“A fab stay. The apartment was perfect for 6 adults. Perfect for swimming every day, coast walks and easy to walk to all the great restaurants. The apartment is lovely and quiet as well. Couldn’t fault our stay.”

“Spent a week in this lovely apartment with my husband and two teenage daughters. The apartment was really spacious, clean and very modern with everything we needed. It is an incredible location too - just a short walk (8-10 mins) from the town and a few minutes from Porthminster beach. The views from the apartment were stunning, especially from the top floor balcony. We were blessed with lovely weather too. Chris answered any questions almost instantly- so helpful! We would love to return!”

“We had a lovely stay at this apartment. Fantastic location next to the beach and just a short walk into Falmouth. The view from the balcony was absolutely superb. There was a co op conveniently located below the apartment and a decent bar/restaurant just over the road overlooking the beach. Cannot fault the apartment as everything was as per the photos and the beds were really comfortable. Great place to stay and thanks for having us.”

“The apartment is very spacious with plenty of space to relax, eat and drink plus a great outdoor space and view. The kitchen has everything you need, it was lovely to find a quality kettle and toaster. The wardrobes were roomy with plenty of hangers. The welcome biscuits were gorgeous! Also really nice to have recycling available in the bin store. Would definitely recommend and book this place again.”

“We have just returned after a week at Pine Cottage, great location for travelling to Lowestoft and Gt.Yarmouth. The house has everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were nice with clean bedding and the towels were clean too. The house was presented nicely and cleaned to a high standard. The garden is very nice and actually bigger than the photos suggest. Overall id definitely recommend staying here, Chris was great too, he responded quickly both of the times i asked something. Thanks!”

“This was one of the best Airbnb we have stayed in (and we have stayed in over 50 in the last 3 years). We had a very small issue that was taken care of immediately. The appartement was spacious and very nice. You are in walking distance of the harbour and the beautiful town of St Ives.”

About us

A family-owned business

The Marino family, owners of Cornish Coastal Holiday Homes

The properties we market are owned by the Marino family, through our company Blue Square Property Holdings Ltd, unless otherwise stated. We manage each home ourselves, so when you book direct you deal with the owners, not an agency.

We bring care and attention to detail to every booking: clear written terms, prompt replies and no surprises. We fell in love with Cornwall over 25 years ago and have been welcoming guests to the coast ever since.

We genuinely enjoy what we do. Our aim is simple: spotless, well-equipped homes, a warm welcome and a stay you will want to repeat.
