Over looking Mount’s Bay between Land’s End and the Lizard, Porthleven is an unspoilt, picturesque fishing town with a beautiful sweeping bay. You’ll find great galleries, shops, arts, crafts and good eateries dotted around the streets leading to the 200 year old harbour. Today catches are still landed and despatched by the quayside fishmongers and a relaxed and beautiful area for walking, cycling and sightseeing, Porthleven is a super cottage holiday destination.
Stretch out on the golden sands of Porthleven’s gorgeous beach after a stroll around the town and a Cornish Cream Tea. There are boat trips out from the harbour for fishing and scenic jaunts, plus kayaking for the more adventurous. Lace up the boots and join the South West Coast Path for splendid walks and views; see the seals at nearby sanctuary in Gweek, enjoy full on family fun at the Flambards Experience and explore Cornwall’s past underground at the Poldark Mine in Wendron.
