About this property

Amazing modern holiday home, EV Charger, family friendly, big garden 10min beach

The newly remodeled holiday home is situated on the edge of the beautiful seaside village of Gorran Haven in a quiet and pleasant cul-de-sac of detached bungalows. The completely restyled Arosa was brand new for summer 2018 and specified to a very high standard throught. The very large open plan living/dining/kitchen is perfect for relaxing with your family and friends. All the rooms are large, light and airy and three bedrooms have their own en-suit whilst the 4th has a separate family bathroom.
The two upstairs bedrooms have balconies with distant views of the sea. At the front there is a large raised terrace facing south to catch the sun during the day or for a relaxed meal in the evening.
The property is surrounded on all sides by its gently sloping gardens and faces south with tantalizing glimpses of the sea through the trees. There are lawns all around the bungalow with plenty of room for children to play and parking for 3 cars.

EV Charger - brand new Easee 7.4kw charger (use is paid for via the Easee app) will suit all cars with your cable.
I'm very happy to answer any EV Charger related questions, please contact me.

Inside there is plenty of space with the rooms decorated in a light and contemporary style and is all on one level. (There is just 1 step up to the rear door from the parking area.)

The safe sandy family beach and interesting harbour at Gorran Haven is just a 10 minute walk away and you can also join the nearby coast path allowing to walk to the harbours Port Mellion and Mevagissey a few miles away. The coast path in both directions is very beautiful and allows you to explore the area and discover hidden beaches and coves that are quiet even in peak season.

Gorran Haven has a fantastic local shop 'Cakebreads' which supplies all the essentials as well being a great little bakery with fresh bread each morning, in season there are also the mermaid cafe next to the beach, a fish and chip shop and a beach stuff shop for buying your buckets and spades.
For an easier option than walking with bags of beach stuff and young children there is on some on street parking just back from the beach in Gorran Haven out of season and a reasonably priced large car park in season.
The village pub “Llawnroc” has been fully refurbished and providing a lovely restaurant and bar overlooking the sea. A short walk up from Arosa is the village playing fields with tennis court and children's play area. If you walk for another few minutes you get to Gorran Churchtown with its pub the Barley Sheaf.

Travel:
St Austell has good railway links and you can get a local bus from outside the railway station through to Gorran Haven dropping off just down the road from Arosa. Nearest airport is at Newquay.

Beautiful Part of the World
We had a lovely, cozy and comfortable stay. It was close to local amenities and good for visiting beautiful parts of Cornwall. Convenient for the Eden Project. The house was clean, warm, comfortable and well equipped for our party of 4 adults and 3 children.

Modern, comfortable house
As soon as we arrived we were impressed with the space and cleanliness of the property. Lovely open plan living area which was ideal for our 3 generation family. Very well equipped and comfortable. All the bedrooms are spacious with very comfy beds and their own bathrooms. Gorran Haven is a pretty village and the walk to the beach and the coastal path was easy. Many other attractions in the area are easily accessible. John is an excellent host who responds immediately to any questions. We loved our stay at Arosa and thoroughly recommend it to anyone wanting to visit this beautiful area of Cornwall.

A splendid property in a lovely village
The property is excellent, spacious living area/ beautiful kitchen and stocked with everything required for 8 people in terms of preparing, cooking and eating meals. The bedrooms are large, 3 with en suites which suited our party of 8 adults. The village is a few minutes walk with a good shop/bar, fish and chip shop (including gluten free batter) with a lovely dog friendly beach. We had an excellent week.

About the host

Hosted by John Greenslade

Host profile image
I live in the south west of England with my wife and two children.

Why they chose this property

My mothers family has lived in Gorran Haven for a number of generations so all my childhood I heard stories of this beautiful Cornish village by the sea. I have owned Arosa for about 9 years and rented it to families each year. About 18 months ago embarked on a major remodeling project to transform the property into a modern, spacious, luxurious open plan house that I had always dreamed about and this is finally being completed in May 2018.

What makes this property unique

We love visiting our cottage in Gorran Haven as we can spend lots of time in and out of the sea a short walk away and know there is a fantastic hot shower waiting for us at the end of the day
Arosa is a large modern property with plenty of room to relax with your family and friends and a good sized safe garden for children for children to play and only a short walk to the beach and coastal paths.
You are close enough to the beach, shop and pub whilst still being in a side road that stays quiet even in August.
