The name Mordros, meaning 'sound of the sea' in Cornish, aptly reflects its proximity to one of Cornwall's most picturesque spots, with breathtaking views of the turquoise bay visible from multiple sea-facing windows and a delightful Juliet balcony. The interior combines traditional elements like limewashed stone walls and polished wooden floors with soft blue tones and tasteful furnishings, creating a serene atmosphere ideal for relaxed coastal living.
The cottage is designed to accommodate up to six guests comfortably, featuring three well-appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which boasts a luxurious roll-top tub.

These amenities ensure that guests can enjoy a home-like experience while savoring their holiday by the sea.
Guests will find that their stay at Mordros is enhanced by its close proximity to Porthminster Beach, renowned for its Blue Flag status and stunning views stretching from St Ives harbour to Godrevy Lighthouse. The beach is an ideal spot for sunbathing, swimming, and relaxation, complemented by an award-winning café nearby. For added luxury, from February 2024, guests will receive two passes to the Harbour Hotel and Spa, which include discounts on food, drinks, and spa treatments, making it easy to unwind and indulge during their stay.
It is important to note that Mordros is spread across three floors, connected by steep internal stairs, which may pose challenges for guests with limited mobility.
