Mevagissey Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
village and civil parish in Cornwall, England, UK
About Mevagissey
Enjoy time wandering around the harbour and the shops, eating Cornish pasties or ice cream (a recipe for a heart attack, according to a local GP!) There are restaurants and pubs, and it's a good base for visiting local attractions such as the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden project. There's a large car park as you enter the village which is a good place to stop since the lanes ahead get quite narrow and busy, especially in the Summer months. The winter months are also a great time to visit, especially over New Year where everyone dresses up in fancy dress and wandered between the pubs. Mevagissey is pronounced 'Mevagizzey', with the stress on the penultimate syllable, i.e.gizz.
