“We have stayed in Portreath on many occasions but this was our first visit to Surf Cottage, the location of this accommodation is amazing, the cottage was very nice and cosy, the local people were very friendly and we would definitely book again.”
Mr Sargeant November 2019

“The area is amazing.”

We love watching the surf and sea. I am recovering from partial knee replacement and the walk on the sand did give the knee a good workout. We walked the Godrevy beach cliffs and saw the coastguard helicopter and boats looking for the woman that was missing. Also the seals at Godrevy beach was awesome to see and hear. It was a brilliant holiday and would like to come back. We enjoy the off season time as it’s quieter and more private. The only thing I don’t care for is the smell when you first come in. Pet Oder then you get used to it. I love dogs and raised them but when you go and stay someplace I don’t like to smell this.

“I am hesitant to recommend Surf cottage as part of me wants it to remain a secret, however the truth is that it is hidden gem.”

Location is outstanding, you cannot get any closer to the beach (open the gate and you are on it!!). The cottage is warm, clean and welcoming with everything you need. The view is tremendously addictive looking out to sea with the surfers is better than any television.
Mr Stead September 2019

“Great location with excellent views.”
Mr Kemp August 2019

“The cottage was superb and views from cottage were outstanding.”

Plenty of facilities shops pubs restaurants all within five minutes walk.
Mrs Gash August 2019

“Stunning cottage, stunning location.”

Will be back.
Mrs Crearie August 2019

“Cottage was small but nice and well equipped.”

Location right on beach was good and beautiful views. Unfortunately dogs were not allowed on the beach between 7am and 7pm in summer months and we were not aware of this when booking. This meant we were unable to fully enjoy the location. This would be an ideal location for families looking to enjoy surfing and beach location.
Mr Gutteridge July 2019

“This is our second trip to Surf Cottage.”

The position is truly amazing, you just can’t get any closer to the beach. The cottage is very comfortable with everything that we needed. As the weather was brilliant we did not need to venture far from the cottage as the village had pretty much everything with pubs, a shop and bakery. Another brilliant holiday.
Mrs Elliott March 2019

“Not the best TV reception and the settees could do with being upgraded, particularly as in the high season this is a very expensive property; however it is in a lovely position and we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.”
Mr Sargeant February 2019

“Wonderful time even in February great views can eat and watch the sea and surfers from the comfort of home We booked again November later this year.”
Miss Steadman December 2018

“Amazing cottage in a fantastic location only little gripe would be the bathroom which is in need of a little TLC, perfectly clean and serviceable but needing one or two repairs but this certainly did not take anything away from this amazing little get away.”

There wasn't anything more you could want at this cottage, the beach right on the door step and some fantastic places to eat out too. A good central location enabling you to get out and about and visit a lot of Cornwall and all its amazing sights.
Mrs Barsley-dale November 2018

“We had an amazing stay at Surf Cottage.”

The layout was very dog friendly even though we could not access early when we arrived due to insurance issues. The bathroom does need a refurb/replacement this winter as it's decidedly shabby but tbe rest of the house is stylish, well appointed and the Basset Arms is massively friendly and does an amazing steak. For Gluten free travellers, the local bakery carries a good number of gf lines which are delicious including pasties.
Mrs Glynn October 2018

“This was the best holiday we've ever had.”

The cottage was wonderful, perfect location and my children had the most incredible time as did our dog. We hope to come again in the future.
Mrs Barnes October 2018

“This is our 6th visit to Surf Cottage and again a wonderful holiday.”

Now having WiFi made the cottage the complete all round destination. The only thing that stops me recommending this cottage to anyone else is the fear of it being continually booked and unavailable for us to go. OUTSTANDING Cottage.
Mrs Drinkall September 2018

“Absolutely in a fantastic position on the sand, you just step out the gate onto the beach.”

we love going late in the season, its like having your own private beach. the house is amazing. beautifully maintained and tastefully decorated. Faye gave us a wonderfully warm welcome even though we did arrive early. TV provided, not needed. couldn't take our eyes of the view from both sets of patio doors, and from the kitchen window while trying to concentrate on washing up. Go and see for yourself.
Mrs Walker September 2018

“The location of this cottage is second to none.”

We could not have wished for a better place. Views fantastic. We had a lovely week. A couple of things about the cottage could have been better. The bathroom needs updating the shower handle came off in my hand the first time we used it. Bath has very high sides and if you have any disability it is difficult to get into with out help. Bathroom was clean but could do with a deep clean. The cottage felt damp especially in the bedrooms. This could be because the Sun is never on the cottage and could it be because it is so close to the sea ? Needed to put the heating on a couple of times just to take the damp feeling away. Excellent place if you are into surfing
Mrs Bown September 2018

“Amazing views and access to the beach.”

Furnishing dated and could do with a refresh i.e kitchen and bathroom
Mr Kemp July 2018

“Location was excellent Well laid out cottage.”

Probably one of the best beach holiday cottages in Cornwall. Plenty of amenities all within walking distance.
Mr Lloyd July 2018

“From first taking sight of the cottage and location we knew we were going fo love our stay.”

Nice lay out lovely comfy beds open plan. Perfect location. All you could ask for. The only criticism i think the batbroom could do with updating silicone a bit grubby needs replacing. But will be returning for sure. Had a lovely week. Thanks again

The property

You can't be nearer the sea than this!

Literally on the beach on the wild west coast of Cornwall, mid-way between St Ives and Newquay, Surf Cottage holds a stunning position.

Commanding full vantage across the picturesque cove, the location is idyllic for beach lovers, surfers and families with young children, and the sight of Atlantic rollers breaking onto the foreshore will hold you spellbound even on a winter's day.

Breathtaking walks along the coastal footpath over windswept headlands provide an opportunity to experience the majestic beauty of the Cornish coastline.

Single storey, inside Surf Cottage's granite stone walls lies a spacious open design living room where squashy sofas rest on a natural slate floor; the kitchen boasts a generous range of oak cabinets with glossy black granite worktops, and washing up is never a chore when standing at the Belfast sink looking out to sea!

A beautifully fitted bathroom and two tasteful bedrooms add to the comfort.

Bounded by a low wall with picket gates at each end there is security for very young children to play on the patio, whilst the cove with its breaking surf and intriguing rock pools to be explored at low tide, is an ample playground for all.

An outside shower is useful for sluicing down children and wetsuits after a day on the beach.

Restaurants, small shops and three pubs are within walking distance.

There is private off road parking for three cars.

About the location

PORTREATH

Truro 14 miles; St Ives 15 miles.

With its sheltered harbour, beautiful Portreath was, in the 1800s, a hive of activity and industry as a major tin-exporting port. Today, the village attracts visitors from around the world with its wild and rugged coastline. High cliffs, secluded coves and sandy, surf-washed beaches typify the area while all around are reminders of the area's rich industrial heritage. Portreath offers a small fishing harbour, shops, a number of pubs, three cafés and a Chinese restaurant, while its safe, sheltered sandy beach is a popular attraction. For a great day out, visit the cathedral city of Truro with its cobbled streets, shopping centre, theatre, museum and great restaurants, just 14 miles away, or travel a few miles along the coast and follow the vast expanse of sandy beach, which leads down to Hayle and on to St Ives. A delightful holiday location.

Note: Please state at the point of booking if you require beds to be made up differently to that specified. Late notice may mean we are not able to change the configuration in time for your arrival.
