Mevagissey: a Cornish fishing village made famous by Rosamunde Pilcher

Deutsch-Übersetzung

Mevagissey is a  typically traditional Cornish fishing village, where you can wander the narrow alleyways, browse gift shops and art galleries. Once the home of the Cornish sardine fishery it still boasts a working fleet that bring in a selection of the fish that Cornwall is famous for.

Each year at the end of June, Mevagissey celebrates Feast Week, a week of family fun, music, and floral dances through the streets; ending in a carnival and  fireworks display.

Mevagissey is within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which along with National Parks, are considered to be the most special landscapes in the country and belong to an international family of protected areas.
