Finest Retreats - The Hideaway - Studio Apartment in Porthleven

Great location, very close to the harbour. The studio is small but you get what you pay for! We found it quite cute :) It was definitely big enough for two adults and a whippet (no extra charge for a dog which is appreciated!) Bed is comfy but quite small.

Would be nice to have more hangers and a bigger chest of drawers. Please clean the shelf at the top of the bed/sofa as it is the only space to store luggage and it was very dusty and all the dust ended up on the bed after moving the suitcases around. Please be aware that the picture of the outside space is bit deceiving, it is just a couple of chairs in front of the main door with is on a side street. Make sure to bring an eye mask as there are no curtains and there two large glass panels which let it lots of light!

The location was good with easy parking.

The door didn't open and close easily. Shower kept going hot and cold. The room was cold on arrival. A security light would be beneficial to open key box on arrival. Overall very good accommodation.

good location , very clean

I left message with owners about a problem with the front door and the hot water but received no reply. Others have mentioned the bathroom sink being awkward to use for cleaning teeth, and although we had no problems parking the car I doubt that would be the case in the summer

A masterpiece of miniaturisation in a charming little ginnel in a lovely, and typical Cornish harbour town. Very well equipped and perfectly warm and comfortable.

The most serious drawback(no pun intended) was the lack of any form of curtain or blind at the full length windows either side of the front door and the window pane itself in the front door. This meant that ambient light from the town came into the studio at night. In high summer when the sun rises at 4:30 am, sleeping must be very difficult. And it would not be much of a problem to rectify. Also, we arrived in the dark and rain to be met with two rental cottages within 100 yards of each other, both going by the name of The Hideaway and each having identical key safes outside. We spent a long time trying to open the wrong key safe. Either the two owners of the two properties need to have a conversation with each other or this needs to be mentioned in the directions, which, unless you are using the What3Words app, does not take you to the obvious front door of the property. 

Close to village centre Takes dogs

Only 2 if everything so had to wash up even during a meal at times Getting the bed down and putting it away was a bit of a pain

The location was excellent and the studio nicely decorated the hosts had left milk biscuits all condiments toilet paper foil bin bags washing up liquid shampoo conditioner toothbrushes

It was ultra compact 4 metres by 4 metres in its entirety looked a lot bigger on photo, but it did state the size on booking, my fault entirely. it’s situated in a back alley not a private terrace as stated which unfortunately had a lot of dog poo, I was constantly having to pick each morning so I didn’t step in it, not the owners fault but up a back alley where the door entrance was there were uncaring selfish holiday makers surrounding us who just didn’t care. The pictures show a sofa and a bed but it is a small pull down sofa which turns in to a bed, very uncomfortable, it was very stuffy in the room as no ventilation so uncomfortable when warm weather, very poor small extractor fan in the bathroom which was insufficient and the towels get quite damp and musky after a few days shut in there.

Great studio with everything you could possibly need. Access to the property was nice and easy and walking into the local town was a few minutes away. The studio itself was lovely and clean very comfortable.
