Autumn and Winter in Mevagissey
Mevagissey is still just as charming in winter. Boats bob in the harbour and the cottages are beacons of colour along the quiet, winding streets. The fish and chips are still to die for and the pubs and restaurants glow with a warm welcome.
Wrap up for a walk on a beautiful, deserted beach. Enjoy tennis, golf, shooting and sailing on crisp, clear days. Make the most of Cornwall’s many attractions, including the Eden Project and St Ives Tate, when the maddening crowds are far away.
Polpier is a haven of comfort. Experiment cooking Polpier’s orchard apples on the Agas or curl up in front of a wood burner with a glass of mellow, red wine. Snooker and table tennis competitions, long, lazy candle-lit dinners and nights dancing in the disco.
Christmas is extra special with the Mevagissey’s colourful decorations reflected in the harbour. There are sparkling Christmas trees in both houses and the opportunity to celebrate in luxury and privacy with your friends.
What people say
Cornwall is its own entertainment
If the house isn’t enough, lose yourself in the Lost Gardens of Heligan or marvel at the Eden Project. Potter down for a pint in the quaint fishing village of Mevagissey, walk the coastal path, take the ferry to Fowey for fresh fish. Cornwall is its own entertainment.
