Description:
Our country house hotel by the sea…
The spectacular cliff top location and 180 degree sea view
over St Austell Bay make The Porth Avallen really special. Originally a private residence it was converted to a hotel in the mid 1960’s and has gradually been extended to its current 28 bedrooms. A popular destination for holiday makers, it is the ideal base from which to
explore Cornwall and it’s many attractions.
The Porth Avallen was built by the Howes family in 1928/29. Surrounded at that time by farmland and fields the area boasted many impressive apple orchards after which the house and local beach was named.
Porth Avallen means Apple Bay in Cornish. Sadly Apple Bay itself is now inaccessible except by boat due to the ravages of time and the waves.
Many parts of the original house however do remain and the oak paneling in the lounge and unique stained glass window are special features.
The magnificent view is still unchanged after 75 years and it is easy to understand why the Howes’ chose this particular location for their family home.
The hotel is situated in a quite, private road. The south west coastal path is just yards from the hotel entrance and one is able to walk for miles along the rugged coastline.
George Abraham purchased the hotel in 2003.
The atmosphere is of a country house hotel with the focus on friendly service and good food freshly prepared using the very best local ingredients delivered daily.
The hotel has won awards for its dining and beautiful garden and is particularly proud to be highly commended in the Best Hotel category of the 2004 and 2005 Cornish Tourism awards.
We offer ample free parking in our private car park, disabled access to all public areas and free high speed wireless broad band access.
