Description

Waverley is a delightful dormer bungalow with sea views on the outskirts of Mevagissey, Cornwall.

Set in a quiet area overlooking a grassy common and a sea view of St. Austell Bay, this dog-friendly, family-friendly holiday home makes the perfect escape.

On arrival, find ample roadside parking just outside the property and make your way through the front courtyard and into the home.

Once inside, you can find a sitting room enjoying the sea views, home to a TV for your evening entertainment after a busy day of exploring.

From here, the kitchen/diner has all you need for a self-catering stay, along with a handy washing machine for freshening up clothes and towels after a day at the beach.

When sleep calls, choose from three neat bedrooms; a king-size rests on the first floor, while the remaining double and single lie on the ground floor, making Waverley a convenient choice for a multigenerational group!

Serving the bedrooms is a sleek shower room where you can wash away the sand or prepare for a day out.

To the rear of the home, you can also find a private courtyard, inviting you to savour your morning coffee in the fresh air.

Waverley has easy access to the coastal path which runs within yards of the cottage, meaning that Polstreath Beach can be reached by a short walk.

Mevagissey harbour is just a stroll away from this lovely Cornwall cottage and you will find plenty to amuse the family, including an aquarium, a model railway centre, shops and cafés and of course the hustle and bustle of a traditional Cornish working harbour.

There are plenty of attractions within an easy drive of Waverley including, Caerhays Castle, the UK's only mining heritage centre at Wheal Martyn, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Charlestown Shipwreck and Heritage Centre.

Of course, Cornwall is also home to many safe, clean beaches and welcoming pubs, making this Waverley a wonderful base for an active family holiday.

An enjoyable week in a clean and comfortable dormer bungalow.

Good location and excellent sea views. However, albeit that the holiday home was described as having ample parking available, this was not the case. Yes, there were numerous parking spaces, but 95 per cent of the time they were all occupied. On arrival, we had no place to park our car.

Lovely holiday property with brilliant outdoor public space in front of the cottage, on a direct path into Meva and the coastal path, and next to a small play park.

Comfortable and spotlessly clean with far reaching sea views. One double bedroom upstairs (steep steps) and a single and double downstairs. Shower, toilet and sink downstairs. No dishwasher but kitchen well provided for otherwise. Outside table and chairs in secluded back garden (slabbed) and only suggestion would be for a bench at the front to be able to take in the views with some fresh air. The key thing for us was the very strict rule to not leave the dog alone in the property. This should be much clearer BEFORE booking - there is nothing in the property advert indicating this as a requirement. If we had known we likely would have booked elsewhere as it’s not always practical or preferable to take the dog out (or have to stay in the property). If it’s been an issue previously for the owners (given there’s already a yappy dog that lives nearby) they should perhaps reconsider allowing dogs at all. Overall a lovely stay and a very much appreciated welcome basket (thank you) but the dog restrictions should have been much clearer in the property description to enable visitors to make a more informed booking.

We have stayed in Waverley for approximately 7 years (twice a year).

It never disappoints. Everything is to our needs. Very clean. Lots to do in Mevagissey. We have booked for 2027 already in Waverley. That says a lot.
