We have been fortunate enough to stay at Castaway several times over the years. It is always a pleasure to return - the property is consistently cleaned to perfection, with every home comfort you could need and most importantly, the views that you would never tire of. We have made a lot of happy family memories at Castaway and in Porthleven.
