The cottage is in a lovely quiet village.
The only thing to be aware (especially if you have young children), is that cars, trucks, and even a bus, do travel at relative high speed within feet of the front door and side exit, so keep an eye on small ones. However, thatâs not really a comment on the cottage which was lovely, clean and roomy with two reception rooms, and good sized bedrooms where up to 6 people could stay comfortably (we were a group of 4 so more than enough space). The beds were all comfortable and everybody slept well. The cottage is within 2 minutes walk of the local public house that serves food for 6 days a week, but not Sunday evening as theyâre closed. The garden backs onto a church graveyard so nobody overlooking. We visited the church and the graveyard and had a nice walk around. The garden provided plenty of outside space for relaxing, eating and drinking if you didnât want to sit indoors. There was a big umbrella to keep the sun (or rain!!) off. The location is excellent being only 4 minutes drive from the Lost Gardens of Heligan, and 15/20 min drive to St Austell and the supermarkets (ASDA and Tesco). Mevagissy was also very close. Eden Project was around 30 minutes drive away. We all had a wonderful week staying in Trelan. However, there was one (what we thought was minor as it didnât impact the holiday) issue that needs to be said⦠We read on a previous review that somebody had reported water ingress in the chimney breast in the main lounge. Whilst we were staying at Trelan it did rain a lot, and the wall in the lounge was literally oozing with water coming through the plaster in several places. We have photographs to evidence it. The damp patches were there for several days. In addition, the small snug sitting room had a musty smell that overtime became too much. We did leave the room window open when we were in the property to air it off, but the musty smell still persistent. Finally, when we got home we realised that all our clothes smelt quite musty which we think could only have come from staying in the cottage. Oddly, we didnât really notice it whilst there, apart from the smell coming from the snug. We recognise the cottage is probably old and accept sometimes issues like water ingress does happen especially when we get downpours like we had whilst staying there, but it seems such a shame on such a beautiful cottage that has been otherwise well maintained. The property owner did seem quite dismissive to the other people who gave feedback about the issue, but I hope this time they take it with the good faith the feedback is being given in.

Glanville House is in a superb position right on the inner harbour wall of lovey Mevagissey and has all you will need to make a very comfortable and pleasant stay.
You are literally a short stroll from the centre of this small fishing village, with plenty of choices for lunch and dinner, numerous pubs, lots of small cafes serving cream teas, an excellent small local store and veg shop, there are very good places to eat including two small niche restaurants, The Salamander and Alvorada, a lovely Portuguese establishment, while on the main quay The Sharksfin and The Harbour Tavern offer varied good quality menus in a convivial atmosphere, for take-away the Fishermans Chippy and The Fish Grill will not disappoint. The front entrance to Glanville House is on The Cliff, part of the Coastal Path, be aware there are two ways to reach the front door, we called them the âShort Legâ and the âLong Legâ, one is a steep sharp climb from East Quay, while the other is longer but a gentler rise from the Fountain Inn. The village is small, but it is surrounded by places of interest that all make for a very nice day out, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the Eden Project and Pinetum Gardens are all close by, and the fantastically quaint Charlestown with its tiny historical harbour is well worth a visit, and where many seafaring TV programmes have been filmed, including Poldark. We were very surprised to find old postcards of Glanville House dating back to the 1900âs, and to see that at least from the outside, it has not changed much, obviously the inside it has been modernised and refurbished, with large comfortable bedrooms, fully furnished living areas and a fully equipped kitchen, the external large open terrace was a real bonus, whilst it remains private, even though we are so close to the harbour quay. There were a few small minor niggles during our stay, a broken shower control, loose toilet seat, broken bedroom blind, but these did not in the slightest spoil our stay, although they could have been fixed quite easily, also felt the contact was very minimal, which is no bad thing, but almost felt impersonal, but do not let these influence you, this house will suit your every need in a holiday rental, we are sure you will not be disappointed, and this small fishing village is well worth the cost.

This was a lovely holiday home right on the harbour side with a real wow factor.
The positives were itâs location in the town, size and character. However there were a few issues which really detracted from our holiday; 1. The beds were really uncomfortable. This was reported a number of times by previous guests but clearly nothing done to improve it. We were a groups of 6 adults and we could not use the double bed in the 2nd floor bedroom due to the fact the mattress springs and bed movement made it extremely uncomfortable. This meant we had to use the twin beds which were not suitable for adults 6 feet tall and over. This was really disappointing and we felt let down by the owner and Cornish Cottages; 2. The property is described as having two showers, one over the bath. Whilst true, the one over the bath is not particularly useable as it had no shower curtains and was only part of the bath. Therefore 6 adults had to queue to use the only walk in shower on the 2nd floor; 3. The rear patio doors were broken and could not be properly lockedâ¦again previously reported but nothing done to remedy it; and 4. The property had a leak from the roof which caused puddles of water in the kitchen. The caretaker attended and admitted this was an issue that they were aware of evidenced by the water marks on the ceiling. They kindly left a bottle of wine as an apology. This is potentially a lovely property but needs urgent love and attention. We left disappointed as we paid good money expecting the obvious issues to have been resolved by either the owner or Cornish Cottages.

We have stayed at over a dozen Sykes cottages over the years and 4 Mowhay Cottages was by far the nicest!
It was spotlessly clean and it had everything we needed and even some things we didn't know we needed! The Aga was lovely and kept the house so warm during a couple of very wet and windy days. We appreciated having a washer and a dryer and wood/kindling for the fire. On our first day there the shower broke but, even though it was a Saturday, it was replaced while we were out that day! Fabulous service! There's plenty of parking by the cottage and the neighbours we met were all very friendly. Such a peaceful community. The location is perfect for the most beautiful beaches....check out Hemmick beach if you are brave enough to drive along the very narrow road. This secluded beach is breathtaking. Of course Gorran Haven harbour is wonderful (great fish and chips) and Mevagissy and Charlestown (fish and chips on the harbour are amazing!) are both lovely too. Caerhays and Carylon beaches were two of our favourites and all dog friendly which our terrier Fynn enjoyed. The Lost Gardens of Heligan are stunning and we can highly recommend the Sunday roast they serve. The farm shop there is wonderful too....try the apricot flapjacks if you're lucky enough to catch them while they are in stock. Very popular and sell quickly! We had such a wonderful week in Cornwall and we can't praise the cottage highly enough. Thank you x

It was a lovely cottage, well furnished, smart and homely, very clean, tidy and pleasant.
We enjoyed the overall experience and the hosts were excellent. We were greeted with 2 fresh scones with jam and clotted cream, greatly enjoyed. We only had a couple of minor issues, we discovered early on that a frequently used country road backs directly onto the house and therefore traffic noise was often. Being a snorer I slept in the single bed in the side room while my partner stayed in the double bed. She found the double too soft while I found the single too hard, however I don't class this as a complaint because everybody has there own preference. The other very minor point was in the single bed room there was no bedside cabinet so I just temporarily moved one of the two beside the double bed and returned it to its original place on leaving. We found the kitchen good and with everything you needed for a stay, the dining/lounge/TV area was great and the sofa particularly comfortable. Heating was all you needed, the shower was great as was the wash basin in the nicely decorated bathroom. Perhaps a small consideration would be blackout material on the stairwell curtains and single room. The overall decor was really lovely and made staying feel like home from home. And the surrounding countryside was refreshing too.
