Well appointed. Large enough for a party of ten adults. Excellent position with good sea view.

We had a very enjoyable week at Westerly. Excellent space and accommodation for a large party of 10. The views are amazing. Very good position for exploring around. We enjoyed the coast to coast bike ride, even in the rain! The children enjoyed the local beach, and spent much time playing in the garden. A holiday to remember.

We couldnât have wished for a better house or a nicer place to stay for our family reunion of 4 generations. Westerley was clean and comfortable and well equipped. The layout of the house meant everyone was able to have their own space if they wanted to, but at the same time the large living room and dining area were spacious enough for us all to spend time together. It was such a treat to wake up to such amazing views every morning and the sunsets were to die for!! Portreath is in easy walking distance so was perfect for early morning dog walks on the beach before calling at the baker on the way back for fresh bread for breakfast. After long drives to get there, we didnât want to venture far afield, so weâre happy to find other fantastic beaches and coastal walks very close by. A perfect family holiday - many thanks!

What a superb house! Positioned on the cliff-tops overlooking the bay of Portreath - with views from every window. The house was extremely well equipped in all areas and we wanted for nothing. Perhaps the greatest advantage was the layout of the house, which allowed our extended and large family to enjoy each others company but to still have the individual space as and when was needed, incidentally this was all on one level too The age range of our party was from 9 weeks to 91 years of age and everyone had the most amazing and special time. Thank you Westerley you did us proud! We shall hopefully return!

Just spent a week here and had a lovely time. House is amazing, big and spacious. Amazing views over Portreath. Good location and loads of parking. Would 100% recommend

This was our 2nd time staying at this beautiful property and it remains as stunning as ever, it is large enough for multiple families to holiday together whilst still having pace to spread out, the children loved the large living room and spent lots of time up there leaving the adults to enjoy the spectacular ever changing sea views from the kitchen and puzzle room. The walk down to the village is short and the pubs there are both lovely, we enjoyed superb pasties from the bakery and braved the sea a few times for some body boarding. The house is very well equipped and very obviously loved as its full of games and books so plenty to keep busy folks entertained. The home office was a lovely spot so we could continue to keep our business life ticking over as necessary but also close the door on it without having to pack it all away. Would highly recommend a stay here and we will definitely be looking to return.

Our family of 10 aged 21 to 87 enjoyed a great week at Westerley. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. What a glorious view at any hour of the day.. Very well equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our holiday. We spent most time in the sun room and sitting at the table looking at the sea
-
First impressions count and as we all drove into Westerley, there was a collective wow. Those first impressions were built on, as we explored the house and its amenities. Then, the fabulous views of Portreath Bay. We just couldn't fault the house at all and the kitchen and its hardware were exceptional... The beach provided endless fun for all the family and only a fifteen-minute walk away.
-
A large well equipped property with lovely sea views.
-
This is a fantastic house overlooking Portreath bay. We had our breakfast most mornings taking in the views. In the evenings watching the sunset. Ample parking for family cars. A great base to venture off to different Cornish locations. We had a fantastic time making lovely memories during the week. Plus some great meals at various pubs and restaurants. Games room, drying room and great amounts of space with every bedroom having an en-suite.
-
This had everything promised and more. The views have to be seen to be appreciated fully - absolutely stunning. The house had everything, was spacious and comfy with plenty of room for everyone and a short walk to a lovely beach. Not far to travel to loads of places and great walks on the doorstep. I would recommend and didn't want to leave!

Westerley is in a great location with fantastic views across the beach. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. We were a group of six so had plenty of space. We never really used the sitting room as we spent most of our time in the sun room and kitchen/diner enjoying the views through the huge windows. The washing/drying room was useful, particularly when coming back from the beach with wetsuits that needed drying. We never found time to use the games room, although we did do some of the jigsaws from the good selection of games in there. The decking area was great and we loved sitting out there with a coffee or glass of wine enjoying the view over Portreath and the coast. There are some lovely walks along the coast which you can do from the house, which makes it so much easier when you don't have to drive anywhere and find a parking space.
-
This house was perfect! It had so much space and also secluded areas where you could chill out. A beautiful beach so close to the property, overall an excellent stay!
-
The property is a real gem. Loads of space and very well fitted with modern equipment. Spectacular views of the sea and harbour. Comfortable and very spacious. Would highly recommend!
-
Fantastic house with fabulous views over the bay. We watched massive waves from storm Dennis as he battered the coast in the comfort of the large kitchen and sun room. Even the games room had spectacular views over the bay. Would definitely stay here again.Hard to prize yourself away to go exploring as the house is so fab!
