Overlooking Portmellon Bay, on the coastal road, and 50 yards from a sandy beach, this restored 18th-century holiday cottage offers cosy accommodation in the heart of a traditional Cornish seaside village. It is situated on the ground and first floors of a small group of properties (below balcony in photograph) and the sea is only 5 yards away!

Ideally situated for the Eden Project near St Austell, 7 miles, with the Lost Gardens of Heligan, one of Cornwall’s most popular attractions, 2 miles. Shops ½ mile, seasonal pub 50 yards.

We loved staying in this gorgeous little cottage which is right by the sea.
We loved staying in this gorgeous little cottage which is right by the sea. We didn't have very good weather for our week in Cornwall but the cottage was so nice, peaceful and relaxing it didn't matter that we spent more time inside than we normally would do. The location is wonderful and you are only 20 minute stroll from the pubs, cafes and shops of Mevagissey. It was so nice to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of waves gently lapping the rocks below the bedroom window. No complaints whatsoever. Thoroughly recommended!
