“Parc an Castle is accurately described by Helpful Holidays.”

It is not a five star holiday cottage and is somewhat dated but it was clean, warm and comfortable and well equipped. It is in a superb location, private and with great views. You can walk from the property to the coast path and we did various circular walks in both directions. Lizard Village is a short walk with plenty of choice of eating places etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our week’s stay and would recommend but read the description and don’t book if you are expecting a top notch five star ...

“We really enjoyed our stay and had a fantastic week in Lizard.”

The location for the property is stunning and the hosts Liz (Lottie and the rabbits) we very welcoming. The accomodation is clean and comfortable, we really liked the sense of history and stepping back in time. I would have appreciated a washing machine, however we did get by with hand washing and using the spinner. I would recommend for a relaxed and enjoyable getaway.

“I visited Parc an Castle with my son for about the 30th year!”

Sadly, I lost my wife 2 years ago who loved staying there and so I have many happy memories of the cottage. Elizabeth Hart has made some improvements since II last stayed there 2 years ago, the virus stopped me last year. As I have told friends, it is not luxurious, which I would not want, but very comfortable and clean and a superb location, hence my repeat visits! Regards. Ian Challen

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay af Parc an Castle.”

The views from this cottage annex are amazing! We loved the peace and quiet despite being a short walk from the Lizard Point and Village. The accomodation is so spacious and very well equiped - the photos don't do it justice. We were so fortunate to be able to bring our dogs with us to enjoy the wonderful coastal walks and surrounding fields. Alas I believe the accomodation is no longer dog friendly which sadly prevents us from planning a return trip.

“Fantastic location, however, the bed in the master bedroom is too small & the sofa in the living room is uncomfortable.”

Mrs Heskins July 2020

“We had a lovely week at Parc an Castle cottage, it is basic but we were aware of this and were going for the views and to an area that we knew well.”

We were not disappointed, the views were amazing from nearly every window and I happily sat for hours at the lounge window looking out to sea. Despite being in the middle of global pandemic we felt very safe here, there are lovely coastal walks straight from your front door and it is very peaceful and private for a relaxing holiday. The owner lives on site and is very friendly and helpful. The decor of the cottage could do with being updated in places but the beds were comfortable and we'd happily return, those views and sunsets are to die for!!⁶

The shower is very temperamental and goes hot and cold while your in it and the hot water is very limited only one person could use the bath before it ran out which made it difficult with not being able to use the shower well

“The host was very welcoming and although a basic cottage, we knew this was the case when we booked.”

The sea views at Parc an Castle are second to none and it's a great base for a short break.

The property

This is a large family house with sea views from most rooms, which was built by the owners' great grandfather in the early 1900's.

The owner still lives in the main house and lets a small cottage next to the house which is ideal for those seeking basic accommodation.

Situated within sight of the most southerly part of England and surrounded by its own 2 acres of farmland, some of which is lawn garden, makes this a most peaceful and interesting place to spend a leisurely holiday and ensures tremendous freedom for children.

It is only 100 yards from the coastal path and secluded coves, only 1 mile from the spectacular Kynance Cove.

There is a pleasant cafe nearby on Lizard Point with magnificent views of the sea and rugged coastline and the village with its interesting craft shops, pubs and stores is less than a mile away.

The cottage is a single storey stone built ground floor annexe converted from the former coach house adjoining the main house.

It is built around a courtyard with south-facing sea views.

It has a practical quarry tiled kitchen whilst the dual aspect lounge, with its beamed ceiling and brick built fireplace, is light and simply furnished.

About the location

THE LIZARD

Cadgwith 3.5 miles ; Mullion 5 miles ; Helston 11 miles

The most southerly town in Britain, The Lizard is located right at the tip of the Lizard Peninsula. The town has a welcoming community, lovely village green, parish church, lifeboat station, and a small selection of shops, galleries and inns. There is also an excellent pasty shop and the Lizard lighthouse, which has sat proudly atop the cliffs since 1751. Look out to sea from the lighthouse and you will see the Man ‘o War rocks – often completely submerged, these rocks have been the cause of many shipwrecks over the centuries. The Lizard Peninsula is unique in its geology, and visitors can take home some local Serpentine rock in the form of ornaments and gifts. The Lizard makes a great base for exploring the rest of the Lizard Peninsula, and is particularly popular with walkers and nature enthusiasts; the Cornish Chough now breeds in the area.

Note: Sorry, no washing machine. Note: Parc an Castle is an example of a property which is in an absolutely terrific location close to the sea and sits within a 2 diamond/tick rating.
