The wider area also offers a wide variety of visitor attractions, including the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Tall Ships Harbour at Charlestown – all of which are within a 15 minute drive. The fishing harbour at Mevagissey is also nearby and allows visitors to take a passenger ferry across the bay to Fowey, just five miles away.

There are also a couple of steps in the hallway and into the downstairs shower room/wc. Ask the property owner for disabled aids if required (ie. Toilet booster), we didnât think to ask until the end of our stay and Julia produced this and couldnât have been more helpful, a super host. Maybe a couple of photos on the website of the hallway and a floor plan to help people assess whether it meets their needs would be a good idea.

The house was a great place to stay. The children loved the swimming pool and jacuzzi. The games room was also very good. Plenty of nice beaches and villages to visit in the area. We took our bikes so it was a beautiful bike ride alongside the river to Pentewan sands, just a steep hill to get back. The owners were always very helpful. Thanks to them for a great holiday

8 adults and 4 children, there was plenty of room for us all. The pool and jacuzzi were a big hit and as we were blessed with amazing weather the children made good use of the garden at the front. Itâs a well stocked kitchen with plenty of cooking pots and pans, utensils, plates and cutlery. The quality of furnishings and bedding gave a luxury feel. A lovely welcome pack was waiting for us on arrival. Julia was a fantastic host and am already looking forward to when we can stay again.
