Cottage vacation rentals in Penzance

Lovely cottage in very rural surroundings well equipped and comfortable. Explored the area on bikes, quite hilly!!! Levant mine at Pendeen worth a visit

Fantastic location, a beautiful view to wake up to each morning. Beach/cafes/bakery a short walk away. Perfectly located for visiting the wider area on both the north and south coasts. Cottage well appointed for a comfortable stay.

Lovely cottage in a peaceful area. Very clean with everything and more for a family. Games room has table tennis, darts, toys and games, also more toys and board games in the chests in the bedroom. Our 2 year old grandson was well provided for. Including buckets and spades for the beach. Blackout blind provided was well appreciated for his sleep. Suzy communicated very well and set up the travel cot etc. Lovely touch was the welcome pack milk, wine, fudge and biscuits. Easy walk down to the train station, bus stop or down to the beach. Very steep walk back up but good exercise! No hesitation in recommended this cottage. Thank you for making it so welcoming.

Fantastic stay at Sophia’s. The place was great with lots of art by local artists on the walls and sculptures as well. Sophia left us milk, hot cross buns and butter - so welcoming and a very nice touch. Very quiet location and right on the edge of great walking over the old tin mines, literally! Just a 5 minute walk and on the cliffs with the sea pounding away. The pub was a short 5 minute walk, inviting and friendly.

Nic was very quick to respond to all my questions and gave perfect directions to the cottage. The cottage was absolutely perfect! Wonderful high ceilings, plenty of space for us, kitchen was well stocked with an absolutely lovely welcome basket that we enjoyed on the outside patio. Opening the windows and feeling the fresh air and hearing the sea was perfect. The bed was very comfortable; bedding and pillows were perfect. Nothing at all to say negative about the cottage. Literally perfect in every way for us. The center of Marazion was only a few minutes to walk to and had so much to offer. We truly enjoyed our stay here so very much and have fallen in love with Marazion and the friendly people. Definitely recommend and will plan on visiting again!

Lovely hosts, nicely appointed accommodation and comfortable, great location for walking and cycling, good pub within 5 minutes walk.

We stayed at James' Telegraph Cottage specifically to go to a production at The Minack Theatre: it was an excellent choice in so any ways! The theatre was within walking distance, there was a fabulous nearby beach, and walks were endless. The accommodation and James' hospitality were superb: both ensuites were new, the cottage was roomy with a quite large kitchen and the garden was a great asset for sitting and having an evening wine! James was always so quick to answer the questions we had, and emailed copious notes regarding finding the place, pubs and walks. Couldn't have been better in every aspect. We would like to return!!

We simply loved the cozy cottage up the hill with the wonderful view. We stayed for 5 nights and would have stayed longer if possible. The sea shore is only a short walk (~10 mins) away. From there, the beautiful coastal path takes you either south to the beaches and Land's End or north to Cape Cornwall and St. Just. The cottage is perfectly located for both fantastic hikes and serene time at home. Just one thing, I wouldn't advise to come by large vehicle. We had no other choice than going up with our van, and got numerous scratches because of the narrow road and the wild vegetation on basically every side of it (right, left, above). I'd always come back to this wonderful place, but in a small car. :)

My partner and I had a great stay here for a long weekend. The place was so peaceful and quiet but close to amenities. The bed in particular was so comfortable, something I find hard to find at Airbnb’s! Claire and her husband were such lovely hosts and even gave us some free home grown eggs for breakfast. Plus lots of local recommendations. The local is good for seeing both the north and south coast. Easy to get the train too if you don’t fancy driving. 100% would come back and recommend the others too!

Fabulous cottage with everything you need. John and Jane were great host, very friendly and helpful. There was a lovely hamper with all the essentials plus some tasty treats. Everything was spotlessly clean, including the hot tub. Perfect spot for exploring West Cornwall.

We loved our stay in this cottage! It has such a cosy homely feel and is equipped with everything you’d need! The bed was super comfy and it was nice to have a tv in both bedrooms and the living space! The hot tub area was gorgeous and a great place to unwind and relax, very private area! Shaun the host was super friendly and very responsive! We couldn’t fault this place - amazing value for money. Would recommend and would love to return in the future!

