Finest Retreats | The Hideaway

The Hideaway is the perfect place for a cosy escape to popular fishing village of Porthleven. Tucked away along a lane between the old fishermans cottages, and just a few minutes walk from the harbourfront with all its shops and cafes, this studio apartment is ideal for couples or single travellers who want the benefit of having everything on the doorstep.

Inside, the decor is relaxed and stylish, and the space has been cleverly designed so that you have everything you need. The kitchen is well-equipped, having a fridge with freezer compartment, kettle, toaster, electric hob, combined microwave-oven, air fryer and George Foreman grill, along with all the kitchenware, crockery and utensils for your favourite holiday breakfast!

The open plan living space has a television so you can relax after a day of fresh sea air, or sit and plan your adventures for the next day.

The bed, which is located in the main living space can be rearranged as either a sofa or the double bed, and folds out from its wall-mounted frame at the end of the day. It is simple to operate and can easily be puled down with one hand.

The shower room is contemporary in style and has a walk-in shower enclosure, basin and WC.

Pets are very welcome, although only small sized breeds are recommended due to limited space.

Locally, Porthleven offers plenty of amenities including convenience stores, bakeries, delis, cafes and restaurants, and has the harbour front and beach on hand too. The famous restauranteur Michael Caines has a popular eatery on the harbour front and Amelies, Kota Kai and The Square are all worth dining out in.

The Lizard Peninsula, just a short drive south is famed for its stunning coves and beaches, pretty villages and unique geology.

Going west along the south coast, you can explore Prussia Cove, Marazion and St Michael's Mount, Penzance and Mousehole, including the world famous Minack Theatre, built into the sea cliffs.

The north coast is also in remarkably easy reach, with Gwithian Sands, Carbis Bay, and the stunning coastal town of St Ives only a 30 minute drive away.

Book with Finest Retreats for the best rates, and start looking forward to your next adventure in Cornwall.

Porthleven stay
Very cute bijou studio apartment, hidden away between other character properties. Easy to walk down to harbour for potter round, shop, eat or drink out or just sit and watch the tide and people go by. Very well equipped and immaculately clean.
