Just a spent a week with 6 adults and 5 kids at Porthcothan House over New Year, . It's an impressive, beautifully restored 6 bedroom house set back from the road behind private gates and only a short walk down to a stunning beach at Porthcothan. The beach comes into its own at low tide when a myriad of caves and coves become accessible and you get the sense of the scale and rugged beauty of the Cornish coastline. Owner Tim met us on arrival (those who had made it through snow!) to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. The house has a spacious open kitchen, dining room, and conservatory area with an Aga oven, though we ended up mostly using the Aga hobs. The two lounge areas gave us a space to break out into a multimedia room - essential PlayStations for the teenagers plugged into the TV, and a drawing room, for piece, quiet and a little guitar strumming. The bedrooms each had amazing bespoke beds as designed for the Savoy which gave us a long peaceful nights sleep, perhaps aided a little by the New Year food and drink. All in all an amazing place that exceeded everyone's expectations and somewhere definitely to come back to.
