Property information

Welcome to Porthole Cottage, a classic harborside property nestled in the picturesque Cornish town of Mevagissey. Perfect for accommodating up to four guests, this charming cottage serves as an ideal home base for exploring the labyrinth of narrow streets adorned with numerous pubs, cafes, galleries, shops, and restaurants. The delightful nautical theme that permeates the property perfectly captures the essence of its coastal location. Enjoy comfort with plush sofas, a smart TV, and Wi-Fi—ideal for unwinding after a day spent at the nearby beach. The modern, well-equipped kitchen awaits for those who wish to dine in or cook up the day's fresh catch! Upstairs, two inviting bedrooms—a double and a twin, along with a modern family bathroom featuring a shower over the bath, basin, and WC. Within Mevagissey guests can discover some excellent eateries and bars, where you can indulge in local delicacies such as scallops, crab, or mackerel. Spend the day at beaches nearby, where water sports, ice creams, and refreshing swims in the clear blue waters await. As Mevagissey remains a working fishing village, consider venturing onto the water with one of the many sightseeing or fishing boats to explore the breath-taking Cornish coastline. We also offer Old Harbour Cottage, situated next to Porthole Cottage, which can accommodate an additional 4 guests. If you're interested in booking both properties for a larger group, please don't hesitate to contact us. For bookings and more information please contact Finest Retreats!
