Gorran Haven Beach

The West Country / Cornwall region

Cornwall is well known for its unspoilt sandy beaches, stunning cliff walks, beautiful rolling countryside and mild climate, making it a perfect destination for a family holiday. It is also famous for its attractive gardens; among the most notable are the Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan, where many sub-tropical plants thrive.

For those wanting a faster pace to there holiday try the bustling night life of Truro, with its many shops and restaurants. Boat trips run from Truro down the river Fal to Falmouth, with its spectacular docks and natural harbour.

With its extensive coastline; Cornwall is well known for its many picturesque harbours and fishing villages; a testament to its maritime past, mining and china clay industry. Cornwall is steeped in history from castles, gardens, to the industrial ruins of the tin mines.

Cornwall has something to offer all year round, whatever the weather.

The Gorran Haven area

The main attraction to Gorran Haven is its large sandy beach, small harbour and clean waters. People fish from the quay and nearby cliffs. Seasonal boat trips operate from the harbour or from nearby Mevagissy. Boat moorings can be rented from the local Fishermen’s Society who owns the harbour.

There is a convenience store with post office, newsagent and bakery. Fresh bread, pasties and pastries are still baked on the premises. There are also a number of seasonal cafes, gift shops, a hairdressing salon and a fish and chip shop.

The South West Coastal Path passes through the village and hugs the spectacular cliffs that surround Gorran Haven. Walk north to Mevagissy with its picturesque harbour and streets and south to the Dodman Point; owned by the National Trust; and on to the beautiful sandy beach at Caerhays. There is a community bus running a regular service and special trips. A scheduled service runs to St. Austell via Mevagissy and to the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

“A home from home.” The photos do not do this property justice. It is bigger, spacious and more comfortable than you would think. Mayfield is more like a family home than a holiday home. Very clean with surprising extras such as playingcards, dishwasher salt and soft toilet tissue.The beds are made up for you and if you order a supermarket food delivery for when you arrive you can start relaxing straight away. As a disabled person I found it easy to get around the property and enjoyed watching the many birds that live in the neighbourhood from the windows. With the underfloor heating and conservatory on the sunny side of the house, its lovely and warm even when it's cold and rainy. This was my second visit and its as lovely as I remembered.

“Very spacious,comfortable and immacuately kept.” We were all very impressed how beautiful it has been kept,as well as being superbly equipped and very comfortable. Although you haven't got a sea view(only from the top bedroom window) it more than made up for the lovely peaceful evenings sitting in the conservatory. It is only a short walk to the beach which was good excercise after the lovely fish and chips and the cream teas you can get by the beach. We will definately be visiting again.

“Fanatastic property in a beautiful location.” Property was very clean with everything that you could possibly need. Very thoughtful and helpful owners. Extremely comfortable sofas and beds. Coming back to the cosy underfloor heating was bliss. Quiet, peaceful location. Friendly local people (especially if you fish in the harbour). Lovely coastal walks, not for the faint hearted or if you have a fear of heights! Large parking area was a bonus. Walk to harbour/beach is not far at all. Village shop sells most things including tasty pasties and cakes (with friendly staff). The only minor thing was that some outside storage would have been useful (for roof box and fishing rods as they had to stay on the car). Had a memorable week in a perfect house.

Just to say how lovely your bungalow is. Mayfield exceeded our expectations, large, warm and comfortable it made our family holiday in Cornwall a memorable one. I wish we could have stayed another week, did not want to go home.


Thanks Chris & Karen. August 31 2010
We had a lovely week at Mayfield, the house was modern, clean, spacious & comfortable-and only a short walk to the beach. It was great to have the enclosed garden where the kids could play safely, I'm sure we will be booking the house again in the future.

I think we have found the perfect place to stay at Mayfield, clean,welcoming and so relaxing .
Mayfield is definitely a home from home would recommend to anyone, although I'd prefer to keep as our secret holiday retreat.
