Only 9 minutes from the attractive old town of Marazion, which is a popular destination for beach holidays. The town is most famous because of the island and castle of St Michael's Mount, which is still lived in by the St Aubyn family. The island can be accessed at low tide by the causeway or by ferry at high tide. The tower and battlements of the castle stand 230 feet above sea level, and the island hosts a harbour, shops and restaurant. Mounts Bay is absolutely stunning and offers clean sandy beaches and safe bathing. A short distance along the coast is Perranuthnoe which boasts the oldest inn in Cornwall. It also has a wonderful sheltered beach which is popular with families.
Penzance is just a 15 minute drive away. Every June, Penzance holds the Golowan (Feast of St John) & Mazey Day celebrations. This week long celebration attracts many visitors and traffic is banished from the centre of Penzance during Mazey Day when the streets become lined with stalls and hold colourful processions. From Penzance harbour you can either catch a ferry to the Isles of Scilly or travel to the islands via helicopter from Penzance Heliport. The sub tropical gardens of Morrab are definitely worth visiting.
We had a brilliant time... the cottage was lovely, well situated and clean.... we would visit again... thank you

I have never stayed in such a beautiful and peaceful place.
As soon as I arrived I could feel my stresses floating away. This is the perfect tonic to my hectic London life.

What a great position. I'd recommend staying here to anyone.
