The Net Loft has lovely sea and countryside views and is warmed in winter by a log burner and night storage heaters. It has a large living area and 3 bedrooms and retains original features.
Portmellon is a small beach community, with a family friendly pub serving local beer and family meals. 15 minutes walk away is Mevagissey, a 14th century working Cornish fishing village. With its fishing boats, shops, galleries and restaurants lining the narrow cobbled streets, it provides a taste of the real Cornwall.
The Net Loft is on the top floor of a pre Napoleonic building. The building is set into a cliff and there is a climb up into the property from the private sea facing garden at the front making it unsuitable for those with limited mobility.
The garden is lovely for children and dogs but they must be supervised at all times as it is not fully secure i.e. there is a drop to the lane below. To fully secure it would mean loss of views.
Located in St Austell, this apartment is in a rural area and on the waterfront. Mevagissey Museum and Charlestown Shipwreck and Heritage Centre are cultural highlights, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at South West Coast Path Section 31 Trailhead and South West Coast Path Section 32 Trailhead. Eden Project and Mevagissey Aquarium are also worth visiting. Scuba diving and snorkeling offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails and cycling nearby.
