  • "Second visit here."

    Lovely property. Great to have 2 parking spaces and a hot tub. Having 3 bathrooms is a bonus. Quiet location and a short walk to the beach and coastal paths. Look forward to returning again in the future.

  • "Lovely accommodation, great location, enjoyed our stay."

    Hot tub was a hit! TV only had sound no pictures. Need a mirror near a plug socket somewhere.

    Thank you for your feedback, we're pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay. Apologies for the issues with the TV, we have now replaced this. We look forward to welcoming you at Garras in the future. Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely holiday."

    The property was spacious and very clean. Was an added bonus having the hot tub and 2 allocated parking spaces. Wi-fi signal was excellent so ideal for streaming etc. Also nice being a 10-15 minute walk away from the beach. Local fish and chip shop is worth a try, need to pre order online though. There are a few things to feedback though. Two king rooms are not zip and link, they are 2 single beds pushed together which needs correcting on the listing, this did impact my sleep a bit. Downstairs shower door was very stiff, so not easy to open and close. We couldn't get the hob to work and there were no instructions. Pans were rusty and need replacing.

Benefitting from a hot tub, open-plan interior and close proximity to the local amenities and coast, Garras welcomes eight guests to enjoy a truly memorable getaway in this lovely area of Cornwall.

Park up off-road and enter your new home-from-home, ready to take the weight off your feet in the inviting sitting area, clicking on the Smart TV to relish some light entertainment as you other half gets to grips with a range of appliances in the well-equipped kitchen.

Rustle up a delicious home-cooked meal, before setting the table and making base, toasting to your fun-filled getaway over a cold glass of bubbly; if you’re looking for some much-needed R&R, head outside to take a dip in the hot tub, ideal for soaking your tired legs at the end of a long day.

While away the evening playing games or planning your itinerary for the days ahead, or retreat to the sleek bathroom to freshen up before hunkering down in one of four charming bedrooms, catching your beauty sleep in preparation for another day of adventures.

In the morning, kickstart your itinerary at Porthtowan Beach, spending time relaxing on the beautiful sandy beach, paddling the clear waters or trying your hand at surfing.

Lace up your walking boots and head out on the South West Coast Path, explore the scenic trails and soak up the breathtaking views that surround you.

If you’re looking to immerse yourself in the local history, why not visit the mining site of Wheal Coates, situated on the cliff tops near Chapel Porth, a National Trust site offering stunning vistas and a glimpse into Cornwall’s mining heritage, or learn even more at Blue Hills Tin Streams, with the opportunity to have a go at traditional tin panning.

Spend the day in St. Agnes, home to the St. Agnes Museum, St. Agnes Head and Chapel Porth Beach or travel further to the secluded Trevellas Porth, a cove known for its crystal-clear waters and peaceful atmosphere.

With so much to do and see nearby, experience all of this and more at Garras.

About the location

PORTHTOWAN

St Agnes 4 miles; Portreath 4 miles; Truro 9 miles.

Porthtowan is a small village resting on west Cornwall’s beautiful coastline, renowned for its Blue Flag beach, which at low tide exposes almost a mile and a half of fine, golden sands. Fringed by impressive granite cliffs, the beach is a popular surfing venue and is lifeguarded during the summer, making it ideal for families. Porthtowan is part of the St Agnes designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and there are some wonderful walks to be found, offering vivid scenery along the South West Coast Path, whether you choose to head east to St Agnes or west to Portreath. The towns of St Ives and Penzance, with their art galleries, restaurants and quaint harbours, are half an hour’s drive away, whilst Flambards Theme Park, The Cornish Seal Sanctuary in Gweek, and the Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station are just a few of the other diverse attractions scattered around this picturesque region. A great base for a varied family break.
