2a Coastguard Cottages
Offering some of the most spectacular views in Gorran Haven, this historic coastguard cottage is 3 minutes' walk from the beach, with parking for two cars and comfortable accommodation for up to 4 people in two king-size beds, or one king and two small singles. Located directly on the South West Coastal Path, the property is close to the heart of Gorran Haven village, its beach and quay. Here you'll find a friendly village shop, a tented al fresco bar, fish & chip shop and beachside café. On the ground floor you'll find a light-filled open-plan living room with log burner and two large sash windows looking over the front garden and surrounding coastline. The kitchen is well equipped with a Stoves range cooker and dining space for six. Off the kitchen is a wet room and cloakroom – perfect for sandy bodies just off the beach. On the first floor you will find: Bedroom 3: a walk-through room with single cabin bed suitable for a child. This room has a small workspace and can also be used for a travel cot. Bedroom 1 (accessed via the walk-through room): this master bedroom has a king sized bed, TV, large wardrobe and stunning sea views. Bedroom 3: A small bedroom with garden views.

On the stunning Roseland Peninsula, this 13th-century village is made up of a cluster of fishermen's cottages around a safe, sandy beach and historic quay, famed for its quay jumping at high tide. Gorran's two village beaches boast golden sand and are amongst the safest in Cornwall, ideal for the whole family, including dogs. Just 11 minutes' drive away you'll find the bustling fishing port of Mevagissey, where you can shop, eat and enjoy a local ale. Pay a visit and find out why people come back to this Cornish gem year after year.
