Our featured Cornwall cottages include this property in the centre of Marazion on the shores of Mount's Bay and the gateway to the enchanting St Michael's Mount, which rises majestically almost 230 feet from sea level to the tower, chapel and battlement of the castle. St Michael's Mount, approximately 500 yards offshore, is accessed by a causeway, once walked by pilgrims in honour of the alleged appearance of Saint Michael, which is revealed at low tide. At other times visitors are ferried from Marazion to the Mount in small boats. Marazion has sandy beaches facing St Michael's Mount with stunning views toward the Lizard Peninsula and Land's End, and a popular destination for windsurfing, kite surfing and sailing.
