We liked the location, the decor and the cottage feel. There are no wardrobes and only tiny drawers so completely unpractical as no where to put clothes except tiny bedside table drawers and five coat hangers in each room. Really not good enough. When people go on holiday they take clothes. They shouldn’t have to live out of a suitcase or put them on the window ledge. Didn’t feel super clean - the inside of the drawers and kitchen cupboards were a bit marked, bedside table top was dirty on arrival & under the sofa cushions had not been recently hoovered.

Clean tidy on arrival Some nice touches such as tea/coffee/milk on arrival Easy access with safe/key entry Great location Bins had not been collected from previous visitors (or two!) - green bin full plus black bags in back courtyard. Mattresses are adequate but could of been better.

The property was clean, within walking distance to the harbour. Useful washer, dryer which was great because we didn’t get much sun. Unfortunately the second double bedroom had very little room around the sides of the bed, my family found that quite restrictive. Both double bedrooms had soft mattress which were not good to sleep on, I wouldn’t return again due to this.

A beautiful little cottage in the heart of Porthleven. The owners have decorated it so tastefully and there are plenty of nice touches to make your stay super. We loved it - a really home from home. Nothing, we loved it.

We had the most wonderful week at Scallop Cottage, it’s the perfect base to check out Porthleven - an amazing harbour town with so many lovely places to eat, drink and explore. We were so impressed with the standard of the accommodation, it was a real home from home and and had everything we needed, from super soft towels and bedding, lovely glassware and even a high chair, travel cot and stair gate for our little one. It’s location was also brilliant for visiting other nearby attractions. We absolutely loved our stay and hope to visit again soon. The only thing we would improve would be to maybe have a bench/small table and chairs in the yard area to enjoy a glass of wine on warmer evenings as with a small child it’s difficult for us to stay out late

clean and comfortable location good

Thank you for a lovely stay and all of the thoughtful touches. We loved Scallop Cottage!

Visited all the surrounding areas, our favourites are Mousehole and St Ives. Recommend Kota Kai for a family meal and the Ship Inn for a drink overlooking the harbour.
