September 2021

We spent five days at Pondokkie and absolutely loved it there. The house was very clean, quiet and well equipped. The best part was sitting on the terrace or in the reading room and gazing at the view of the sea and landscape which was stunning. There was a beautiful garden and good garden furniture with comfortable seat cushions. We only ate in the dining room once as we were lucky with the weather, but it had a large table with plenty of space. The beds were comfortable and the shower was good. There was plenty of space for us with two teenagers and my mother. Good WiFi! There were even body boards and extra wellies. It was a steep but manageable 15 minute walk to the town via the coastal path. Polstreath Beach was a favourite with a steep descent via steps, which was definitely worth it. The owners were nearby and very helpful, but never intrusive. They left us a delicious cream tea on our arrival. I highly recommend this property.

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!

Great family home with stunning sea views. Plenty of space in house for whole family and friends. Fully equipped kitchen and nice additional considerations made for dogs. Delicious Cornish welcome pack and owners next door were extremely helpful.

Pondokkie was as it said the village was nice , eating out had to be booked due to covid , fish and chip shops closed at 8.00pm. We had a very enjoyable holiday , walking to and from Pondokkie could take you about 15 mins.

Perfect views, delightful place to stay, we will be back.

For dog owners this is the dream holiday, towels, blankets, bowls etc all supplied.

The hosts were wonderful.

A lovely property for rain or shine, excellent for families. The hosts couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful. Definitely on the 'go back to' list

Wow ?? What a place! This house is amazing and certainly a five star accommodation.
The dogs loves the outdoor space and we loved the little snug / library room upstairs for peace and tranquility. Great location and friendly hosts.
We enjoyed it so much we’ve already reserved for next year.

We have just returned from a short break at Pondokkie situated on the hillside above Mevagissey with views across to Chapel Point. A car is essential to get around. We had a comfortable stay with very pleasant owners on site if needed. We can recommend.

Wonderful stay at Pondokkie. Fabulous views and amazingly warm and cosy property. We can’t wait to book again for next year.

Pondokkie is a fantastic house for families with teenagers. We all had our own space but also lots of space to be a family. The house is comfortable and provides everything you need for a home from home holiday. The views are amazing. Mevagissey is a nice traditional Cornish fishing village. We would all strongly recommend. The owners are the most delightful people; so generous and kind. They really care and help with plans for the day and night. Thank you!!!

Lovely house with sea views over the roofs of Mevagissey. Owners live next door and cannot do enough to ensure a wonderful stay. Fine terrace overlooking sloping garden. Dog friendly.

Pondokkie is an absolute delight and a credit to the owners Jo and Paul who were always on hand if needed but never imposing. The house is so comfortable and we immediately felt relaxed given the homely feel to the property. Views are memorable and location also excellent. We liked it so much we’ve already planned our return visit.

We loved it, have been visiting Mevagissey for many years and it was nice to find a a holiday let where we could take our dogs,have off road parking and such a warm welcoming place to stay with a great view. We would love to return.

We've had an amazing stay in Pondokkie. The house is lovely, with everything that you could ever need. And what has topped it off is seeing those stunning sea views every morning over breakfast. Tilly has loved running around the beautiful garden playing with a ball!

House was lovely and comfortable and in a quiet location. Great sea views. Walk back up hill takes about 10-15 mins for a relatively fit person. Owner who lives next door very welcoming and helpful.
