About this property
Coastal cottage - sea views on coast path, amazing local beaches, The Lizard
Traditional 2 bedroom Cornish Coastwatch Cottage that sleeps 4. Amazing sea views, less than 100m from the sea. NOTE access to the cottage is via an unmade road and is best suited for 4x4 and SUV's.
From the cottage you can walk easily to The Lizard Village and Housel Bay beach (15 mins along the coast path). This truly is an idyllic location based in an area of outstanding natural beauty and surrounded by a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The cottage will suit walkers, bird watchers and nature lovers – or those who wish to relax and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of being next to the sea. Check out of video for a tour of the cottage.
GROUND FLOOR: Large porch/sun room: catches the sun all day with views of the sea. Small table and chairs. Leads into DINING ROOM: with table and chairs and log burning stove with original brick surround and original grey painted panelling walls. KITCHEN: Newly fitted with electric hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, washer/dryer and fridge/freezer. LOUNGE: With comfortable seating – L-shaped sofa and a 2 seater sofa. Amazon Fire TV, Netflix, DVD player. New log burning stove. Sea views. BATHROOM: With L-shaped bath, overhead shower with screen, WC, wash basin and heated towel rail.
FIRST FLOOR - TWO DOUBLE BEDROOMS: MASTER BEDROOM: With king-sized bed. TWIN-BEDDED ROOM. Both have window seats and spectacular sea views.
OUTSIDE SPACE - Small COURTYARD at rear of house. LARGE GARDEN with wind-protected “Secret Garden” with picnic benches. The garden is open and does not have a fence, so please bear this in mind if you have dogs. Small children will need to be supervised when outside.
PARKING: Space for 2 cars on private drive.
HEATING: Electric convector panel heaters and two log burning stoves.
PETS: Maximum 2 well behaved dogs only. We do not allow dogs to be left alone in the property. The garden is not enclosed so dogs will need to be supervised when outside.
SPECIAL NOTES: The lane to the property is through a farm along an 1 mile long unmade road and may be unsuitable for low-slung cars. Maximum speed of 5mph. You will need to be happy to drive along an unmade road that can be a bit bumpy in areas or muddy when it rains. Ideally suited for 4x4 and SUV cars. Cows may come to meet you so make sure you close the gates behind you!
Towels and linen are inclusive in the rental.

Family with two young girls and a dog.
Why they chose this property
The location is amazing, the sea is so close and you can just sit in the garden and watch the sea - its mesmerising. I love that I can really relax here and have a real holiday. It feels like natural, authentic Cornwall, with cows and cliff ponies adding to that experience!
What makes this property unique
The proximity to the sea, the coast path and Lizard Village. You can go for a nice walk, then walk to the pub for a bite to eat after.
