A short drive away from any of our Lizard or West Cornwall cottages will take you to one of our favourite places for relaxation – Porthleven Harbour, where you can spend the day on the beach followed by watching the sunset and enjoy the bobbing boats from one the excellent bars or restaurants, which include Kota, Rick Stein Porthleven, Amalie’s and the Ship Inn. A short walk from Porthleven is Loe Bar, which sites a spectacular lake and woodland, taking you on a circular path where lake meets sea only divided by a band of sand, great for cycling, walking a dog or bird watching. For another great beach experience close by try the beautiful National Trust beach, Church Cove situated in a natural setting of reed beds and golden sands, it is lifeguarded seasonally, great for body-boarding and snorkelling.
