About this property

Finest Retreats | Old Harbour Cottage

Tucked away in amongst the historic streets of Mevagissey town is Old Harbour Cottage, a gloriously stylish retreat with wonderful character and a cosy welcoming feel. With an unbeatable location just a few minutes walk from the harbourfront and beautiful decor to enjoy around you, this is the ultimate choice for a luxury seaside escape.

Inside, the kitchen-dining space is finished to a very high standard with chic cabinetry and integrated appliances. There is electric oven and hob, fridge with freezer space, washer/dryer, plus all the utensils and kitchenware you will need to perfect your favourite holiday recipes. There is also a highchair available for use if needed.

On the first floor, the main living room enjoys an elevated view over the streets below, with a generous corner sofa, smart TV and an electric feature fireplace, perfect for relaxing after a day of adventures and sea air.
There is also a fully tiled luxury shower room on this level, with double walk-in shower enclosure, basin and WC.

On the second floor are both bedrooms, continuing the high end finish with stylish furniture and smart décor. The front bedroom has a king bed, plenty of storage and views out over the town, whilst the second bedroom has two full size single beds with the option to be attached together to create a super-king size if required. This bedroom is generously sized and has an en-suite offering a second shower enclosure, basin and WC.

Locally, Mevagissey is fast becoming one of the most desirable seaside towns to visit in Cornwall, with it’s beautiful harbourfront and stunning views across St Austell bay. There is an excellent selection of pubs, restaurants, cafes and independent shops offering homewares, prints and paintings, clothing, gifts and much more.

There are some of the south coast’s most stunning beaches within easy reach of Old Harbour Cottage, including Pentewan Sands, Vault Beach at Gorran Haven and Porthpean.
The Lost Gardens of Heligan are within a 15 minute drive, and the world-famous Eden Project is roughly 20 mins away.

Location The rubbish situation was not acceptable, when we arrived the cupboard outside was full with rubbish from the previous guests, so we had to dispose of our rubbish at my parents.
