Harbour Retreat

About this property

Set in the heart of Mevagissey where the harbour, beach, shops, pubs and restaurants are all only a few minutes easy walk away this beautifully renovated charming old cottage is ideally placed to enjoy all this magical village and thriving fishing port has to offer. Set over three floors the cottage exudes character throughout. Enter into the cosy yet contemporary open-plan living room with a log burner at each end, ideal for the cooler winter nights after a long walk along the adjacent coastal path or a stroll on the beach.The utility room then leads out to the enclosed courtyard.On the first floor are two of the bedrooms, a king-size and a adult bunk bedroom as well as the family shower room. On the second floor a flight of steep stairs lead to the beautifully decorated master double bedroom to complete the accommodation. Dogs are so very welcome here with baskets, bowls and blankets provided along with an outside tap in the courtyard for washing down after coming back from the beach. With a such a wide choice of things to do here for all the family, virtually on the doorstep you will very rarely need a car but close by are the Lost Gardens of Heligan voted one of the finest tourist attractions in the Country and well worth a visit. Boat trips from the harbour itself are also strongly recommended. Just one of the many pubs and restaurants close by is the oldest pub in Mevagissey, the Fountain Inn located just 25 yards away where apart from good food and fine local ales every Monday is the home to the famous Mevagissey male voice choir. Come and listen to sea shanties and local songs for a night to remember. With so much to do and see in the immediate vicinity this character cottage offers really comfortable accommodation in a wonderful seaside location.

With winding cobbled streets and a harbour full of boats, the village of Mevagissey is the epitome of a small, Cornish fishing town. This quaint little settlement boasts sandy beaches, high cliffs and hidden coves in addition to a variety of walks which lead along the coast in both directions. The town is also home to a selection of pubs and restaurants whilst the nearby Lost Gardens of Heligan offer an excellent day out. Between Easter and September, visitors can enjoy a ferry ride between Mevagissey and Fowey, or spend some time at the Tall Ships harbour at Charlestown.
