  • "What an amazing find!"

    . The cottage itself was perfect and had everything we needed- and more. The attention to detail was perfect- and a welcome basket was greatly appreciated . From the comfortable beds (which we didn’t want to get out of!!) to drinks in the garden watching and listening to the world go by, we had a wonderful week. Porthleven is definitely on our list of places to come back to, and Crab Cottage will be top choice to stay.

    Wonderful to hear you had a great holiday and so enjoyed your stay in Crab Pot. We do try hard to get it right so seriously appreciate your comments. The cleaner remarked how well the cottage was left. Thank you for taking the time to strip the beds too. It was a great help when there is such a lot to do between changeovers. Thank you for your lovely comments and for being model guests! I hope the rest of the summer is a good one for you and that we may see you again sometime. Take care and best wishes to you all.

  • "Had a great stay at Crab Pot Cottage."

    Very comfortable and well equipped. The separate baby/child annexe room was much appreciated. Parking outside was a bit of a lottery but generally OK.

    It was really good to know you enjoyed your stay in Crab Pot Cottage and found it very comfortable. The ‘Pirate room’ is very handy and children do love it. We try hard to get things right in the cottage but can’t control the parking I’m afraid. Generally it is possible to park within 75 yards of the property if not directly opposite. Thank you for choosing to stay in Crab Pot and for your great review. We do hope to welcome you again the the future. Best wishes to you all. Property Owner

  • "A wonderful stay, the joy of waking to watch the colours of sunrise over the harbour and the lights twinkling over the water at the end of the day."

    Crab Pot cottage is in an enviable position with quality restaurants, pubs, shops and galleries just a few steps away. The cottage is charming with some delightfully quirky yet fully functional features. A well stocked kitchen, separate dining room and cosy lounge each thoughtfully provided everything we needed for a relaxing hassle free stay and we slept well at night in the very comfortable bedrooms. The generous welcome pack was much appreciated, a reflection of the thought and care given throughout to ensure our stay was ‘just right’! Thank you.

    It is really great to hear you enjoyed your stay in Crab Pot as much as you did. We sincerely appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing such a good review. Guest feedback and comment is very important to us as we want everyone to have a good experience. Hopefully you will stay in Crab Pot again at some point.

  • "A Glowing Stay at Crab Pot Cottage We’ve just enjoyed five fantastic days at Crab Pot Cottage, and it truly exceeded our expectations!"

    This cottage is perfectly equipped—if it’s not there, you probably don’t need it. The highlight for us was the cozy log burner, which added such a warm and inviting glow to our evenings. Despite initial concerns about the cottage being cold, we were pleasantly surprised. The heating is so efficient that we actually turned it down most of the time! We’re already looking forward to staying here again, hopefully in the summer months to experience a different season. A big thank you to Tina for her excellent communication throughout our stay—she checked in to make sure everything was perfect and made us feel so welcome. Highly recommended!

    It is so good to hear that you enjoyed your stay in Crab Pot despite experiencing some very wintery Cornish weather. Thank you so much for leaving such a lovely review. We do try hard to get things right so it is doubly appreciated to read your comments. I really do hope we can welcome you again, perhaps when the sun sparkles on a blue sea in the summer! Thank you so much for taking the time to post a review. Very best wishes to you all for now, Christmas and the New Year. Property Owner

  • "This is a terrific place to stay."

    Comfortable lounge, separate dining room and a well equipped kitchen with every mod con including a second fridge freezer and a toilet next to a utility room. Didn’t make use of the side courtyard but this would be useful on a hot summer’s day. The garden overlooks the harbour and perfect for drinks and eating outside. Bedrooms are comfortable and two bathrooms make this perfect for a family stay.Parking isn’t usually an issue and you are minutes away from the excellent cafes and restaurants around the harbour. This is my fifth stay in this house, I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else in Porthleven.

    Wow! Thank you so much for a wonderful review. It is always a pleasure to welcome you to Crab Pot. We do put a lot of hard work into the cottage so are particularly appreciative of guests like you who see that and take the time to write such a glowing review. You are very kind and thoughtful. I am delighted you have enjoyed your stay once more and hope to welcome you again another year to Cornwall and to Crab Pot. I hope your journey home wasn’t a bad one as I know road conditions were not good in places. I’m pleased that you obviously got home safely. Very best wishes to you and your family. Property Owner

  • "One star for incorrect address given for the cottage which led us up a single track cul de sac causing reversing problems, property turned out to be on the other side of the harbour."

    Two stars for cleanliness because the cottage kitchen cupboards were so jam packed full of equipment that nothing was cleaned properly. Two stars for comfort, bed and lounge were good. Many areas of the cottage were cramped. One star for facilities and maintenance, most of sanitaryware didn't function properly.