We had the most wonderful time.The location of the property is great for exploring and the setting so peaceful! The pictures perhaps did not do it full justice as it was even better!being in a bath over looking the countryside was next level! Clare was very clear on the whole process of how to get to the property,check in,ideas for places to visit and things to do.The personalised written message and goodies are special touches that mean a lot so thank you!cannot praise everything about our stay enough!we hope to be back!X

We had a lovely week staying at Calcite Cabin. The cabin is comfortable, peaceful and private with everything we needed. We loved sitting in the hot tub listening to the birds singing and our dog loved the enclosed garden. We enjoyed having the watersports centre on site where we used our paddleboard and hired one of the centre's kayaks. We also joined one of the swimming sessions, had a nice lunch in the cafe and watched tiny goslings on the lake. The site wardens were really friendly and helpful. We had beautiful weather so visited local beaches (Kynance Cove and Porthleven are stunning), Lizard Point and had Mexican food at Chimichangas. We also had day trips to the Eden Project and St Ives. We'd highly recommend Calcite Cabin to anyone looking for a peaceful, dog friendly holiday or those who like to be on the water. There's some heathland adjacent to the centre where dogs can be walked on the lead, and down the road is a nature reserve where dogs can go off lead.

We had a lovely few days here, the cottage is just as cute as it looks in the pictures. You can walk straight out into the surrounding woodlands and over to the nearby cliffs and there are lots of beautiful beaches to visit in the area. Also only half an hours drive to St.Ives. The cottage itself is full of character, beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The hot tub is a bonus. It's the perfect place for two newly weds!

This was our third stay at Nancy's House. Here are some of the things that drew us back: snug but spacious house that feels loved and lived in, peacefully tucked into a farm where interesting things always seem to be happening, and just a few steps from exhilarating open spaces; lovely hosts. Oh, and the hot-tub is very nice!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Stay in Perranporth! Loved our stay here — spotless, stylish, and super comfy. The location was perfect: peaceful, yet close to the beach and town. The hot tub was a real highlight, especially after long coastal walks. Great hosts — we’ll definitely be back!

We stayed at Mellinzeath 28 years ago for a week of our honeymoon, and decided to revisit for our anniversary. What a transformation! The property has been restored beautifully and sympathetically, and now feels loved again. Everything - the materials used for the fabric of the building, fixtures, fittings and equipment - is of excellent quality, and there are many little touches which make it extra welcoming. Even Obi, our dog, had his own welcome pack and a warm shower outside. This is a very special property in a tranquil, secluded setting, with nothing but the birds for company. Wish it had been like this for our honeymoon.....

An enjoyable stay in a secluded area. WiFi in the area is patchy, get ready to unplug from the matrix!! Friendly and helpful hosts with a lot of local knowledge. Would definitely recommend this accommodation. Ian Northampton

The cottage was both cosy and comfortable, just what was needed for our weekend break. The wood burning stove was an added bonus and made the cottage feel warm and snug on a very wet day. Both St Ives and The Minack Theatre were within easy reach. The cottage was very clean, with a good sized kitchen and sitting room. Lovely views from the back bedroom. The beds were very comfortable

This was our second stay at Sharon's barn and we will definitely come back again. It's in a great location, has all the bits and pieces you need for a week's holiday and is incredibly comfortable. the bed is very comfy and we slept soundly, waking ready for a walk to the beach for a swim.

We stayed at Blackbird Studio for five nights and really enjoyed it as our base to explore Cornwall. While the weather wasn’t the best, the house made our stay memorable. The views are really stunning and you have your own little English garden. St Ives and various dog friendly beaches can be reached within a couple of minutes. The house was even more spacious than expected and equipped with everything you need. Lorna made sure we arrived safely and was always on hand. As mentioned in the description, the driveway is very (very!) narrow, but we managed to get through for unpacking/packing and parked in the little carveout by the road on the other days, which was completely fine.

If I could give 10 stars, I would. Mary was such a gracious and wonderfully charming host that I would have loved to spend more time at her cottage. During my stay, Mary showed me the surrounding area, including a beautiful garden and her field, and Mary & her partner Charles also gave me a lift to a pub for dinner. Mary & Charles are both very knowledgable and I enjoyed learning about the history and geology of Cornwall from them!

Beautiful and very comfortable place to stay with lovely views across to Falmouth

We had a lovely stay at Polly’s cottage. The house was absolutely stunning, decorated to very a high standard but some really warm touches like beautiful wooden toys for the children in the front room and gorgeous coffee books to flip through over coffee. The pantry was well stocked, the beds were really comfortable. The local beaches are absolutely stunning, it was easy to fall in love with Sennen. Thank you Polly for a lovely stay
