Little Tamerisk - view west overlooking the beach
Seasonal Photo's - updated 4 April 2008

	Taken from the beginning of the pier across the harbour entrance to the Loaf Rock. This looks quite small here and is just covered at high tide and you can walk out to it on the rocks at low tide and see how big it is. 2nd April08
	Two pictures taken a few hours apart. In the morning and a few surfers grabbing the last of a few waves before the tide drops too low and it is looking like it is going to be a beautiful day. Later on and this rolls in. fortunately by late afternoon it had gone again. 3rd Apr 08

	16th Jan and and not a bad sunset for a dull day. Earlier we had a walk around the harbour.

	January 1st and a walk just inland from us here. Of the many field of daffodils that are springing up these seemed the most prominent.
		Storm seas in December 2008. See our video below right
	A sunny October day on the beach
	Around the harbour and left some fundraising stalls on the harbour head. 8 Aug07
	Left: Sea pinks on the cliffs in May Right: From the Penrose NT estate and this great view of the Loe Bar bridging the gap between the sea and The Loe

We try to vary the pictures on local views and when we can get about. But if there are any requests for the future, please email us.

Welcome to Porthleven

We are a local family business offering a selection of seven of our own individual self-catering accommodation sleeping up to 7 persons in the beautiful harbour village with 3 miles of beach, of Porthleven.

We are ideally positioned along the coastal Loe Bar Road. Where is this? Have a look at Contact Us for our location and village maps. But they are grouped together on or around the cliff top, overlooking the beach and Mounts Bay.

We have parking for each property in our own off road car park, which is only a minutes walk from all the A ccommodation.

Steps to the to the beach are only 40 metres away, which is ideal for swimming or a stroll on the sands. And it is only a few minutes walk down to the pier and centre of the village and harbour side, which is surrounded by a variety of cafes, shops, bakery, restaurants and pubs.

Porthleven is also an excellent holiday base for seeing this part of Cornwall. To the west, Penzance and Lands End. The east, the Lizard Peninsula. Inland the attractive cathedral city of Truro.

If you want to leave the car behind, then for walking or cycling, its out of your front door and onto the coast path or Cornish lanes. Heading either east or west with spectacular views all around. Look at our "Walking and Cycling Cornwall" page.

What else is there to do here? If you don't fancy a stroll about the harbour and shops, a coastal ramble, scenic drive, swimming, sunbathing and playing on the beach on the beach, fishing or boat trip or taking it too easy. Then look at our "What's On?" guides for events happening in Porthleven and west Cornwall.
