Sea View

Sea View is a three-bedroom cottage in Mevagissey sleeping 7 with 2 bathrooms and sea views across the bay from the property. The enclosed garden is a practical addition for families and dog owners. Wi-Fi, parking, dishwasher, and washing machine are all included.

Pentewan Beach is 1.9km - a sheltered sandy beach at the mouth of a river valley with a large holiday park behind it. Mevagissey harbour, just below the cottage, is one of the few working double harbours in Cornwall: crab and lobster are still landed here daily in season, and the quayside has a good fish-and-chip shop. The Lost Gardens of Heligan are 3 miles inland on the B3273, a worthwhile half-day if the weather turns.

This property suits families or groups of up to 7 who want a harbour village setting with genuine sea views. Dogs are welcome. The south-facing aspect and enclosed garden make it functional in cooler months. Not ideal for those who need the beach on the doorstep - the nearest sandy beach is 1.9km, and the route from the cottage to Pentewan involves some road walking. 21 guest reviews. Friday changeover.

Gorran Haven, a small fishing cove with a sandy beach, is 3.6km south - a worthwhile 20-minute drive for variety. The Eden Project is around 6 miles north on the B3273 and gives a half-day option when conditions are poor. Mevagissey does not have a cashpoint or supermarket, so provisioning for a week requires a car trip to St Austell, which is around 4 miles inland. With 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms for 7 guests the layout works without bottlenecks.
