    “Thanks for a lovely stay.”

    Beautiful location to explore the Lizard. The play barn was loved by the boys. We enjoyed the walk out to the creek in the valley below. Particularly beautiful at sunset as the water turned gold. We also enjoyed exploring nearby Kynance and Cadgwith coves plus Lizard point. Having a real fire made the cottage super cosy and really appreciated the snacks and tea package for our arrival. Thank you
