touch! The cottage was very clean and the bed was really comfy. Ideal location although we didn't brave the walk down to the beach as very steep! Took the car and parked which was reasonably priced and enjoyed several walks on the beach. Janet was really helpful with a fewRead more minor WiFi challenges. Hide

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Casa Mia. It is in a very convenient position just south of St. Austell. We were able to visit many beautiful places nearby, including Charlestown, Fowey, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Eden Project and the Roseland Peninsula. The cottage is in a very quiet village near a beach. It was a real bonus to have privaRead morete parking and garden. The view from the garden is spectacular! The property and equipment were exceptionally clean, the huge bed was very comfortable. The area is very quiet and relaxing. The village church is s few steps from the property and supermarkets and a fish and chip shop are within a ten minute drive. The owner, Janet, came to make sure all was well on our first evening. A cream tea and flowers awaited us in the cottage, as well as books and leaflets regarding the area to look at. A good stay! Hide

Lovely cottage with fantastic panoramic views of the bay from the garden. If you are looking for a quiet, re-charge the batteries vacation this cottage in a very small village is ideal, with the beach is just a 5 minute walk away.
