MEVAGISSEY
The harbour is approximately a 5 minute walk away, where
fishing boats are moored in both inner and outer harbours. There are many
local restaurants and attractions of interest. Fishing has always been
important here and was responsible for the growth of the town from a tiny
hamlet in the 16th Century, to the village which we see today. The old
centre consists of very narrow, picturesque streets with a wide choice
of places to eat and shop.
During the summer months you can enjoy a trip on a boat
around the bay, or try sea angling. A ferry also runs several times a
day from Mevagissey to Fowey.
The Lost Gardens of Heligan,
one of the best loved attractions in Cornwall, is only two miles away
by car - and closer by foot or cycle path. The
Eden Project is also
not far - 9 miles from Mevagissey.
Places of interest in Mevagissey include the Mevagissey
Museum, World of Model Railways, Mevagissey
Harbour Aquarium and the Old
Pilchard Cellars.
Nearby there is the 15th Century Church at Gorran,
Polmassick Vineyard, Caerhays
Castle, Dodman Point,
also many sandy beaches.
The coastal footpath is easily accessible either from the
harbour or from a public footpath near the house which leads to
Portmellon. There are several
inland footpaths which could provide circular walks, which could be extended
by using the local bus network.
Also
available is a Seventeenth Century farmhouse wing near
Caerhays Castle,
in a quiet country location, five minutes drive from beaches, bordering
the Roseland Peninsula.
