Little Chyryn Perranuthnoe

Little Chyryn Perranuthnoe Overview

First Impressions

Perranuthnoe is one of those small Cornish villages that feels like it’s been quietly keeping a secret, and Little Chyryn Perranuthnoe fits right into that picture. Pulling up here, you immediately notice how unhurried everything feels — there’s no grand lobby or revolving door, just a genuine sense that you’ve landed somewhere a bit special. The free private parking on site is honestly one of those small things that makes a bigger difference than you’d expect, especially if you’ve ever tried navigating narrow Cornish lanes with luggage in tow.

Location & Neighbourhood

Sitting just off Saint Pirans Way, the property is tucked into a corner of Cornwall that couples in particular seem to fall head over heels for — and honestly, it’s not hard to see why. The beach at Perranuthnoe is only a short walk away, and it’s the kind of beach that doesn’t get overrun the way some of the more famous spots do. You’re also within easy reach of Marazion and the iconic view of St Michael’s Mount, which on a clear evening looks almost unreal from the coastal path. Guests have rated the location a perfect 10, and I mean, that’s not something you see every day.

The Feel of the Place

Little Chyryn Perranuthnoe has a character that’s hard to pin down precisely — it’s sort of intimate and personal in a way that bigger hotels rarely manage. There’s a quietness here that feels intentional, like the whole place has been set up for people who actually want to switch off. You get the sense that whoever runs it genuinely cares about the details, which comes through in the overall rating of 9.3 from guests. It’s the kind of score that tells you people aren’t just satisfied — they’re genuinely pleased they chose this place.

Who It’s Really For

If you’re travelling as a couple, this is honestly one of those finds you’ll want to keep to yourself. The location score of 9.9 for two-person trips says a lot — there’s something about the setting that just lends itself to that slower, more connected kind of travel. I mean, you’re in a quiet Cornish village, the sea is nearby, and the parking situation means you can actually explore the peninsula at your own pace without stressing about logistics. It’s well-suited to anyone who wants a base that feels rooted in the landscape rather than just dropped into it.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people talking about Little Chyryn Perranuthnoe is the combination of a genuinely brilliant location and an atmosphere that doesn’t try too hard. Cornwall has no shortage of places to stay, but finding somewhere that feels this well-placed and this well-regarded — without the fuss — is actually rarer than you’d think. The village itself is charming in a low-key way, the coastal walks are right there, and you come back each evening to somewhere that feels like a proper retreat. For anyone looking to experience the quieter, more authentic side of West Cornwall, this is a very solid choice.

Reviews of Little Chyryn Perranuthnoe

• Liz from United Kingdom – 1 June 2025 (9/10)

  Location was perfect for coastal walking and to the local beach. We had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

• Marielle from Netherlands – 27 May 2025 (8/10)

  Fijn klein appartement, schoon, fris, keuken van alle gemakken voorzien (oven, vaatwasser, magnetron, koelkast met klein vriesvak, föhn, handdoeken) en een heerlijk bed (weliswaar aan de smalle kant, maar dat is nou eenmaal de Engelse maat). Dorpje zelf is erg rustig, maar je kunt lopend naar het zandstrand(je) waar je ook wat kan drinken en eten. De locatie is als uitvalsbasis voor diverse prachtplekken in Cornwall prima, merendeel binnen ca 20-25 min. Met mooi weer lekker op je eigen terrasje zitten. Vriendelijke host!
  
  What could be improved: Het bankje in de woonkamer ziet er vooral leuk uit, maar zit belabberd. Dus hopen op mooi weer, zodat je lekker buiten kunt zijn.

• Guy from United Kingdom – 3 January 2025 (9/10)

  The property was very clean and in many aspects looked new, I was quite surprised to see feedback from guests as far back as 2020! It was comfortable, nice and bright with a very good view of the sea upstairs. A nice welcome of a bottle of Prosecco and cookies was appreciated. All the amenities worked well, parking was very convenient right outside the bedroom door, though reversing up the incline of the driveway might be a challenge for some drivers. Excellent for a couple on a short holiday.
  
  What could be improved: The spiral staircase is quite narrow would very likely present a challenge for anyone with limited mobility. And the sliding door of the shower room would benefit from fully-frosted glass to improve the level of privacy.

• Elmar from South Africa – 7 November 2023 (10/10)

  Great location, great place and great host
  
  What could be improved: Lovely area. Great fresh seefood in local town

• Neena from India – 3 August 2023 (9/10)

  Loved our stay here, lovely location, easy access around Cornwall.

• Lois from Switzerland – 30 June 2023 (9/10)

  Wir waren eine Woche in diesem Appartment und es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Sam, die Gastgeberin, war äusserst hilfsbereit und freundlich. Wir bekamen wie gewünscht auch ein extra Duvet und wir haben viele wertvolle Tips für unsere Ausflüge bekommen. Wir reisen viel und haben selten so ein sauberes Appartment gehabt. In der Küche war alles vorhanden, was man zum Kochen braucht. Ueberhaupt war das Appartment sehr geschmackvoll und stilvoll eingerichtet mit vielen schönen Fotografien von Sam. Wir haben viel auf dem Balkon gegessen von wo aus wir eine herrliche Aussicht auf das Meer und dass Dorf hatten. Die Lage war für uns optimal. Wir gingen viel auf dem Küstenpfad wandern und konnten direkt vom Hause aus loswandern. Zudem war es sehr ruhig. Kein Nachtlärm. Das Wifi hat super funkioniert auch zum streamen. Alles in allem ein wunderschöner Ort mit einer tollen Gastgeberin.
  
  What could be improved: Wie der Name "Little Chyryn" schon sagt war das Appartment relatativ klein. Im oberen Geschoss hat uns das nicht gestört, da war genügend Raum vorhanden. Unten im Schlafzimmer hingegen fanden wir es schon eng. Vor allem das Bett mit 140 cm Breite war für uns zu schmal. Man konnte sich kaum drehen ohne den Nachbar aufzuwecken. Das war das einzige was uns gestört hat. Sonst war alles perfekt.

• M from United Kingdom – 28 May 2023 (8/10)

  Great location, very clean, host was very helpful. Good local beach and local pub has great food.
  
  What could be improved: Somewhat not private enough, felt like sharing house with host, because there's a door ( locked) between bedroom and host's front door hallway, and another between apartment kitchen and her upstairs landing. Bathroom is not private at all, bathroom door is a glass partially see through sliding door that doesn't shut properly and most intimate toilet moments are going to be shared fully.

• Christopher from United Kingdom – 27 April 2023 (9/10)

  Exceptionally clean property. Very thoughtfully decorated and furnished with lots of added comforts.
  Beautiful, quiet and relaxing position near the beach.
  
  What could be improved: It would be useful to have a microwave included in the kitchen appliances.
  Everything else was perfect!

• Dina from Germany – 18 September 2022 (10/10)

  Die Wohnung ist mit viel Liebe eingerichtet und makellos sauber. Zur Begrüßung standen eine Flasche Wein und Biscuits bereit. Die Vermieterin ist sehr sehr nett und hilfsbereit!
  
  What could be improved: Nichts!

• Tim from United Kingdom – 28 August 2022 (10/10)

  The location is excellent, great proximity to the beach and the Coast path. Good pub in the village, everyone very friendly.
  
  What could be improved: Apartment is great, although bathroom is a little tight, and their could be a bit more crockery and cutlery in the kitchen.
