Catherine
The apartment had everything we needed. Luckily we were able to park directly outside as there was no one staying in one of the other apartments, which was perfect.Mevagissey is a gorgeous village. Despite lots of holiday makers around we found the apartment peaceful at night with the exception of the delightful seagulls.

The property is clean, comfortable and modern. Thereâs even a little outdoor seating area at the front of the property that isnât shown in the photos; bonus! Truan is a great host and is really friendly. He provided detailed information about how to access the property, where to park etc. The location of the property is brilliant; within a few steps of shops, bakeries, pubs and eateries. We were lucky enough to have a parking space on site for the duration of our stay, but the car park is only a very short walk from the property if this isnât available. There was nothing negative about the stay!