    It was unfortunate you were given the incorrect postcode by Cornish Cottage Holidays, not a good start to your holiday. The description and photographs do clearly show the cottage to be overlooking the inner harbour. The cottage is kept exceptionally clean in all areas and is usually complimented on how well equipped and clean it is and never that there is too much in the cupboards. Following your stay I went to the cottage and checked everything. The shower in the shower room is was found to be functioning perfectly well so I am mystified as to why you seemed to have a problem with that one of the two in the cottage. No one had mentioned an issue with sink and bath plugs in the en-suite prior to your stay. That has now been looked into and one of the two plugs replaced. When we spoke you acknowledged that if prior guests had not mentioned it, I would not know. Thank you for flagging that. Of the three toilets in the cottage there was a fault with the one in the shower room. It appears that the screw inside the cistern attaching the handle to it was loose. Possibly as a consequence of it being loose the hook joining the handle to the flush mechanism had detached. An easy fix as it turned out. It was such a shame you did not contact me as soon as the problems occurred and I could have found a plumber to visit. You arrived on the Saturday and did not inform me of any problems until the following Thursday mid day. I tried but it was not possible to get a plumber to come on your one remaining day, a busy changeover day, Friday. I’m pleased you found the high quality beds to be comfortable and also the lounge furniture. I hope you were also able to take advantage of the lovely seating area overlooking the harbour during your stay. Crab Pot is described as a characterful Edwardian ‘cottage’ and has been lovingly restored and brought up to date. Your adverse comments are not reflective of all the very positive ones found in the Visitors Book. Property Owner

Your home away from home

Crab Pot Cottage is a charming, four-bedroom holiday home resting near the coast in the bustling town of Porthleven, Cornwall.

With a collection of traditional, well-appointed interiors, and a terrific location close to nearby amenities and outstanding views of the harbour, this delightful abode makes an ideal base for a family or group looking to book a refreshing, fuss-free seaside getaway.

Park up roadside outside your new home-from-home, taking a moment to soak in your brilliant new setting as you gaze out upon the bobbing boats that rest along the harbour.

Step into Crab Pot Cottage and be instantly greeted by an array of warm living spaces, complete with wooden floors and tasteful, exposed stone walls, some featuring art from local artists that serve to add character to this already vibrant dwelling.

Get to work in the well-equipped kitchen, rustling up a delicious meal that can be savoured in the dining room or even in the rear courtyard if you and your loved ones fancy an alfresco affair.

To relax, retreat to the sitting room, an inviting space with ample seating, a sleek Smart TV, and a well-placed woodburning stove - the perfect place to catch up on the day's events over a glass of your favourite tipple.

On warmer days, walk across the road to your very own private garden, where you can take a seat on the outdoor furniture as you enjoy unparalleled views of the harbour and beyond, a truly dreamy way to spend your evenings.

When sleep calls, refresh with a shower or bath before you finally catch your rest in one of the home's four welcoming bedrooms, including a plush king-size with a TV and en-suite bathroom, a small double, a twin with TV, and the pirate room, housing a single bed, ideal for children; there is also a shower room and cloakroom for your convenience.

If you can tear yourself from your tranquil new home, set out on foot to explore the boundless beauty of Porthleven and beyond.

A short walk will bring you to your nearest pub and restaurant, The Ship, followed by the Atlantic Inn Porthleven, if hearty pub grub is in order, whilst the idyllic stretch of Porthleven Beach is also within walking distance, where lazy beach days and water sports are waiting to be enjoyed.

Discover Kota Kai for brasserie and fusion food or head into the town centre where you will find the quayside location of the Harbour Inn, as well as Amélie restaurant, along with Porthleven Supermarket, where you can load up on homely essentials throughout your stay.

Other notable places to eat include Nauti But Ice, The Deli, Ann's Pasties and The Atlantic Inn, where you can watch the sun go down over the sea, along with Dan Dan the Lobster man, a seasonal harbourside van and tables for seafood, a haven for foodies.

Pay a visit to the art galleries on the harbourside on route to the Clock Tower, or if your stay aligns, experience occasional exhibitions in the Old Life Boathouse.

During your time in Porthleven, be sure to pay a visit to the Baulk Stocks and the picture-perfect locale of Porthleven Harbour, whilst the fabulous National Trust site of Penrose nearby also serve as must-visit attractions that you simply cannot miss.

All of this and more is yours to enjoy when you choose Crab Pot Cottage for your next Cornish getaway.

  • Penzance 10 miles
  • Hayle 11 miles
  • St. Ives 17 miles
  • Falmouth 17.5 miles

Porthleven is one of south west Cornwall’s hidden, coastal gems, located near Helston, famous for it's annual Flora Dance Festival. Situated between Lizard Point and Land’s End, Porthleven retains the feel of a traditional Cornish fishing village, enjoying uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean and the beautiful Cornish coastline. The iconic clock tower sits on the harbour entrance and the pubs, shops, cafés and restaurants cluster around the historic picturesque inner harbour, where there is plenty of boating and marine activity. With a warren of streets lined with classic Cornish, granite cottages, an extensive beach manned with lifeguards, the chance for alfresco dining in one of a number of well reviewed restaurants, and crabbing off the harbour, there are plenty of activities for the whole family to enjoy, all year round. Porthleven is building a reputation for eating out with a popular food festival established in the spring. Out of season, Porthleven has one of the best surf breaks in the country where you can sit down and get lost for hours watching the energetic surfers riding the waves. There are some fabulous hidden coves along this stretch of coastline, including Praa Sands, Poldhu Cove, and Rinsey, a magical setting for the more energetic. You may have even seen pictures of Porthleven on television, being one of the best spots in the UK for storm watching, with the crashing winter waves often being used as the backdrop to weather forecasts. Walkers will enjoy the South West Coast Path, adventuring west past Rinsey Head with spectacular views, or south across Loe Bar to Penrose Estate with it's National Trust cafe, and on to Gunwalloe Church Cove. Take a trip to the Isles of Scilly by boat or plane and marvel at the display of sub-tropical gardens at the stunning Tresco Abbey. The Eden Project near St. Austell offers an interesting day out. Porthleven is the ideal base for discovering the delights of west Cornwall and the Lizard Peninsula.
