HOW O FIND US

By Car: Follow the signs from Helston to Porthleven. You drive past the boating lake on your right, up the hill, down through the trees and then at a sharp right hand bend you go straight on (signpost Loe Bar) then take the 2nd turning on the right which is Peverell Terrace. We are then 200 yards on the right. By Bus: When travelling from Helston or Penzance, get off the bus at the Harbour Head. Walking along the road at the left-hand side of the harbour, turn left up Salt Cellar Hill, Turn right at the top and Seefar is 200 yards on your left. The National Express coach also comes into the village daily. Walking from Penzance: When you walk into the village, you will see the 70 ft. high clock tower and we are situated on the terrace above it. Walk round the harbour turning right up Salt Cellar Hill, turn right again at the top and we are then 200 yards on the left. Walking from the Lizard: Walk into the village keeping the sea on your left all the time, until you come to houses on both sides of the road. Take the footpath on the right and at the top, go over the road, up the hill to the house, about 40 yards. By Train: Get off the train at Redruth where you should find a connecting Truronian bus. Catch the bus to Helston, where if you let us know the time you will arrive, we will meet you in the car to save you catching a further bus and having to walk up a steep hill with your luggage.

Seefar, owned by Janice & Frank Hallam, is a small friendly Guest House that lives up to its name.

It is situated above the picturesque harbour of Porthleven and only 100 yards from 3 miles of golden beaches.

We buy local produce where possible and adopt a sustainable tourism policy.

Bed and Breakfast Accommodation

All you can see from the bedroom windows are spectacular views of the sea, harbour entrance and stunning coastline.

All the bedrooms are centrally heated and have hot and cold water, TV's, hair dryers, radio, clock alarms and tea and coffee making facilities.

We have double and twin ensuite rooms and a single standard room with private bathroom, which has equally stunning sea views.

A full traditional English and vegetarian breakfast is served in our large sun lounge, so you can relax and soak up the scenery as eat.

There is a comfortable oak beamed T.V. lounge with a grandfather clock ticking away to lull you into our peaceful way of life.

Seefar is a family home, where even your dog is welcome if it is well behaved and you are greeted with a cup of tea when you arrive. It is a wonderful place to stay and tour the West of Cornwall and the Lizard peninsula area where nowhere is a great distance away.

Mount's Bay

The coastal area between Lands End and the Lizard offers some of the most breathtaking scenery in the country. On a clear day, the Lizard and Lands End can both be seen from our windows and in rougher weather, the views are just as impressive with the Cornish sea pounding below.

Porthleven

Is a small, unspoilt fishing village near the ancient town of Helston, which has inner and outer harbours sheltered by a granite breakwater. The fishermen's cottages built, of either granite or plastered brick, nestle together in quiet harmony with the occasional brilliantly coloured wall standing out in contrast, making it resemble some Mediterranean villages. Extending south from the harbour is an extensive beach leading on to the famous Loe Bar, which separates the beach from Loe Pool, Cornwall's largest inland freshwater lake.

The Loe Pool - owned by The National Trust, has extensive wooded walks along it's banks, with some of the finest scenery imaginable and is open to the public each day from dawn to dusk.

The village has small craft shops, an excellent selection of friendly pubs and restaurants, with some specialising in fish. It also has it's own Doctors surgery and chemist together with a supermarket and post office.

The harbour is a resting place for fishing and pleasure boats alike and where you can take pleasure trips along the coast or to catch fish for your Bar B Que. In the summer the Town Band plays on the harbour side every Sunday evening and various events take place on the Harbour Head, the biggest being Lifeboat Day and Gig Day.

Seefar in Porthleven is also an ideal resting place when walking the Coastal Path which comes into the village, winding it's way from Penzance or the Lizard. It is also the perfect place to tour West Cornwall and the Lizard area.
