Looking for a little autumn magic in Cornwall this half term? 🍂✨
Our fourth October events post features two brilliant outings within easy reach of Porthtowan:
🌿 Kalan Gwav at Trelissick: 17 October–1 November 2026
Head to the National Trust estate for folklore-inspired displays and storytelling among the beautiful autumn gardens and woodland.
🔎 Agatha Christie’s The Hollow at Hall for Cornwall: 20–24 October 2026
Enjoy this classic mystery in Truro, around 30 minutes’ drive from Porthtowan: perfect for a culture-filled evening during your stay.
Then come back to the beach, warm up and enjoy those spectacular sunsets from your private balcony 🌅
Our three adjoining beachfront apartments (Whispering Waves in, Surf 'n' Sands and Sunsets in Porthtowan) each sleep up to 4 guests. Book all three for groups of up to 12 🏖️
Planning an autumn half-term break or a winter coastal stay? We offer stays from 2 nights, except during the summer school holidays when bookings run Friday–Friday. Friday after-work arrivals are ideal for avoiding Saturday traffic and gaining an extra weekend day.
