The perfect Cornish fishing village, with winding cobbled streets and a 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, while just up the road are the Lost Gardens of Heligan. A ferry from Mevagissey to Fowey also runs daily between Easter and September. Spend some time at the Tall Ships harbour at Charlestown (7 miles) with its shipwreck museum, or among the tropical biomes of the world famous Eden Project (11 miles). The stunning coastline, fabulous beaches and renowned gardens of the beautiful Roseland Peninsula are a short drive down the coast while Truro, with its shops, restaurants, theatre and cathedral can be reached by car in half an hour.

Previous visitors' comments about The Retreat:
The property is beautiful and the photos and description do not do it justice. It was even better than we expected and we hope to return next year. The Retreat is the most relaxing and enjoyable cottage and I would recommend it highly.
Miss May, Fareham, November 2011
The house had a fantastic garden and hot tub. It was very spacious and well equipped.
Mrs Allen, Bromley, October 2011
Lovely accommodation and welcome from our hosts. We would definitely come again.
Mrs Best, Poole, September 2011
The owners were extremely helpful and have made a fabulous job in their restoration. The added bonus of having the hot tub and sauna was the icing on the cake, especially after a hard days sailing. Would, and have strongly recommended this cottage to loads of our friends.
