Top Hotels Near Porthpean Beach in St Austell from AU$87

"All members of staff were so smiley and helpful. The chef was very supportive with allergies and worked out a menu suitable for dairy/soya free which was very kind and hopefully next time we can try it out as this time we are out. They cooked a beautiful dairy free breakfast for her. The breakfast buffet was beautiful and all delicious. The spa was amazing, loved the fact that no children were in there which made it a very relaxing experience. It is 10 minutes walk to a beautiful beach. The hotel is gorgeous and we will definitely visit again. "

"This is a really spacious 2-bed apartment, impeccably presented in a great area which serves as a great hub to drive to pretty much anywhere in Cornwall in under an hour. The hosts sent me good directions and lots of useful information before I arrived. On arrival, I was pleased to find a large, dedicated parking space and a garage where I could keep my bicycle during my stay. I immediately noticed how peaceful the location was. On entering the apartment, I was struck by the size of the rooms and the great view from the windows and two balconies. There is even a pair of binoculars, enabling you to spot the Eddystone Lighthouse, 24 miles out to sea! Essentials are supplied to get you started (toilet rolls, milk, tea, coffee) but there are several supermarkets (including Tesco, Asda and Lidl) within a 5 minute drive. Only half a mile away is Charlestown, a picturesque historic harbour which has pubs, restaurants, cafes (one which is open until 6pm) and craft shops. It is down a steep hill, so I was grateful for my e-bike on the way back! There is also a private beach, again down a steep path, which I had completely to myself on a Friday evening in late September! Check the tide times though - if you're unfortunate enough to arrive at the beach during the highest tide of the year (like I did at one point!), you'll find there is no beach at all! Low tide reveals a lot of rocks along the low-water mark, so take care if you're swimming. Thoroughly recommended!"

"The property was exactly where we wanted to be. Enough on the doorstep that we didn't need the car, but within reach of lots of lovely day trips. Perfect for families."

"This property is truly a gem and so is the little town of Charleston. The Studio is immaculately maintained and comfortable - you can feel the owners’ love and effort put into maintaining it, which is so rare to come by these days. Floors, bathroom and surfaces were spotless. The bed was warm and so comfortable. Amenities are as listed. Owner/host, Antonia, is a wonderful and lovely lady (I miss her already!). We had a slight miscommunication at time of booking, but she was so patient and understanding she won me over. I highly recommend this place. And if you do go stay here, please… please… please… be considerate and help maintain the property so that more people can go and enjoy this beautiful place."

"The house was in a perfect position for us to spend time with our family and to visit the local area The house was a good size for the 3 of us The only negative comment would be that there wasn’t any comfortable seating downstairs in the property, this probably would not be as important if visiting in the summer but was quite disappointing for a winter break- especially for my elderly mum"
