About An Mordros

An Mordros is a small, family-run hotel on Peverell Terrace, high above the heart of Porthleven, run by Sandra and Russell. It has long been loved for its comfort, warm welcome and stunning sea views – and it holds a special place in our own history as the second business ever to advertise on Cornwall Online.

Today An Mordros offers self-catering suites, perfectly suited to two adults, overlooking the harbour and just moments from the coast. Return after a day out for sunset drinks on the patio and the sound of the sea through the open window.

  • Self-catering suites for up to two adults, with harbour and sea views
  • Minimum stays from two to four nights depending on the season – see current tariffs
  • Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am
  • Adults only (no under-18s); no pets
  • A few minutes’ walk down to the harbour, shops, restaurants and pubs

Porthleven & Mount’s Bay

Porthleven, with its historic harbour, is Britain’s most southerly working port and sits in the middle of Mount’s Bay – an ideal base for St Michael’s Mount, Land’s End and the Lizard peninsula. On the quayside you may still see fishermen landing their catch, mending nets or making crab pots.

A mile east lies Loe Pool, Cornwall’s largest natural freshwater lake, cut off from the sea by the shingle bar of Loe Bar – legend says King Arthur’s sword Excalibur lies at the bottom. The woodland paths of the National Trust’s Penrose Estate circle the lake, and the South West Coast Path runs right past the village. Helston, Penzance, Truro and Falmouth are all within easy reach.
