After unloading, return to public car park approx. 300 yds going back up hill to your right. There is parking at the side of the house for a small car, but it is quite a tight squeeze and manoeuvring safely is difficult. It is also compromised weekly when enough space is required to get 4 wheelie bins past a parked car.
There are low banisters at the property.
There are large gaps between banister spindles.
Suitable for up to 1 pet

I'm really sad saying this, as this was a lovely cottage in superb location, but lack of cleanliness let it down badly 😔

A really lovely place to stay! Very pet friendly with a porch to dry our dog off before going in.
A really lovely place to stay! Very pet friendly with a porch to dry our dog off before going in. Unfortunately the weather was very wet most of the week. having a washing machine helped, but for a large family like ours, a tumble dryer would have made a huge difference. There’s no real parking at the property but the public car park wasn’t far away ( and only £24 for the week). The box of biscuits on arrival was very welcome too! Very well equipped for a family holiday and on the beach in less than thirty seconds- would really recommend 😀

Super break away in Gorran Haven.
Super break away in Gorran Haven. Simply a stunning little place if you want a complete break from the daily rush! The beach is super with the Mermaid Cafe perched on the edge supplying endless mugs of hot chocolate. The chip shop is a must and so is the nearby hotel, The Llandroc which has very attentive staff and delicious food. We will certainly be back to The Gables!
