This lovely character cottage lies just outside the village of St Keverne on Cornwall's Lizard Peninsula. Half a mile from the coast, this pretty coastline is peppered with coves and inlets and pretty traditional Cornish fishing villages. Inside you will find a cosy living room with open fire and multifuel stove. A country kitchen/diner with Rayburn and ground floor bathroom. On the first floor 2 bedrooms - a double and a double with a single bed, plus a first floor sitting room with wood burning stove and double bed settee. There is also a first floor shower room. Outside a pretty garden is perfect for relaxation. A wonderful choice of property for family seaside breaks or a couple seeking peace and tranquility on the Cornish coastline.

On the eastern side of The Lizard Peninsula, the pretty village of St Keverne, lying just 1.25 miles inland, is the focal point for this area, with its village pubs and shops surrounding the village square, and an impressive church spire, at one time used to guide the Cornish fishermen home. From St Keverne, you can easily explore the natural and spectacular beauty of the Lizard Peninsula by car, bicycle or on foot. You will find walled fishing harbours, tiny secret coves, sandy bays and dramatic clifftop walks along the South West Coastal path. Just north is the Helford River, a yachtsman's dream and home to Frenchman's Creek, and picturesque Helford village. A short walk takes you to Roskilly’s Farm, where you can tuck in to ice cream to die for. Further afield, visit Falmouth, with one of the world's largest natural harbours, Pendennis Castle built by Henry VIII, and of course you cannot miss out on a trip to The National Maritime Museum.

Cornwall’s visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain’s premier holiday destinations.
