About this property
Coverack 1 mile. With magnificent, far-reaching sea views, this beautifully-presented end-terrace cottage is set in the stunning grounds of Coverack Headland on the spectacular Lizard Peninsula, only a short distance away from the unspoilt fishing village of Coverack and its wonderful beach. Entering the cottage you will sense the homely feel, with a comfortable sitting room and open plan kitchen and dining room. There are three bedrooms, one double and two singles and a bathroom all on the first floor. Outside there is a private patio with a picnic table which leads on to the attractive communal grounds, a great spot for a picnic and then down to a sandy beach. With no WiFi to spoil the peace and tranquillity of the surroundings, this really is a place to relax and unwind. With wonderful coastal walks in either direction, as well as a delightful path leading down to Coverack, this really is a place to enjoy to the full and appreciate the natural surroundings. In Coverack itself, a traditional Cornish bar and a choice of restaurants will satisfy all tastes and a short drive away will offer an even wider selection hidden amongst tiny coves and villages that combine to make the Lizard Peninsula such a special destination all year round.
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.

The views are stunning and the grounds around the complex are worth exploring. My sister-in-law loved the view from her front bedroom window with the passing boats and ships. Our six year old grandson loved taking me around the little paths. The kitchen is very well equipped although I could have done with a roasting pan! Managed fine with what was available. Thank you to Rachel and Sean for the welcome card and delicious biscuits. Although my sister-in-law is somewhat arthritic she managed the stairs ok, thanks the handrail and the bannister, albeit slowly. We loved having the beach just a short walk away and our grandson couldn't wait to go down to jump the waves! It's a nice walk to Coverack along the coast path and we saw some of the Regatta events. Good Fish 'n chip shop in Coverack too! We would definitely recommend Seaview for a relaxing or active seaside holiday whatever you prefer! We hope to come again sometime. Angela and family.

The cottage was clean, well stocked with all the equipment we might need both in the kitchen and living room where there was a selection of books, games and dvds alongside lots of tourist information leaflets. I spent a lot of time enjoying the view from the front bedroom out to sea. The cottage is set in a beautiful background with well maintained gardens around it and lots to explore. The nearby sculpture park is a nice easy stroll away, free to go around and dog friendly. We spent a lot of time walking along the coastal path exploring, swimming in the sea and watching seals on the rocks. There is a beach at low tide only 10 minutes walk away. Coverack is a beautiful village with a large dog friendly beach, good essential food shop, cafe, pub, chippy and restaurants. This is a good place to stay with lots nearby to do and also lots a short drive away. We felt very welcomed as soon as we arrived with the gift of some lovely cookies a pack of playing cards and a beautiful local card with a message on it left by the owners. Definitely will be going back. Loved every minute there.

The house was clean and cosy and the welcome card and biscuits are always a lovely touch from Rachel and Sean. We settled in quickly and headed straight out as the location is perfect for us being just a short walk from the beach. We all absolutely love it here and we will hopefully be returning sometime again in the future
