The thoughtful touches by the owner are acknowledged, enhancing the overall experience.

The majority of guests found Harlyn to be clean and well-maintained, with only a few mentioning areas where cleaning could be improved. The positive remarks about cleanliness far outweigh the negatives, indicating a high standard of cleanliness overall.

The location is generally appreciated for its proximity to local attractions and scenic views. However, some guests noted the steep hill when walking to and from the harbour, which could be challenging for some. The location is ideal for those looking to explore Mevagissey and the surrounding areas.

Some guests suggested improvements, such as the addition of a fridge/freezer and clearer instructions for heating. The presence of a garden and extra conservatories are positive aspects.

While some guests mentioned a welcome pack and found the owner's presence to be helpful, there are not enough references to gifts or additional thoughtful gestures to accurately score this category. It should be noted that while such gestures are appreciated, they are not guaranteed.

About this property

Situated on the easily accessible side of Mevagissey, this traditional, single-storey house sits in a quiet cul-de-sac, on the edge of the fishing village of Mevagissey. Light and spacious, and offering three bedrooms, one with an en-suite, this Mevagissey cottage provides a comfortable holiday home for a family looking to stay in this charming area of Cornwall. The sitting room with dining area is perfect for everyone to gather together, whilst the attached sun room and the separate conservatory both offer wonderful places to relax, perhaps with a book as the sun circles this homely Mevagissey cottage throughout the day. The picturesque quay is a popular feature of Mevagissey, where you find plenty of boats bobbing along the shore, and streets lined with gift shops, restaurants and bars, open all year round. For a complete contrast of scenery, within a short drive of this Mevagissey cottage are a number of gardens to explore, including the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the exotic blooms at the Eden Project and the charming woodlands of Caerhays Castle. Families will love to visit the various attractions in the area from the Shipwreck Centre in romantic Charlestown to the Wheal Martyn china clay museum and the World of Model Railways. Sandy beaches are plentiful in this part of Cornwall, and so from this Mevagissey cottage there is something for everyone to enjoy, rain or shine. Note: This property is next to Ref. 2919, together they sleep 7.

The perfect Cornish fishing village, with winding cobbled streets and a picturesque harbour full of boats. Stunning walks lead along the coast in both directions, with sandy beaches, high cliffs and hidden coves to explore. The village has an excellent selection of pubs and restaurants, whilst just up the road are the Lost Gardens of Heligan. A ferry from Mevagissey to Fowey also runs daily between Easter and September.

  • Stephen

    Harlyn is a lovely house, spacious and well maintained. Also, knowing there will be a welcome pack meaning you can have a cup of tea on arrival is, as always amazing.

  • Richard

    Everything you need for a relaxing holiday.

  • Lesley

    The property was comfortable and well equipped down to little things like supplying hand soap in the bathrooms. The walk from the village is arduous but as we love mevagissey it's worth it.
