Family-friendly holiday rentals in Portreath

We had a lovely 2 night stay at Caroline’s place! We loved the freshly baked scones, clotted cream and jam on arrival. Check in was super easy as the key was just left in the door. Our little boy Myles loved watching the alpacas too! Overall very pleasant and refreshing stay I would recommend!

A beautiful glamping experience that exceeded our expectations. We had our three small children with us that absolutely loved it! They loved seeing the chilckens and ducks on site. Buttercup accommodation had everything we needed and we will definitely recommend it to others.

A lovely house in a fantastic location. Peter and Scarlet were extremely easy to deal with and very responsive. The house was clean and tidy with good amenities - especially the hot tub and the pool table. Well worth checking out.

Beautiful traditional Cornish cottage located within a very peaceful village but only 10mins drive from loads of beautiful beaches. Added benefit of a hot tub which unfortunately we didn’t get to use with a 2 year old in tow! Would highly recommend.

Jenny was fab about us arriving later than expected and we got a lovely welcome when we did eventually arrive. The lodge is lovely and had everything we needed. The gardens are absolutely out of this world, every part you walk around is better than the bit before!! Very friendly, genuinely nice hosts and we couldn’t have asked for more from them. As it was our first time in Cornwall they were really helpful with ideas of where to visit and places to eat/go for a drink. Sonny (the dog) was a massive added bonus too! Brilliant few days away, it was very much needed! Thank you both again :)

What a wonderful find. We met at Tygwella for a family holiday, some of us coming from Australia and some from Manchester. The house was ideal. It was spacious so we could occupy different “wings” with our own bathrooms and come together for meals, chat and play. The house was very generously supplied with basic provisions, kitchen and laundry equipment. We wanted for nothing. Having two ovens was great for cooking adult and children’s meals. The location was so peaceful with great views and easy access to the coast path and beach.

This place was such a great find! We’ve just got back from the most perfect week away. We originally only booked for 4 nights but we extended our stay as we were having such a wonderful time. The place is just lovely with everything you need for a relaxing stay. We loved our welcoming gifts too. Kate and Simon are brilliant hosts and were extremely easy to contact. St Agnes is a beautiful location with some superb coastal walks. There’s also plenty of places to go out for food and drink. The beach is stunning also. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who is considering it (just book it!). Thanks again for a brilliant stay Kate and Simon!

Fiona was a fantastic host, loads of info and very friendly. the house is perfect for a family stay and we loved the cream teas left for us. there is tea and coffee and lots of other handy bits. cupboards full of everything could need like pots pans cling film tuppawear... the main bed was very comfy and cot bed provided. the jacuzzi was great but we unfortunately didn't use the pool as we were too busy seeing the sights. the garden is amazing and we felt very at home. We really loved our stay and we would definitely come back and recommend it to our friends and family.

Karen was a lovely host! The information she provided helped us find the place very easily as it is in a tucked away location! The house was in pristine condition and she had laid out everything you would need, towels, sponge, cloths and tea towels all easy for you to find. The bed was so comfortable and she provided a travel cot which was easy to put up! Would recommend and would stay again

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Julia and Lian’s beautiful cottage! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The cottage is full of character and charm, set in a stunning rural location that offered us the perfect escape from city life. The cottage itself was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully furnished with everything we needed. Julia and Lian were exceptional hosts—approachable, friendly, and always happy to help when we had questions or needed anything. Their kindness and hospitality made our stay even more memorable. A special highlight for our children was the presence of farm animals nearby—they were absolutely delighted and spent hours watching and interacting with them. It added such a fun and unique experience to our stay. We highly recommend this lovely cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with charm, comfort, and genuinely welcoming hosts. We would love to return! Thanks, Saurabh

The accommodation was clean and compact. The perfect size for me holidaying alone. It was the perfect location for coastal walking on The Lizard peninsula which was my reason for coming to the area. Sadly the weather the last two days of my week was not kind to me!

We as a family with twins and a big dog can warmly recommend this beautiful chalet. Nicely decorated and everything you need is in there. The surrounding and the beaches are beautiful and close by. This area is very dog friendly as well which made the holiday for everyone so nice and easy. We will come back one day. Thank you ;)

We simply loved the cozy cottage up the hill with the wonderful view. We stayed for 5 nights and would have stayed longer if possible. The sea shore is only a short walk (~10 mins) away. From there, the beautiful coastal path takes you either south to the beaches and Land's End or north to Cape Cornwall and St. Just. The cottage is perfectly located for both fantastic hikes and serene time at home. Just one thing, I wouldn't advise to come by large vehicle. We had no other choice than going up with our van, and got numerous scratches because of the narrow road and the wild vegetation on basically every side of it (right, left, above). I'd always come back to this wonderful place, but in a small car. :)

fantastic spot and a lovely studio cottage. 30 mins easy walk to St Ives sea front. surrounded by public footpaths and countryside. a great stay in a clean Airbnb. thank you.

Had a lovely stay. Accommodation was perfect, very clean and well equipped and a great location.

Great cottage, had everything i needed. John was very friendly and welcoming and made me feel very relaxed. Location was great with only a short drive to the town centre.

The property matched the description provided, though the photographs give the impression of a larger space. Nevertheless, it perfectly met our requirements. Chris was exceptionally responsive to our inquiries, addressing various questions we had. The area was clean and filled with ample natural light. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the surrounding land for play, as well as the small game room stocked with toys, which was a welcome respite during a particularly rainy and windy day. The on-site washing machine was available for free use, and the washing line proved to be quite useful. Although the outdoor pool was not heated, it did not deter my children from taking a dip and having fun. I would certainly consider staying at this property again.

My family of four recently stayed at Pamela’s place in Portreath and we had a blissful week in paradise! Everything about the week was great - Pamela and her family are so lovely and friendly and it truly felt like a home away from home. I booked this place especially for the amenities of the pool and hot tub and my kids (11 and 8) loved it! It was so nice to have an uncrowded swimming pool to relax at! The apartment was clean and cozy and was a great base for our week of adventures. It was nice to be able to walk 5 minutes for a morning pastry and coffee from the local bakery. It is clear from its immaculate and beautiful nature that Bassett Acre is a source of pride for Pamela and her family and they were perhaps the most gracious and friendly hosts of any place my family has stayed. We are already planning another stay next summer!

We stayed for a weekend and it was perfect. A beautiful property in a very quiet and relaxing setting. Hosts provided all of the information we needed. We will certainly return for another visit in future!

Our stay with Stephen was great! Very clean and private space cabin. With a lovely outside area where we sat with some friends. Very quiet and peaceful. Stephen was great and really flexible RE: check-in timings and always had a very quick response to any queries I had before our stay. Would highly recommend.

As described, good central location within walking distance of the town. Well presented and good amenities.

We had a wonderful stay in the apartment. It was bright and spacious for our party of 4 adults and 2 young children. The pool was brilliant and really added to our stay. Having 2 rooms which were en suite and a third separate toilet/shower room was very convenient. We were sad to leave and would love to return in the future.

I would recommend Fistral cottage, it was larger than the pictures seemed to show, and it had character and charm. The kids loved having access to a pool and hottub, we were lucky enough to have these to ourselves mostly, but we picked a time where it wasn’t peak holiday or very busy. The cottage was in a great location for a short drive to beaches and restaurants. I recommend the Italian down the road, zucchini 😉

This was our family’s second stay at what is our favourite spot at Retallack. The lodge, being right on the water, feels peaceful and secluded, but is only a few minutes’ walk to the pool, restaurant and other amenities. Mel is a great host, always replying quickly, and the lodge has everything we needed for our stay. We’d definitely come back again.
