Contained everything we needed plus a few little extras that were a lovely touch. Safe and secure garden for the dogs and a great base for all our walks. The owners were very friendly and helpful and Mevagissey has many dog friendly pubs/restaurants. We had a great time.

Access to the town within walking distance although the hill back up is challenging! Comfortable and we were able to use the wood burner which made the evenings very cosy. Overall a great base for exploring that part of Cornwall, and Heligan was just a stones throw away.
