Situated in the small village of Gerrans in the Roseland Peninsula, adjacent to Portscatho on the East side, it is 7 miles south Southeast of Truro easy access from the A30. There is so much to do for everyone, from walking and cycling around the coastline to visiting well known sites such as St Mawes Castle built by Henry V111, one of the best-preserved coastal fortresses. Tickets can be purchased from English Heritage for those that want to explore inside. St Mawes is a lovely village on the Fal estuary well worth a visit with its small shops, local cafes and restaurants and pubs. If you go to the Harbour, you will see advertisements for boat trips to the Helford River, Smugglers Cottage, and fishing trips. Enterprise boats are the largest operator and offer a service around the river Fal where you can hop on and off allowing you to visit multiple places. Why not take your car on the King Harry Ferry connecting St Mawes and the Roseland with Feock, Truro and Falmouth? Truro is the capital city of Cornwall, cobbled streets, small alleyways leading to quirky shops it is a fantastic place to explore that is full of history. Visit the museum or Cathedral, take in a show at the Hall for Cornwall. You will be spoilt for choice with the wide variety of restaurants, cafes, pubs, and tea rooms ideal for relaxing during a busy shopping trip. Falmouth another town next to the harbour has a typical seaside feel, full of shops, restaurants, and bars it is also home to the Nation Maritime Museum well worth a visit. If you don’t want to cook, why not pop to the Royal Standard Pub in the square. You will be booking another visit as one is not enough to see everything. Beach 1½ miles. Pub and restaurant 125 yards.

A bit of challenge reversing into a tight angled carport. Otherwise OK

Cottage was clean. Lovely goodie box on arrival. Kitchen had a good selection of equipment. Location very good with two lovely local pubs and the beach was very near. If you are a walker stunning south west costal path. On your door step. As other people have said watching TV was difficult with the reflection of the sun through the windows. I would also say that the sofas and chairs are not particularly comfortable but you can’t please everyone. Car port was quite narrow if you have a wider make of car not sure you would get parked. There is a free car park in the village which would be fine if it’s fine weather but a bit grim in the winter. Having said all this we would stay again.
