Location
Gorran Haven is a cheerful and friendly small village half way down the south coast of Cornwall. It is very much appreciated for its two sandy beaches and small harbour with quay. In summer the beaches team with families enjoying the sea, stream and rock pools. In winter it has an entirely different aspect, much quieter and sometimes wild and stormy. All year the scenery is truely lovely.
There is a single main shop - Cakebread's - which is open all year and is the mainstay of the village being the bakers, grocery, off licence, newsagent and post office and run by the ever smiling Barbara Noott. Great pasties, friendly staff and well stocked shelves.
In season there are several other shops: a fish and chip shop and a beach cafe, a small cafe restaurant and the newly refurbished Llawnroc hotel and bar, which also has a first class restaurant. In Gorran Churchtown- a mile inland- the Barley Sheaf pub (also recently refurbished) is a lovely Georgean building sensatively brought up to date. It has a pleasant garden, comfy bar and home cooked meals as well as pasties and pints of good local St Austell ales.
The Lost Gardens of Heligan are 6 miles away and the Eden Project is about 10. Both are perennial favourites with visitors and locals.
