Newhaven is a spacious holiday home located in the picturesque village of Porthleven, Cornwall, just 100 meters from the harborside and 400 meters from the expansive sandy beach. Accommodating between 4 to 6 guests, this three-bedroom property features a master bedroom with views of the harbor head and a private garden complete with a patio and barbecue, making it perfect for outdoor dining. The home is pet-friendly and is ideally situated near a dog-friendly beach that welcomes four-legged companions year-round, catering to families and pet owners alike.
Porthleven is celebrated for its tranquil ambiance and culinary delights, boasting a variety of award-winning restaurants, cafes, and pubs. The charming 18th-century fishing village offers visitors an array of activities, including art galleries, gift shops, and various water sports and boat trips available at the harbor. The long sandy beach, complemented by stunning sea views, provides an idyllic setting for relaxation and leisure, making it a favored destination for vacationers seeking both adventure and tranquility.
The village retains its quintessential Cornish charm, featuring a supermarket, traditional fisherman's pubs, and unique quayside shops selling local arts and crafts. Visitors can enjoy leisurely strolls around the harbor, observing the boats and fishermen or simply soaking in the breathtaking coastal scenery. Porthleven's appeal is further enhanced by its vibrant floral displays during summer and the dramatic winter seas that attract walkers along the coastal path, which stretches from Lands End to The Lizard.
Just two miles away lies the bustling market town of Helston, known for its mix of Georgian and Victorian architecture and a variety of shops, pubs, and restaurants.
