Until the early 1900’s this historic little cottage was the only property in Porthloo. Situated within a stones throw of the beach at Thomas Porth, known locally as Sharks Pit, and only two stone throws from Porthloo Beach, Taylor’s Island and Newford Island, Porthloo Cottage nestles down at the end of it’s own secluded garden and just looks pretty. It has to be said that the accommodation could not be described as spacious but there is comfortable space for four being accommodated in one twin and one double bedded room with a shower room on the same floor. The lounge has a wood burning stove and the kitchen dining room is directly entered from the front door.

Porthloo Cottage has the feel of an ‘off island’ location but is only a short walk from the center of Hugh Town and all the amenities and, to be quite honest, being so close to Sharks Pit it feels like you have your own private beach.
