Cannot fault Valley Cottage - we utterly loved our stay! Touching distance of the beach and pub in heart of lovely little Portmellon, stunning coastline walks right on your doorstep; 10 min stroll into Mevagissey for crabbing, boat trips and plenty of cafes/restaurants/shops for all tastes. ‘The Shack’ open daily at the bottom of the drive of Valley Cottage offers fresh cakes, Cornish pasties and essentials (great coffee!), as well as sea kayak and SUP/ wetsuit hire - the area is quiet and unpretentious, with so much to do. We hardly needed to use the car whilst there which was wonderful. Thank you for the tips in the welcome pack!

The house is beautifully decorated and immaculate throughout, high standard appliances, furniture & comfy beds - rooms are light, airy, bright & spacious - it was so relaxing that we didn’t miss a thing from home. In fact, you’re lucky we came home - we wanted to stay for good ;)

Thank you for having us, we’ll definitely be back!

Holidays in Mevagissey

Stay in Mevagissey and you’ll be perfectly placed to explore all that the south coast of Cornwall has to offer. Take a ferry trip to Fowey, visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan or spend a day at the beach at the nearby Pentewan Sands.

Best known for its harbour and fishing boats, Mevagissey still boasts as being part of Cornwall’s thriving fishing industry. Fresh fish can even be bought from the hut on the harbour wall, located a short stroll from the village aquarium, once the lifeboat station. Wander around the harbour area, with its narrow streets, fascinating shops and galleries and recall its smuggling history, or just relax in the bars and restaurants and coves and on nearby beaches.

There is a ferry boat which runs from end of April to beginning of October from Mevagissey to Fowey three or four times a day (don’t miss the return journey!) – journey time about 35 minutes. You may be lucky and spot some playful dolphins!

Beaches near Mevagissey

Situated on the south coast, which is known for its balmy weather and beautiful blue seas, you won’t be short of beach days during your stay in Mevagissey.

Portmellon beach – Just over the hill from Mevagissey lies the pretty village of Portmellon with its perfectly sheltered, sandy beach. At low tide, you’ll find a fantastic stretch of sand ready and waiting for beach games, while high tide sees the waves lapping mere feet from the road.

Pentewan beach – A wonderfully large expanse of white sand that’s just down the road from the bobbing boats of Mevagissey, Pentewan is a stunning spot for some sunbathing and sea-bathing. You’ll also find plenty of opportunities for watersports, with windsurfing, kayaking and sailing all popular options.

Polstreath beach – Also known as Mevagissey beach, this pretty cove is a short coastal walk from the harbour of Mevagissey. The climb down might be on the steeper side but you’ll be rewarded with perfect swimming conditions and stunning views.

Gorran Haven beach – Alongside the gorgeous sandy beach at Gorran Haven, which is only a few miles from Mevagissey, you’ll find lots of lovely pubs and cafés where you can rest and refuel after a day in the waves.
