Porthleven
is another fishing village, larger than Cadgwith, on the western
side of the Lizard peninsula facing across Mounts Bay. Its
harbour is a deep inlet from the sea, protected by three sets of
granite walls. The area around the harbour is very picturesque with
three pubs and several excellent restaurants, including Kota
famous for its seafood. The village is well situated for touring
the whole of west Cornwall and is an ideal base for exploring the
coast path and magnificent cliff scenery. There are lots of sandy
beaches and family attractions nearby. The adjacent Loe Pool is
the largest freshwater lake in Cornwall and offers secluded woodland
walks and plenty of wildlife. Only three miles away is the quaint
old Cornish town of Helston, notable for the Flora Dance. Restormel
provides one whole floor of a modern house on the side of the valley.
The garden and decking area have panoramic views out to sea and
across the village. It has its own access and parking. The nearest
beach and the village centre are both within five minutes walk.
