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.

A short downhill walk via footpath to Coverack, which suited us well. Would recommend an on-line Supermarket delivery if you travel without a car, as we did. The only suggested improvement is an extractor fan for the bathroom, but appreciate there is an opening window. Thank you for the biscuits, milk and orange juice on arrival! Very homely with lovely pictures on a coastal theme. Would certainly visit again. Short downhill walk to nearby cove, and lovely coastal walking!

The cottage is comfortable and well equipped with general kitchen equipment, no washing machine or dishwasher, but we didnât find that mattered. The lounge is spacious with 2 large sofas and 2 chairs as well as games and TV/dvds. The bedroom had sufficient cupboard space and the electric shower in the bathroom gave good hot water. The cottage welcomes dogs. There is no Wi-Fi but there was reasonable mobile reception. For us though, the great bonus was the incredible location looking out over the sea with great walks in both directions. The large garden of the properties on the headland was also a great plus with strategic wooden benches where you could sit with an early morning tea or an evening beer, gazing out to sea. Would definitely recommend!

The three adults plus two small dogs in our party all have a great time here. Seaview was spotlessly clean on our arrival and had some nice personalised touches that we appreciated. We found the kitchen/dining area a little "compact" but it wasn't a problem as we worked around this easily enough and anyway, it was more than compensated for by the large and comfortable lounge. The bedrooms were well furnished, comfortable and had a good storage space. Worth mentioning that the kitchen was particularly well equipped with all manner of pots, pans, casseroles, knives, dishes etc. There were even two different kinds of vegetable peeler! The nominated parking spaces were a bonus too. Located at the end of a private road, Seaview was quiet yet had amazing panoramic views of the sea that were captivating whether sunny or stormy. It's 50m above sea level so there's a bit of a climb back up from Coverack itself or the small (and almost private) Porthbeer Cove with its mixture rocky/sandy beach. Its only 700m (not the mile quoted in the Sykes listing) by footpath to the lovely Coverack harbour with the excellent (if somewhat pricey) Lifeboat chippie and Paris Hotel. Good coast path walks in both directions right from the door. We toured the area a bit. We enjoyed Loe Bar and Porthleven in rough weather â these can be accessed from car parks in the north of Loe Bar or the NT Penrose Estate. The Spingo beer at the Blue Anchor in Helston was as good as I remember it from 40 years ago and the walk around Lizard Point excellent and sparsely populated once you got 200m from the car parks! Note that Seaview's location is nowhere near that indicated on the Sykes mapping. Exceeded expectations.
