Gorran Haven is a picturesque 13th century coastal village. A tiny cafe and even tinier shop sit at the bottom, at the edge of the coast, surrounded by a cluster of fishermen’s cottages, the oldest of which date back to at least the 1400s. Traces of an Iron Age fort can be found on Dodman Point, though we didn't see it. The secluded cove is way off the beaten path and I like it even more because of that! The walk itself is gentle, with only a few steep ups and downs.​

We change into rain pants and jackets on the bus. It's pouring but weather forecast says it won't last long.

Tiny lanes and houses and lots of flowers as we walk through the village to the coast.

This is part of the path. It heads to the top and then we cross fields and headlands

Walking down off the headland into Mevagissey.

Lunch by the harbor.

Pentewan up ahead; 1.5 miles away.

Back in Charlestown we drink ciders on the beach, then eat fish & chips on the harborside. Early bed tonight!
