Cliff Top Cottage in Porthleven, Cornwall, is highly praised for its stunning sea views, cosy atmosphere, and prime location close to local amenities and the harbour. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches such as flowers and wine, and the property's cleanliness and comfort are frequently commended. While some minor maintenance issues and disruptions due to nearby building work have been noted, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests planning return visits.
The majority of guests found the cottage to be clean and well-kept, with only a few isolated reports of dust and pet hair. The positive remarks far outweigh the negatives, indicating a high standard of cleanliness overall.
The location is consistently lauded for its amazing sea views and proximity to the harbour, shops, and restaurants. The availability of parking and easy access to the coastal path add to the appeal, making the location almost perfect.
Guests describe the cottage as cosy, comfortable, and a 'home from home', with special mentions of the soothing sound of waves and the snug bedrooms. A few comments about uncomfortable pillows and dampness slightly affect the score.
While the cottage is generally well-equipped and the upside-down layout is appreciated, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as problems with locks, heating, and garage doors. These issues suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
Guests have expressed gratitude for the thoughtful gestures like flowers and wine on arrival. However, as these gifts are not consistently mentioned by all reviewers, it is politely noted that such extras, while delightful, may not be guaranteed for every stay.
Cliff Top rests just a stone’s throw from the sea and offers access to the beach, with magnificent views from the first floor open plan sitting room and its own small balcony.
Cliff Top Cottage is a reverse-level home designed to make the most of the stunning views over Porthleven beach. The open plan living area on the first floor has patio doors opening out onto a private balcony, there are two beautifully furnished bedrooms and a modern bathroom with a thermostatic shower over the bath. Outside, Cliff Top Cottage is probably one of very few in the centre of Porthleven to have a garage – and a double one at that! There is plenty of space inside it to store surfboards, bikes and wetsuits.

WiFi pitiful. Using vodaphone mobile. Frequently no Internet. Used water bottle under bed along with other rubbish and pizza crusts under sofa. Garage bit small, skoda octavia about 3/4 inch each side and maybe 2 inches on length very tight!
