    “Paul and I really enjoyed a wonderful week at Mariners Rest.”

    This ‘home from home’ is truly delightful: all the facilities we needed; a terrific location; and friendly locals always happy to stop and have a chat (gossip). Gorran Haven is a lovely place to live and stay on holiday, with so many attractive places to visit close by - Heligan’s gardens, Vault Beach, Porthluney Cove Beach, Mevagissey, the coast path, to mention just a few. The welcome pack was very … well welcome! A lovely host ensured our stay provided us with the break we wanted and ...

About the location

GORRAN HAVEN

Mevagissey 3 miles.

Once a crab fishing village, Gorran Haven on the south coast of Cornwall is ideally placed to explore the many beaches and coves in the area. Gorran Haven has a small sandy beach set behind a traditional sea wall, connecting with the longer Great Perhaver beach at low tide and is popular with families. Much of the coastline in this area is owned by the National Trust and is readily accessible from the South West Coast Path that passes through Gorran Haven. Within walking distance are a number of more isolated beaches and the 370 feet high Dodman Point, rising above Gorran, which is thought to be one of Cornwall’s most dramatic headlands, and the cause of many a shipwreck. From its gorse-covered heights there are views across Veryan Bay to the west and Vault Beach to the east. Alternatively, you may wish to walk the coastal path to the harbour village of Mevagissey. Near Gorran Haven, in a beautiful setting of woodland, stream and pasture, is Caerhays Castle, an informal 60-acre garden on the coast near Porthluney Cove. Nearby attractions are the wonderful Lost Gardens of Heligan, Eden Project, Wheal Martyn China Clay Museum and the cathedral town of Truro, with an excellent range of quality shopping and dining.
