Description from owner
Description
Seafarers is a former HM Coastguard cottage, accommodating four guests. It is tucked away at the end of a private lane, with its own designated parking. Whilst retaining historic charm, the property is presented to an exacting contemporary specification; the versatile kitchen and sleek bathroom, combined with luxurious bedrooms, make it the ideal coastal bolthole. Taking inspiration from the sea, blues, greys, and whites flow through this stunningly transformed interior.
The redesigned garden makes best use of the south facing, elevated site with its far-reaching sea and valley views. Beckoning granite steps lead to sun trapped terraces, created for relaxation and enjoyment. Whether it's gently unwinding on a recliner, savouring a lazy al fresco lunch, or if clouds appear, retreating to The Lookout hideaway, this special space has it all.
The cottage offers versatile accommodation: in the second bedroom you can choose either a super king double or twin single beds. The property is unsuitable for children under nine and is non-smoking and pet free.
Throughout the season, reservations are on a weekly basis, with holidays commencing on Saturdays. Shorter breaks may be available during quieter times please contact us for details.
WiFi (BT Infinity high speed internet) which with Smart TVs gives you access to all the free TV catch up services such as BBC iPlayer as well as Netflix.
Seafarers has been recommended as one of the best self catering properties in Britain on Cool Places.
Guests returning within 18 months of their last stay are eligible for 5% discount - just mention the date of your last stay in your reservation e-mail.

“A comfy cottage with a splendid view.”
The cottage is enticingly near the harbour, which is a lovely place to watch life go by, but it is too steep a climb back again for older people.There are lots of interesting local shops. The Eden pro… More

Response from the owner Hi Sely, I'm delighted you enjoyed your stay with us at Seafarers so much. The cottage is very well placed for the village, but the real joy is the dedicated carparking space which is unusual for many of the cottages in the vicinity and so very much appreciated by all our guests. I will pass on your positive comments on the cleanliness to our housekeeping team who work hard to maintain this high standard. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Response from the owner I'm delighted you had such a lovely holiday in Mevagissey, it is a delight with plenty of places to explore and relax. As the cottage overlooks the harbour you can enjoy the views but are only minutes from being down in amongst the fun, while leaving the car parked just outside. We always leave thinking we could have done with "perhaps one more week" !! Hopefully look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Response from the owner Gillian, I am delighted you had such a good holiday and really enjoyed the cottage. Sitting just above the harbour does mean it only takes a few minutes to get down into the hustle and bustle of the village while also having the stunning views. The narrow roads are fine once you are used to them and as you say you just need to take it slow - but at least you can park a few feet from your front door. We would be delighted to welcome you back to Mevagissey and don't forget that returning guests benefit from a 5% discount. Happy memories! Neal

Response from the owner Hi Jason, I'm delighted that you and the family had another great stay in Seafarers. Obviosuly I agree that the views are great - just above the harbour and with carparking - a perfect combination. We had fish and chips down at the harbour last night while waiting to see the fireworks at the end of Feast Week and it was magical. See you next year.

Response from the owner We are delighted you had such a lovely week in Seafarers. It is great to be so close to the centre overlooking the harbour - although the walk can be steep on the return. We vary the return journey to go by "gentler" inclines!!

Response from the owner Seafarers is very comfortable in the winter - esopecially if there is a storm battering the harbour. Watching the waves break over the harbour while remaining dry and warm inside very satisfying. We're delighted you had such a enjoyable break in Mevagissey and look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Response from the owner I'm delighted that we have maintained the same great standard for your third visit. We love spending time in Mevagissey and Seafarers is, as you recognise, so convenient and with parking that "perfect" is the word we use frequently - but then we're biased. Don't forget that if you wish to visit for a fourth time, we offer returning guests (within 18 mths) a 5% discount off the weekly tariff. Thank you Diane.
