The first floor consists of a double bedroom with harbour and sea views, and a small shower room with wash basin and toilet. On the top floor there is a light and airy sitting room with exposed rafters, with sofa, TV, DVD player, bluetooth wireless speaker and ipod dock, and great views over the harbour and sea.

Had the most wonderful stay at Handspan Cottage in Mevagissey. Such a beautiful property in a perfect location with spectacular views. I will definitely be coming back here. Thank you so much Helen and team! Aug 24
We have spent a lovely couple of weeks staying at Handspan Cottage; we loved being just a short walk from the shops and restaurants, and you get used to the calls of the seagulls after a couple of days! We did lots of walking and got the ferry to Fowey, and were lucky enough to see dolphins! August 24
What a lovely little cottage you have, we've loved staying in it. Perfect location around the harbour. The views of the harbour are amazing. Mevagissey is my favourite place. I've many memories of this place, so we certainly will be back. July 24
