About this property

This dream detached cottage, with amazing far-reaching sea views is set in the small, picturesque, unspoilt fishing village of Coverack on the Lizard Peninsula. The cottage is ideal for families or groups of friends looking to enjoy a coastal holiday with the village being built on two sides of a spur of rock that juts out into the sea. With a large, sheltered crescent shaped arc of sand ideal for swimming and watersports only a few minutes’ walk away, this is a very special cottage in a wonderful location. Tucked away off the main road through the village and approached up a narrow lane, the moment you arrive you know you are at a most relaxing cottage full of character. Entering with a small snug room on the right with a welcoming woodburner for the cooler evenings, you also have the dining room, kitchen and utility room on the ground floor. Taking the stairs leads to the most spectacular room in the house, the large sitting room with the most amazing views. Many a day, whatever the weather, will be spent in this attractive room marvelling at the views and relaxing with a drink in hand. There are three beautifully-furnished bedrooms here, two king-size double rooms and a twin. Outside is a most unusual garden with sitting and relaxing options all around, and boasting more outstanding views. Right from the cottage there are glorious coastal walks, and with the beach so close by days spent without the need for a car are definitely called for. A stroll down to the Paris Hotel on the harbour offers great local ales and a good choice of food, and along with other fine small restaurants and shops this coastal village offers all you need on a daily basis. An excellent cottage for a memorable seaside break.

The fishing village of Coverack is on the Lizard Peninsula in South Cornwall, a few miles from Lizard Point. Coverack is away from the hustle and bustle of Cornwall's main tourist areas and has a small beach where swimming and surfing can be enjoyed. Enjoy superb sea views from nearby Lizard Point or invigorating walks on the South West Coast Path.

    Weather was superb, which helped enjoy the walks around Coverack, but at the end of the day Pretoria was a lovely house to return to. Very well appointed inside, with exceptional artwork for a holiday let.

    Downside is not being able to park to unload or indeed park outside the property but this is explained in the arrival info. Any issues we had were quickly dealt with by the owners - thank you.
