Arts, Museums and Culture

Cornwall has a rich cultural heritage. We are 40 minutes from the Tate Gallery at St Ives and close to other art galleries and museums. There are year round theatre, music and arts events, at venues as diverse as the stunning waterside Minack Theatre, churches and Hall for Cornwall.

Gardens and Walking Holidays

The stunning Eden Project and many wonderful private and National Trust gardens, including Glendurgan, Trebah, Trelissick, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and Lamorran are close at hand.

Footpaths from the cottage are plentiful and the 13th Century Pandora Inn can be reached by a 30 minute walk on a scenic creekside path from Little Albion. Add the beauty of the Cornwall Coastal Path, the wilderness of the moors and picturesque villages; it is a wonderful place for a holiday.

Sailing, Maritime and Beaches

Mylor Yacht Harbour and Restronguet Sailing Club have been extensively upgraded and offer cafes, shops and all boating facilities, including boat hire and sailing school. We are close to the National Maritime Museum and Royal Cornwall Yacht Club at Falmouth. We are well placed to explore the surf beaches of the north coast and the quiet south coast beaches and creeks

The Area

Mylor lies within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is perfectly situated for exploring Cornwall, sailing, garden trips, creek walks and beaches. The village of Mylor Bridge is about a 10 minute walk and has an excellent village shop, newsagent, post office, butcher and fish shop (open when not fishing).
