About this cabin rental
Enys Boathouse offers self catering accommodation in rural Cornwall. Situated in the heart of a Cornish village, our holiday let is deceptively spacious and comfortably furnished, sleeping up to four people.
Enys Boathouse is a unique wooden structure - a copy of the Bolney Ferry Boathouse on the River Thames. This charming property benefits from its own private terrace with panoramic westerly views out over the countryside.
The village of Porkellis is ideal for those seeking a quiet, rural holiday let in Cornwall.
The boathouse is a studio-style space and offers versatile self catering accommodation suitable for families, couples or groups of friends. The main living area converts into a double bedroom; a comfy double wall bed (with a proper sprung mattress) provides the main sleeping facilities - this folds away when not in use .
For smaller children (aged 5 and over) there is the added excitement of sleeping in the Crow’s Nest - only accessible via a loft ladder - a cosy sleeping space in the eaves of the property that is ideal for younger children but is spacious enough for two adults at a squeeze, should you prefer.
All bedding and towels are provided.
When the beds are not in use, the open plan living space is great for entertaining. A TV, with Freeview, DVD player. Free unlimited broadband is also available at the property.
A sailor's kitchen awaits for those who enjoy cooking and guests also have use of a BBQ. However, for those who prefer to eat out, the local pub - offering good value food and drink - is just a minute’s walk away.
Kitchen facilities include:
- Microwave and Air Fryer
- Portable Oven and hob
- Small fridge and freezer
- Kettle
- On-demand hot water
Elsewhere, there is also a small dining table and, for when the sun is shining, an outdoor table, chairs and parasol are also at hand.
Enys Boathouse boasts a cosy shower room, toilet and wash basin - towels will be provided.
Should you need to wash or dry your clothes, there is also a small room located on the ground floor (where parking is also available). Here you will find a washing machine and tumble drier as well as clothes line, BBQ and deck chairs.
Porkellis is perfectly situated; it is a quiet country village, surrounded by green fields, yet ideally located for access to both north and south coasts, the busy towns of Helston, Falmouth and Truro and many visitor attractions.

We had a lovely cosy stay in Enys Boathouse. The property is interesting , well equipped and comfortable. It is very quiet tomorrow and relaxing and the children loved the fairy garden and swing in the garden! . They were so excited when we arrived ! All together a very special experience. Michael the host was very friendly and helpful and provided detailed information in the information folder. The Star Inn a short walk away serves lovely meals and has great service.

Spent Christmas here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Can imagine that would be great in the summer and would be able to make better use of the private garden. Small oven made Xmas dinner a little challenging but was practical enough.
Overall a great stay... thanks Mike...
