Lovely view of Mevagissey. Helpful welcome pack including scones, jam and clotted cream. Only criticism is the mattress was a little uncomfortable with springs sticking up in places. Everything else was wonderful. Be aware that there is a steep bank and steps leading to property but if you don't have any mobility issues then this is the perfect place to explore Mevagissey and Cornwall.
