The Old Parsonage

The relaxed family atmosphere of this bed and breakfast in Mevagissey makes it an ideal place to stay when visiting Cornwall.

Ken and Tina offer a warm welcome to their mid-nineteenth century former vicarage, located in the centre of Mevagissey.

This is a very popular part of Cornwall and the B&B is a short, level walk from Mevagissey harbour and the village's busy main street.

Originally built for John Sampson Jago, a Lieutenant in the Royal Navy, [for the princely sum of £3,549.00 - a fortune even then] the building was acquired by the church in the 1930's and served as the vicarage until 1998.

Most of the original features have been retained to preserve the character of the building.

There are 2 double bedrooms with en-suite shower and toilet facilities, 1 of which is located on the ground floor, across from the dining room.

Double rooms can accommodate an additional single guest bed or travel cot if required.

The first floor 'Family suite' has a king-size bed with an adjoining bunk room and a private bathroom [not en-suite].

All bedrooms have central heating, colour television, tea and coffee making facilities.

A varied breakfast menu is available each morning, served in the dining room.

Guests can choose from traditional favourites such as 'The Full English', poached Finnan haddock and kippers, or a continental style breakfast.

All breakfast options are accompanied by a variety of fruit juices, fresh fruit, cereals, toast and preserves.
