The Details

  • Location

    Where is it?

    Porthcothan is one of Cornwall's secret bays, a deep inlet surrounded by rocky headlands with a big expanse of sand at low tide. This tiny coastal village has a lovely hidden quality; it has remained largely undeveloped and provides an 'away from it all' feel.

    With just one pub and a small local shop, you'll find Porthcothan is quieter than many of the better-known beaches with a focus on playing on the sand and in the sea. This is the Cornish coast for purists, it's all about the gorgeous natural environment.

    A short drive from Porthcothan takes you to Padstow, Watergate Bay or Newquay for shopping, family activities and all kinds of cafes, restaurants and pubs.

Guest Reviews

"We had our whole family with us and the Roundhouse is perfect for large families."
D Oxley, January 2024
"The house was beautiful, the huge lounge was the best feature comfortably fitting the ten of us for relaxing, watching tv and listening to music.
The location was spectacular with views to the sea and star filled skies all easily viewable from inside the conservatory on the colder days.
We also made use of the garden firepit having a few drinks and keeping warm and cosy during the evening. The bedrooms were all very well
equipped and the large bathrooms were plenty enough for our whole group. Would definitely recommend this house and can only imagine how perfect this would be during the summer."
J Freestone, January 2024
"A super property in a great location. Very spacious for our family of 10 (plus dog). We all had a wonderful stay."
A Tubb, July 2023
"The Roundhouse was an excellent base for our family week in Cornwall. The kitchen, lounge and garden areas work really well for a large group. We appreciated the high quality beds and the location is brilliant."
M Balfour, June 2023
"Beautiful house, ideal for our family get together. Lovely spacious lounge, good size kitchen table for us all to sit on, spacious bedrooms, good size bathroom. Great position, an easy walk to Porthcothan Bay with great walks along the Jurassic coastline, with many beautiful bays, and so many great places to visit. Most beautiful sunset from the garden too."
A Ricketts, September 2022
