“The property was in a delightful setting, with a lovely sea view.”

The cottage was, as you would expect, in immaculate condition. It felt like home as soon as we opened the door. I would throughly recommend it to anyone considering a holiday in Coverack.

A wonderful place to stay.

“We had a lovely time here in this cottage.”

We found it to be in an excellent location, not only for the view which is postcard perfect, but also the walking distance to the village amenities and harbour. The cottage itself was beautifully finished and extremely well equipped. It was furnished well and all beds were comfy. Going to sleep to the sound of the waves was a lovely holiday experience. Would highly recommend and many thanks to the owners for their thought and care in making it such a nice home to stay in.

Thank you!

Sarah September 2020

“Beautifully renovated cottage in Coverack with stunning views out to sea from both the bedroom or when dining.”

A perfect base for exploring and coastal walking around the Lizard Peninsula. The lovely little touches of fresh flowers and Cornish cream tea were very much welcomed. Would highly recommend. Thankyou.

Sam February 2020

“This is a superb property, nestled in possibly the most picturesque fishing village in Cornwall.”

It has been decorated to the highest standard and the log burner is such a lovely feature. The sea views are mesmerising in all weathers! It is a very kitted out cottage with everything you need to enjoy a relaxing, luxurious cottage holiday. If you haven't been, I highly recommend you go!!

“Fantastic position and view.”

I imagine parking would be a very big issue in season. Some documentary guidance regarding the TV operation would be useful. We will probably be booking again

“Very happy with this booking.”

Excellent accommodation. Prime location actually adjacent to the South West Coastal path but not inconvenienced in any way by the regular foot traffic going by the front door. Parking is not perfect but with one days exception we either managed to get in the spaces at the end of the lane or the "pub" car park which is only 5 minutes walk and we had 3 cars to accommodate. Location and accommodation highly recommended and access to all parts of the brilliant Lizard Peninsula is quite easy. Walking and/or water sports literally on the doorstep but for a 60 year old with a 2 year old grandson tagging along an early morning cup of tea on the bench by the front door watching the tide come in or out (I never really worked out which) was a little bit of heaven before grandad was in play !! Hope to go back at some point.

“An idyllic spacious cottage on a peaceful lane, along the coastal path with no traffic nearby!”

The views of the bay, and out to sea from all cottage windows are just fabulous! It is beautifully furnished in Laura Ashley interior design with a modern and very tasteful look to it! Facilities within the cottage are excellent with free an effective wi-fi. It is such a relaxing place to stay with quiet beaches nearby along the coastal path, and also in the village, as well as a watersports centre. Coverack is quaint with lots of pretty thatched cottages, a great pub and plenty of places to eat on your doorstep. Homemade pasties available to order from Elizabeth in the village .. delicious! It has a great community shop with local produce and plenty of choice. I would highly recommend 4, Coastguard Cottage, well worth visiting to enjoy the beautiful Cornish landscapes right on your doorstep!

“4,Coastguard Cottages is a beautifully appointed cottage with a glorious view of the sea.”

It contains everything one would need to enjoy a comfortable self-catered holiday. The owner Sadie is always very quick to respond with help. We highly recommend this cottage. My wife Sheila and I were very happy

“You may need to tell people that the parking is random, we had to park over a mile away, but it was no issue for us”

- Stuart, August 2018
Stephen June 2018

“Coverack is a wonderful, unspoilt Cornish village and 4 Costguards cottage was the perfect place to enjoy it.”

The views are sensational and the accommodation was spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well equipped. I’m plotting my next visit already!

- Stephen, June 2018
Jenny March 2018

“The cottage is wonderfully situated overlooking the sea where we saw seals as we had breakfast.”

It is very well appointed and comfortable (and well insulated) yet keeps all its character. Brilliantly positioned for coastal walks and with the convenience of pubs and small shops in Coverack. We had a wonderful time.

“Fabulous cottage, very well equipped, beautifully situated, couldn't ask for more”

“The location of this cottage is wonderful which contributed to the fabulous time we had as a family over New Year.”

Great cottage and location.?

- Robert, December 2016
Ray October 2016

“Excellent, very clean cottage.”

Wonderful location. Great walks along South West Coastal Path. However, attic bedroom should be advertised as for children only. We had party of six adults. The attic bedroom en suite did not have a mirror which made shaving difficult. One could be installed on tiled wall next to the bathroom door over the sink. Adults will (no matter how careful) will bump their heads on the beams in the attic. We went off season and parking was still difficult. This is the reason I would not book again. For two or four adults - and two children - the cottage itself is superb.

Emily September 2016

“We have visited Coverack a few times under canvas and this time returned with our toddler and grandparents and found this wonderful cottage.”

The upside down layout means you get fantastic views from the lounge and kitchen and also good views from the bedrooms, the attic room would be great for children (we kept our toddler in the cot in our room). The cottage was extremely comfortable, with everything you would need for a weeks stay. The location is great, in a quiet area of the village away from the road yet just 5 minutes walk to the harbour. The bench out the front is a great place to sit and relax and enjoy the views. We all had a wonderful relaxing week and will be back!

Richard March 2016

“The cottage is in a beautiful location with stunning views over the bay.”

It was very well equipped and had an excellent standard of decoration and cleanliness.The cottage had a relaxing atmosphere and really felt like 'home' during our stay. We have stayed in many holiday cottages in Cornwall and this is one of the best.

- Richard, March 2016
Denise September 2015

“The accommodation was excellent.”

We were very comfortable. The location on the coastal path overlooking the sea & in the centre of Coverack was wonderful. We would definitely return to the cottage which is something we rarely do.

- Denise, September 2015
Kim September 2015

“The Cottage was just lovely and the views from every room meant everyone could see the sea from their bedroom.”

It was a lovely quiet location to return to after jaunts to St Ives and Falmouth etc. We had some lovely walks locally and elsewhere on the Lizard.

Kathryn April 2015

“The proximity to, and the views of the sea from the cottage were a joy.”

The village of Coverack is very pretty. There were lots of beautiful places to visit. We found great restaurants serving local sea food. We found the team at Sykes Cottages extremely helpful too, especially as we were making a last minute booking.

COVERACK

St Keverne 2 miles; Helston 12 miles; Falmouth 18 miles.

Coverack is a small fishing village on the Lizard Peninsula, a few miles from Lizard Point in Cornwall, the most southerly point on mainland Britain. Coverack is a beautiful and peaceful place to escape the main tourist routes and offers a beach in the sheltered bay, which is ideal for swimming, windsurfing and kayaking, as well as shops, pub and restaurants. St Keverne (4 miles from Poldowrian) has a Post Office, shops and 2 pubs. The Lizard Peninsula has many spectacular coves and beaches and is noted for its rare geology and plants. From Lizard Point there are wonderful sea views from the windswept cliffs, which provide fabulous walking opportunities along this stretch of the South West Coast Path. Inland is the market town of Helston, known for its Flora Day Festival, and in Gweek is The Cornish Seal Sanctuary. Flambards theme park is just 20 minutes' drive away and just over ten miles away is the Culdrose Airfield, where once a year the public are welcome to come and meet the Fleet Air Arm, the Royal Navy’s flying force. Coverack is ideally located for exploring The Lizard Peninsula, as well as the lovely seaside towns of St Ives and Falmouth and many other beaches and pretty villages.
