    Helston Holiday Cottages

    Helston is a beautiful and historic market town deep in the heart of West Cornwall, that acts as the gateway to the gorgeous Lizard Peninsula. It's rich history makes it the ideal holiday destination, particularly during the annual Flora Day, a world famous celebration with pagan roots. Helston's fascinating medieval architecture and traditions are the perfect base from which to discover Cornwall's glorious sandy beaches, picturesque harbours and coastal hikes.

    Here at Snaptrip, we have thousands of cottages in Cornwall, each one hand-picked for their charm, character and location. Large groups will have their pick of the best barn conversions and family-friendly farmhouses with huge open-plan living areas. We also have dog-friendly holiday homes with enclosed gardens and access to excellent walks, and romantic cabins with hot tubs that are perfect for an evening under the Cornish skies.

    Whether you need pet-friendly play areas or panoramic sea views, our customer service team will find you the ideal South Coast home. Stay in the heart of Helston, walking distance from a brunch spot or a cosy pub, or look at beach-side cottages further afield. And the area has attractions to suit all kinds of groups; kids will love a day out at the Flambard Theme Park, while the National Trust's Penrose Estate offers gorgeous walks through woodland and across windswept beaches.

    What our customers say about their holidays

    • David - Verified booking

      Immaculately maintained, tiny characterful property.

      The Old Stable had everything we needed for a comfortable week away, although I would not think a longer stay would be practicable owing to the basic cooking facilities (a portable two ring electric hob and microwave) and just a tumble drier meaning handwashing lighter items of clothing, finding a laundrette or bringing lots of stuff. We appreciated the good quality tea, coffee bags and biscuits which are the hallmark of a thoughtful and welcoming host. Towels and tea towels are provided but bring your own beach towels. The bed on its little gallery is comfortable but we found moving the rolling steps to and fro in order to cook then wash up a bit of a faff, be aware they are quite heavy with steel handrails and glass panels. We knew about this arrangement, and it wouldn't put us off staying here again. No outside space of course, which we also knew about, but the quiet beach is adjacent and is one of our favourites on the Lizard. The Five Pilchards pub, which in the past has done good pub food, has closed down and is for sale but we had a great meal at the beach café next door. I know people rave about the Fat Apples café just up the lane but every time we went past we had just missed it being open. It shuts promptly at 5 pm. Our dog enjoyed staying here and we were glad she couldn't get up the steep steps and attempt to climb onto the bed to find us, which she sometimes does in an unfamiliar house. She had to stay in her own dog bed. She knew where we were and could see us so she was content. This was a definite plus for us.

      What a gem of a property…Annette’s welcome was so warm 10/10 & her scones are amazing.

      Both her & Martyn were there if anything was required, nothing was a problem. The big black book with all local information in was so helpful (luckily no vets or doctors needed). For my partner & I the garden for the dogs was amazing, & always a big one for us. We timed it that when the people in Goldolphin Barn were in the garden, we stayed in (re-active terrier) then went out when they finished which wasn’t often, our terrier did managed to get into the other garden a couple of times. Location of the cottage is set down the end of a track, very quiet & peaceful. Perfect for exploring Penzance, Helston, Lands End & south west Cornwall. Praa Sands became our local beach & our 2 four legged girls loved it. If your a fish lover then popping into Newlyn for daily fresh fish is a must. We are defiantly going back & next time book both cottages as it will be nice to take my parents there. Anyone booking this place won’t be disappointed, absolutely perfect for 2 adults & 2 dogs

    • Caroline - Verified booking

      Apple Tree Cottage was beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean - the perfect hideaway from the world, which was just what we were looking for.

      The hot tub was private and added a touch of luxury. The garden was lovely, the apple tree beautiful. The bed was enormous and so comfy, the bedding and soft furnishings were excellent quality. The kitchen was the perfect cosy cottage kitchen, with the range and the round table. All the fixtures and fittings were high quality. The village of Gweek is lovely, and the local shop is a real hub and has everything you could need, with friendly staff. Our top local visits were Mullion Cove, a circular walk from gorgeous Helford to Dennis Head and Frenchman’s Creek, St Michael’s Mount and Minack Theatre. And we absolutely recommend the pasties and sausage rolls from nearby Gear Farm - best ever!! We loved every minute of our autumn break in the rugged Cornish countryside of the Lizard Peninsula and hope to be back one day. Thank you to the owners of Apple Tree Cottage for a wonderful stay.

    • Julie - Verified booking

      A beautiful little gem of a property to stay in Porthleven, Cornwall, with stunning views across the harbour.

      Ideal location to use as a base to explore, with a must visit to the Twisted Currant, especially for their cream teas and The Deli, especially for their pizzas. Exceptionally clean, very warm, with underfloor heating and preset heating. Would have been nice to have had some instructions to be able to adjust the temperature as it did feel slightly chilly on occasions. Also, no instruction to utilise the Quooker, however didn't prove to be too much of a problem. Wonderfully comfortable bed and beautiful bedding in the main bedroom and some super decorative touches. Settees in the living room were not designed to spend too long a period of time on as felt a little hard on the back. All in all, a lovely place to stay.

    • Mr Weeks - Verified booking

      My wife and I, plus small dog, had a wonderful and relaxing stay here for the week. The cottage was spotlessly clean, with a lovely welcome cream-tea pack, as well a surprise beautiful vase of flowers! Very close to the beach and all that Porthleven has to offer, as well as the ability to sit and listen to the sea. Handy to be able to park on the road right outside for the week with a well equipped kitchen that allowed you to cook most things without having to go out and eat if you didn’t want to. The cottage was very warm, especially with some starter logs supplied for the fire! We didn’t have the best of weathers, but it didn’t stop us enjoying our stay. We will visit again. Thank you.
