About the home
Located in the heart of Mevagissey, and just a stone's throw from all the village has to offer, Myrtle Cottage is set back from the road in a pretty flowery cobbled courtyard.
Set over three levels, and "upside down", the accommodation comprises a master bedroom with super king bed and en suite shower/toilet, a king size bedroom and a twin with 2 single beds.
There is a large family bathroom with separate shower and the top floor kitchen/dining room has rooftop views of the harbour and sea.
The sitting room has an open fire, and leads out to a decked terrace garden with BBQ and a range of garden furniture.
Delightful rooftop views of the harbour, sea and village from top floor.
Local attractions include the world famous Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the historic tall ships town of Charlestown.
Mevagissey enjoys stunning scenery, cycle trails and unspoilt National Trust beaches. Unlike most villages, it is open all year round, and has some spectacular coastal walks.
The Mevagissey to Fowey ferry is a fabulous way to explore the dramatic coastline.
Refurbished to exceptionally high standards, Myrtle Cottage is just a minute's walk away from the harbour, where you will find an alluring web of narrow cobbled streets, craft workshops, galleries, shops, restaurants & cosy inns.

In the middle of Mevagissey (so difficult to park) , lovely , clean cottage with sun trap back yard. Everything you need for comfort and fantastically comfortable king size bed. Broadband appreciated by teenagers too. Well situated for walk to Heligan and along coastal footpath. Would recommend. Response: Thank you for your positive comments...... Myrtle now has her own Harbour Parking Pass, so parking isn't a problem, and just a short walk away. |
Guestbook for Myrtle Cottage
***I will definitely recommend Myrtle to friends, it is a great place to stay and the service we received from my initial enquiry onwards was fantastic, your regular up dates, great pictures and recommendations to the very great attention to detail of the cottage itself, including, after a long drive, the chilled bottle of wine!
***Wow! What a week! We loved your cottage - all so comfortable and clean with so many useful touches. You should be really proud of such a gorgeous place. Thank you for allowing the rest of us the pleasure of using it.
***What a beautiful cottage! A real find. .....I have to say the best cottage we have stayed in.
***Very welcoming - home-from-home. The whole cottage was a delight - oozing with character and thoughtful touches. Will definitey return.
***We already decided that we don't think we'll ever find a cottage as nice as Myrtle and a town as nice as Meva in Cornwall ever again, so we might well be back!
***We hope to come back soon as Meva is a great base for exploring all of Cornwall. Thankyou, Debbie, for all your attentiveness and hospitality - the cottage is gorgeous!
***Delightful! Warm, cosy and tastefully decorated. Shall certainly return --- soon.
***Fantastic! Enjoyed every moment.........The kids loved their rooms and all the interesting things in them Hopefully we'll return soon.
