Originally built as a chapel in 1846, this sympathetically reimagined single-level hideaway is a fantastic holiday home for couples and solo travellers keen to discover the secluded coves, quaint villages and beautiful beaches of the Lizard Heritage Coast. The cottage lies in a peaceful spot with a choice of walking trails from the doorstep, with the picturesque fishing village of Porthallow just a mile away, a popular spot for snorkelling, swimming and kayaking. The Lizard Peninsula is home to a range of fascinating attractions and historic landmarks, including Halliggye Fogou, Goonhilly Downs National Nature Reserve and the Old Serpentine Works, all within 8 miles. Heading north, the bustling town of Helston (11 miles) has some friendly places to eat and drink, with popular nearby sites including Penrose, Trebah Gardens and Potager Garden, all within 14 miles.

Stepping inside this fresh, airy and cheerful cottage you will be greeted by the spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner/bedroom which makes a relaxing studio-style space for you to relax in. Light streams in via skylights in the high vaulted ceilings which are adorned with timber beams adding a dash of character. The central lounge has ample seating and a Smart TV, with a cute dining table to one side, perfect for sharing a romantic meal which you can prepare in the thoughtfully arranged and beautifully equipped kitchen over in the corner. The room also features a lovely plush king-size bed. The accommodation is rounded off with a light and invigorating shower room.

Stepping outside, the charming garden is enclosed and features an array of mature shrubs and plants, making a private and relaxing space to unwind in on a lazy summer afternoon. There’s a choice of seating areas, with a fire pit and a pergola, perfect for dining alfresco. Parking is available along the driveway for two cars.
