Description

Portscatho 0.3 miles.

Penvar is a charming coastal cottage tucked away in Gerrans near Portscatho, Cornwall, offering an idyllic hideaway for two beside the sea.

Just a gentle stroll from the village pub, local shop, and sandy shoreline, the cottage is perfectly positioned for relaxed days exploring the Cornish coast.

Inside, the interiors are rich with character, from the exposed wooden roof beams to the thoughtfully styled spaces that give the cottage its warm, inviting feel.

The kitchen and dining area provide a lovely setting for preparing and sharing meals together after time spent by the water, while the sitting room invites guests to unwind beside the woodburning stove, with the beams overhead adding to the cottage’s timeless appeal.

Step outside into the enclosed rear garden to breathe in the coastal air, where the hot tub offers a romantic spot to soak beneath the evening sky.

When night falls, the double bedroom provides a welcoming retreat, served by a bathroom with a bath and hand-held shower, ideal for slow starts and unhurried evenings.

The surrounding area of Gerrans and nearby Portscatho is known for its scenic coastal walks, picturesque harbour, and unspoilt beaches, with winding paths and pretty villages waiting to be discovered.

Penvar offers a delightful Cornish base where seaside adventures and characterful surroundings create the perfect setting for a romantic escape.

What guests are saying

If we hadn't been committed to staying in Gerrans, we would not have stayed.

The accommodation bore little resemblance to the images shown online and we felt it had been minimally equipped with little consideration for guest comfort and convenience. The property contained several cleanliness and maintenance issues. The sofa was stained, the guest information handbook was out of date, and the kitchen facilities were very basic, consisting of a two-ring hob, limited crockery and cookware, and minimal seating. The sink area and cupboard space beneath were dirty and contained cobwebs. The downstairs shower room and toilet felt dated and the overall decor was tired. The flooring also remained damp for a considerable period after arrival. We were disappointed with the standard of towels provided and felt that the outdoor area, including the hot tub space and seating area, was neglected and not maintained to an acceptable standard. Overall, we felt the property's current condition did not match the expectations created by the listing photographs.
