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!

This is a really comfortable, spacious, well-located and well-equipped holiday home. The views of the coast and Mevagissey were stunning. We would definitely stay at this property again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the property to others.

We really enjoyed our stay at argel-lowen the apartment is spacious, thoughtfully decorated and very comfortable. The view from the balcony is spectacular and we enjoyed watching the harbour whilst benefiting from the peace and quiet of the apartment. We found Mevagissey itself to be very welcoming and friendly towards holiday makers.

Fabulous apartment and accommodation, great views with a relaxing aura about the place - absolutely superb !
