Why they chose this property

The location is amazing, the sea is so close and you can just sit in the garden and watch the sea - its mesmerising. I love that I can really relax here and have a real holiday. It feels like natural, authentic Cornwall, with cows and cliff ponies adding to that experience!

What makes this property unique

The proximity to the sea, the coast path and Lizard Village. You can go for a nice walk, then walk to the pub for a bite to eat after.
