Waterfront holiday rentals in Cornwall

This is the view found only on postcards and movies, and to have it right at my fingertips was the treat of a lifetime. Light bright compact space with all I needed, and the blackout curtains were helpful. Even with the teaming summer hoardes shuffling by underneath, my space felt like private retreat. I even sang along to the evening buskers. Super clean and easy to access, the laundry was a bonus. I’m already planning a return trip. Perfect spot for solo female travelers.

Janet's apartment has everything you could need for your stay. The views from inside and from the balcony were amazing. would definitely recommend it.

Loved it! Fantastic location, clean & comfortable space with a great view. Really appreciated the excellent dining recommendations as we loved the Fish House and Fort restaurants. Also liked Lost Brewery for beer and burgers. If interested in a bit of an excursion, or otherwise find yourself in the south eastern part of Cornwall, you have to check out the Hidden Hut near Truro.

This was the best place we stayed all holiday. The location is incredible, just steps from Bamaluz beach, with amazing views and the sound of the waves coming right into the house. We loved sitting on the balcony and watching all the dogs playing on the sand, and it was only ten minutes walk to all the main beaches in St Ives. The flat had everything we needed for a comfortable week’s stay. An absolutely perfect base for a beach holiday.

We had a lovely couple of nights away with our Daughters, the apartment was very clean and cosy the views & surrounding area are beautiful. Mike was a great host.

Lovely and comfortable spot overlooking the the beautiful bay and harbor. Gorgeous views from the big window and the place has everything you need for a short stay in St Ives. Good location very close walking distance to the beach and central town. Jacob was a very helpful and responsive host and the house notes /directions are very clear. There's no parking in front of the house but the nearest public lot is about a 5 min walk away. Would recommend this sweet spot!

We absolutely loved staying at Charlotte's place! The loft was very spacious, extremely comfy, and well-equipped. A parking spot is provided. Charlotte lives on the property as do her two sweet pups and some very sociable chickens who tended to greet us when we walked to our car each morning. The location is great, very quiet and peaceful, but a quick drive to the center of Falmouth where there are lots of shops and wonderful restaurants. Trebah garden is only a few minutes away by car and is outstanding. Charlotte is very kind and welcoming, and a super responsive host. We couldn't have asked for anything more and truly enjoyed our stay at the loft. I highly recommend renting this property.

Lovely modern apartment set in beautiful peaceful and restful surroundings. Very clean with all facilities. Clear instructions for check-in and general instructions. Felt very at home. Easy to find and some manageable steps to property. Nice beach and amazing views. Within walking distance or five minute drive from Looe-which was our main interest. Would happily book again. Thank you!

We borrowed buckets and spades (and trucks and diggers) from the collection in the shed and took the short walk down to the lovely sandy beach most days. My granddaughter had heaps of fun playing in the shallow pools and golden sand in the sun. There were bodyboards too, but she's a little little for that just yet. Nanny was usually to be found observing us from the comfort of the Cove Cafe and admiring the wonderful vista - St Ives Bay in the sunshine (which is also the view from the house itself). The bravest of us swam in the chilly sea and returned invigorated, eyes sparkling. Suki charged about with energy and enthusiasm, greeting every other dog on the beach. We highly recommend this place. Notes: It's a flat beach, so the sea is very close a high tide and a long way off at low tide. Eating out in Cornwall is expensive. The house has a well-equipped kitchen and there is a Lidl and M&S Food Hall nearby if you are minded to eat in. The train St Erth<->St Ives is a nice option.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully decorated, modern home. The interior design is stylish and welcoming, with every detail thoughtfully considered. The location is unbeatable — just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and cafés. Having private parking was a big plus, especially in such a popular area. And the sea view? Absolutely stunning. We never got tired of it! Highly recommend this place for a relaxing and convenient getaway.

absolutely stunning place in the beautiful moorlands. Very private, close to the river and lots of horses, sheep a cows nearby. The garden is huge and the kids(and grownups) loved it. Great facilities, well equipped kitchen. Wendy was most helpful and very quick to respond. We might well make it an annual trip.

We had the best weekend staying in Amanada’s house celebrating a birthday it was beautiful. The house is even more beautiful than in the photos & my 2 year old loved looking out to sea every morning seeing the birds. We will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you so much ☺️ one bonus for families thinking of booking that I did not see prior to our stay is the stairgate at the top of the stairs to the kitchen it was perfect with 2 young children we could shut this off.

As a family of 4 the property was ideal, it had all the amenities required for our 4 day stay. The property is stunning, so tastefully furnished and decorated, it is in a prime location with stunning sea views. Its location is great for strolling into Penzance and a short car journey to local sites, such as the Minack theatre, which is well worth a visit as well as St Ives. We were luckily enough to meet Lenn during our stay, he knows the area well and gave some great suggestions as well as being a great host, we found the property easily and followed Lenn’s instructions to a tee, we would recommend Lenn and Gord’s beautiful property, and was very sad to leave it to come home, a stunning find x

We had the most beautiful, peaceful and relaxing stay at The Anchorage. The location was superb, and the views from the house were my personal favorite part. I spent every spare minute in the sunroom looking at the ocean. There was plenty of space for us to all be comfortable and my children especially enjoyed the kids room with bunk beds! The town is beautiful and there are so many different beach options around to choose from. It is definitely a little stressful driving in the village (coming from from an American haha) but that aside it was a perfect end to our vacation and I plan on booking again (this time with some friends or maybe extended family to fill up the many bedrooms!)

Really enjoyed our stay at the Slipway. Great location for walking into town and the property is very comfortable and well equipped. Nice view of the river from the property and communication with Neil very easy.

The most beautiful getaway. The views over the meadow to the sea and St Michael’s Mount are incredible any time of the day and we loved spending time on the terrace. Perfect location for walking, sea swims and east to get into town and explore the Cornish coast. The decor is also amazing with so much attention to detail. Will be back!

We had an incredible stay at this apartment right by Fistral Beach. The views were absolutely stunning waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunset from the window was unforgettable. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was ideal just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and shops, yet peaceful and quiet in the evenings. We couldn’t have asked for a better base for exploring Newquay. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Lovely clean flat with loads of space just a few minutes from the station.

A fabulous location overlooking the river/harbour. Gemma's is a really nice 2nd floor apartment on level ground at the start of the main street and only a 10 minute walk to the beach. If you're OK with the stairs I thoroughly recommend it.

This is a fabulous and comfortable apartment from which to explore Newquay and Cornwall. With water views, a great open plan living, dining and kitchen space and a generous bedroom, it had everything we needed for a 7 night stay. The hosts were welcoming and generous. This is one of the best bnbs we have stayed in.

Great place, beautiful view, well stocked. Will be back.

Lovely view, great location. The bed and bedding was so so comfortable, for once I slept in. Great black out curtains in the bedroom and super quiet.

lovely place really enjoyed our stay. Thank you

Such a lovely break. Good communication from hosts, all the information you need. Beautiful location and would definitely stay again. The hosts went above and beyond providing all the cleaning materials, toilet roll etc. As they say beat views on Newquay and we all had a fabulous stay and would will definitely book again.
