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.

Getting here:- Gorran Haven is 20 minutes drive from St Austell, 35 minutes from Truro and 1.75 hours from Exeter. Local attractions:- Lost gardens of Heligan 10 minute drive, Mevagissey 20 minute drive, Eden project 30 minutes drive and Caerhays castle and Porthluney beach 10 minutes drive. St Austell with its supermarkets, swimming pool and multiplex cinema is 20 away. Truro with a good range of smaller interesting boutiques and most major high street shops is just 35 minutes away.

Easter break
We stayed in this lovely house at Easter. Gorran Haven is a lovely spot for exploring Mevagissey and surrounding areas and is 10 minutes drive to a favourite beach of ours - Porthluney and a bit further to Pendower which is another old favourite The house itself was fantastic, we had everything we needed for our stay and John was very helpful beforehand and easy to contact. We wouldn’t hesitate to return.

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.

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.

Arosa was the most perfect setting for all our family - so much space, beautifully renovated, lovely welcome gifts and great communication with John, the owner. The village of Gorran Haven is lovely with amenities including the best fish & chips! The house is close to brilliant beaches making it the ideal location. We will be booking again!

Amazing house
Wow is all we can say about this amazing house. The property was truly fantastic, from the large fabulous kitchen to the lovely bedrooms and ensuites. We had everything we needed and there was a lovely welcome pack which was much appreciated. Our Swiss friends were very impressed with the house and loved the location. We did find the walk down to Goran Haven beach and back up the hill again a bit of a struggle. The local shop had a large variety of goods and the bar next door was great. We would certainly book this lovely property again if we came back to Cornwall. I would definitely recommend it. Thank you John

Memorable Christmas stay at Arosa
Arosa is a beautiful cottage and was presented to us in an immaculate condition. Everything was spotless and matches the pictures in the ad. John was simply a star who was always reachable, and always accommodative of our requests. From the date of booking, till the date, we left John made our reservation a worry-free experience with his clear and detailed communication. Wi-fi was excellent, the fireplace was a nice add-on and we used it for most of our stay. all amenities you could think of are included, and bin collections were hassle-free. Having 4 bathrooms was a godsend with the size of our party, especially one with kids. We enjoyed every bit of our stay at Arosa and wouldn't hesitate to book the same place when we return to Cornwall.

Third time to Arosa…….we love coming back. Lovely house in an ideal location. Not far to walk to the beach. With a cafe, fish and chip shop, shop and a bar. The house is amazing - we travelled as 2 families and everything was excellent. Plenty of bathrooms and big rooms. We’ll definitely be back again.

We had a really lovely holiday. Gorran Haven is such a peaceful place. The only noisey neighbours were the rooks. We soon got used to those and even started to answer them back! We will highly recommend Arosa and would love to book it again in the future.

Perfect house layout for what we needed.
My wife and I were visiting from the states to visit family and the house was as described, and was exactly what we needed. An open layout with a nice big kitchen, dinning, living room area. Being up he hill from the village in was sunny and bright. Being half a mile from the pub in Gorran Church, and half a mile from the beach in Gorran Haven, it is a nice short walk either way. The store/post office/cafe is well stocked and has good coffee. We enjoyed the house and the village, a great location with easy access to the costal path.
