Area Porthallow is situated on the east coast of the Lizard peninsula, an area known for its natural history, especially geology and plants. Along the coast, to the north, is Gillan Creek and the Helford River, and to the south is the village of Porthoustock, and offshore The Manacles, a great hazard to shipping and a popular diving site for shipwrecks. The beach is privately owned with access open to all and consists of pebbles at the higher reaches and sand at low tide. It was once the scene of a pilchard fishery.
Region Cornwall's visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain's premier holiday destinations.

We loved the cottage, spotlessly clean, well equipped, very comfortable and we loved the unspoilt nature of Porthallow and the proximity to coast path, beach and very good pub.. It suited us perfectly

Cockle Island Cottage is everything you would want for a relaxing week away.. The cottage is lovely and cosy and the welcome tray is a enjoyable bonus. We have been to the Cottage once before and hope to make a third visit sometime in the future.

Beautifully clean cottage, superb location - just 2 minutes walk to an unspoilt beach which was really safe to swim in.. Lovely garden made it feel like home.
