About this apartment rental

The Hideaway is the perfect place for a cosy escape to popular fishing village of Porthleven. Tucked away along a lane between the old fishermans cottages, and just a few minutes walk from the harbourfront with all its shops and cafes, this studio apartment is ideal for couples or single travellers who want the benefit of having everything on the doorstep.



Inside, the decor is relaxed and stylish, and the space has been cleverly designed so that you have everything you need. The kitchen is well-equipped, having a fridge with freezer compartment, kettle, toaster, electric hob, combined microwave-oven, along with all the kitchenware, crockery and utensils for your favourite holiday breakfast!



The open plan living space has a television so you can relax after a day of fresh sea air, or sit and plan your adventures for the next day. You'll find a stand up fan, and a heater perfect for all seasons.



The bed, which is located in the main living space can be rearranged as either a sofa or the double bed, and folds out from its wall-mounted frame at the end of the day. It is simple to operate and can easily be puled down with one hand.



The shower room is contemporary in style and has a walk-in shower enclosure, basin and WC.



Pets are very welcome, although only small sized breeds are recommended due to limited space. There is parking possible on Thomas Street and Thomas Terrace which is free of charge.



Locally, Porthleven offers plenty of amenities including convenience stores, bakeries, delis, cafes and restaurants, and has the harbour front and beach on hand too. The famous restauranteur Michael Caines has a popular eatery on the harbour front and Amelies, Kota Kai and The Square are all worth dining out in.



The Lizard Peninsula, just a short drive south is famed for its stunning coves and beaches, pretty villages and unique geology.



Going west along the south coast, you can explore Prussia Cove, Marazion and St Michael's Mount, Penzance and Mousehole, including the world famous Minack Theatre, built into the sea cliffs.



The north coast is also in remarkably easy reach, with Gwithian Sands, Carbis Bay, and the stunning coastal town of St Ives only a 30 minute drive away.



Book with Finest Retreats for the best rates, and start looking forward to your next adventure in Cornwall.

Directions on three little words & instructions were a nightmare in dark & rain, summer evening would have been easier, but smallest sign, hidden pathways covered with rubbish, we arrived 715 didn’t find till 8.30 , to make things worse wasn’t wheel chair accessible, so took even longer, hopefully this will help you advertise to other guests, we feel we were totally miss sold and had hardly any sleep and had to take extra medication, Advertising for fit and able guests be better, prepared to clean on arrival & departure, also sink is a no go so brush teeth & shave in shower, please advertise as is so people aren’t disappointed, such a shame as so looked forward to it, I believe we have been miss sold & even told Emma I was disabled, I believe we are entitled to money back as so many things were not explainedavoided, as a host I would want honest feed back ,Advertisement misleading, sorry . Look forward to hearing back from you with honest feedback, please. No parking when advertised! Lack of details in description! Roof window let’s in cat etc. Bathroom unusable to brush teeth & shave. Couldn’t unpack! No storage, Had to leave coats , shoes , blankets , rain clothes wellies in car! Had to leave box of food in car aswell, Also bed was really a challenge to pull down so once down stayed down, so even more challenging to get about. Neighbours blocking path with rubbish Had to clean on arrival, Would appreciate your feed back,
