Gorran Haven 1.5 miles. Perfectly located for family beach holidays with a choice of three within walking distance, this charming character cottage is located only a half a mile along the adjoining footpath to the pretty fishing village of Gorran Haven, 3.5 miles from Mevagissey. All the family will immediately feel at home on entering this characterful cottage. Passing through the enclosed front garden you enter onto the first floor. There are three bedrooms offering a double, a double zip-link bedroom and a single all on the first floor along with the bathroom. On the ground floor are the cosy sitting room with open fire for the cooler evenings and the kitchen/diner with the feature being the warming AGA. A separate entrance from the shared courtyard garden provides direct access to the ground floor making it ideal for dog walkers. Gorran Haven is an unspoilt fishing village nestled around a secluded cove which remains much the same as in years gone by. The two sandy beaches here offer some of the safest swimming in Cornwall as well as giving you the opportunity to try kayaking with kayaks being available to hire. With dogs allowed on the beach (on leads between Easter and September, subject to bylaws) this really is the perfect family beach. After a day on the beach a small selection of cafés, restaurants, a pub and a renowned fish and chip shop offer a great choice of refreshments before wandering back to the cottage. A great location for family holidays all year round.
