“The cottage was complete with everything you could wish for and it was set in the heart of Mevagissey.”

We would highly recommend this accommodation as you are not only surrounded by Mevagissey's beauty, but are in an idyllic location to visit Cornwall''s attractions

“We packed our wet weather gear and headed to Mevagissey.”

We found the cottage and car park easily. We were able to drive down to the cottage to unpack the car. The car park is literally just around the corner. The cottage was well presented and exactly as described. It had everything we could possibly need. The bed is really comfortable and showers were lovely. The cottage was always warm and cosy but we still lit the Woodburner most evenings for that extra bit of heat and effect. We were a lot closer to the harbour than we thought and it was literally a minutes walk. We walked the dog around the harbour every morning. There are several pubs and restaurants close by offering great food and drinks. We can highly recommend the Ship Inn to any dog owners. This is the most dog friendly pub we have been too. The staff were very welcoming to us and especially Arnie (9 month old lab). Mevagissey as a whole is a lovely welcoming place and all very dog friendly, we took Arnie to most places. The Fisherman’s Chippy is great for the obvious. Mevagissey is a great location to go exploring and we were able to do something different every day. Although the weather was rubbish it didn’t hinder our holiday and we had a great holiday and will definitely go back. For dog lovers.... we didn’t have an issue and got by easily. Thanks all Regards The Shepherds

“A great location in the heart of Mevagissey.”

Backlet cottage has been beautifully renovated and had a modern but cosy feel. Plenty of utensils etc in the kitchen but not needed too often given the great range of pubs, restaurants and cafes in the village. Would definitely return.

“Backlet cottage was perfect lots of thought has gone into making it comfortable and homely all the extra touches show how the owner cares about the visitors and their experience.”

The house has been beautifully restored and decorated. The position of the cottage is ideal being moments away from the harbour but also extremely quiet at night,Certainly hope to return.Many thanks

“The only reason the cottage met our expectations is because we went there last year.”

We all had a wonderful stay and are thinking of booking next year. A beautiful cottage with a homely touch. Couldn't find fault!
Mrs Law August 2019

“A lovely cottage in the centre of Mevagissey close to the harbour, shops, pubs and restaurants.”

Well presented with great facilities, the cottage was ideal for our family with the teenagers occupying the second floor where they could use the WiFi or watch Netflix when we weren’t out and about exploring Cornwall. You can park up outside to unload and load your car and a permit for Willow car park (5 minutes walk away) is included for your stay. We all had a fab holiday exploring gorgeous Cornwall - thank you!

Well equipped and tastefully decorated it has been thoughtfully renovated with attention to detail and quality fittings. Very close to the harbour, shops and pubs and our favourite was the Fountain Inn. A range of walks straight from the door step made for a great time for us all.

The property

This tastefully furnished terraced cottage is situated in the heart of the Cornish, fishing village of Mevagissey.

It is ideally located for the shops, pubs and restaurants as well as the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the wonderful coastline.

You will feel immediately welcomed on entrance to the cottage, charmed by the homely and luxurious furnishings inside.

Set over three floor, this is the ideal getaway for a family or group of friends looking to escape the usual routine.

On ground floor, you will find a sociable open-plan living room with slate floors, a cosy woodburner adding warmth to cooler evenings and a well-equipped kitchen.

Relax on the sofa with a glass of wine or a hot cup of tea or gather at the dining table for a hearty meal - truly making yourselves at home.

A staircase leads up to the first bedroom, where a choice of a super king-size double or twin is offered and the shower room rests next door.

Climb up to the second floor where a king-size double bedroom has the added benefit of its own en-suite facilities.

This thriving village offers bundles of character with narrow streets and winding alleys.

Choose from many restaurants and shops, or simply stroll by the harbour to watch the fishing boats drift in with the daily catch.

Between the Easter period and the month of September, you can take a ferry from Mevagissey to Fowey and spend some time exploring its history.

Explore the famous Eden Project and even travel further afield to the delightful town of St. Ives.
