Lois & family
We had a lovely relaxed week at Seaview. The views and location to the sandy beach at Gorran Haven were just what we had been looking for. The living room was very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. The outside utility room was handy and useful for hanging wetsuits and storing beach toys. My son said his favourite place to sit was upstairs in the armchairs looking out to sea. There’s a very well stocked little shop in the village and an amazing fish and chip shop opposite the cottage. The parking in the village car park was easy to access (about a 5mins walk) and we were able to unload/load in the turning circle as advised by the owners. We would love to visit again. Thank you.

Having been to GH many times Sea View was just what we needed in an ideal location. We loved the views of the bay and the proximity to the beach. The accommodation is nicely laid out and the beds are very comfortable. The only thing I would change would be to provide towels.
