YHA Boswinger was one of the first properties YHA bought in Cornwall. Originally it was two separate farm buildings but they have since been connected into one. The manager’s accommodation used to be three self-contained flats which were available for hire, but this has now been converted.
Manager recommends: Take a stroll down the lane to Hemmick Beach where you can enjoy a peaceful day of sea-swimming, rock-pooling, or taking off on stunning walks along the South West Coast Path. Or if you fancy something a little more challenging, why not try a cycle ride to Mevagissey, where you can admire the fishing boats in the impressive double harbour and cool off with a Cornish ice cream?
