Beautiful peaceful new restoration. Access on to the water either side of high tide on kayaks or paddleboard is a joy. Swans come to be fed at supper time. Amazing pasty company and organic veg stall minutes up the road. Mawgan stores also carries amazing stock range. Hired boats to go fishing from St Anthony. Lovely people and a great day. A forgotten corner of Cornwall. Didn't feel crowded at peak season. It was a restorative pleasure to stay....

This is a beautiful conversation of a boathouse in a gorgeous setting. A well equipped kitchen, good showers and comfortable beds make for a great stay. There is also a very efficient wood burner for colder evenings (like our current June weather!). We had a great stay - and thank you for the scones cream and delicious home made strawberry jam! Much appreciated! ...
