We had a very nice stay in 'Poppy'. Very friendly hosts, clean, cosy apartment, with beautiful surroundings: the village of Cadgwith is beautiful, and so are the walks you can make directly from the doorstep. Would reccommend it to anyone.

A real home away from home.

A lovely, well maintained cottage set away from the road and near the SW Coast path. Very clean and well equipped, very welcoming (the cream tea was lovely). A lot of thought had been given to providing the little extras, including accurate and humorous directions, which put us firmly in the holiday mood.

The Coach House, Poppy Cottage

The cottage was an ideal location & well appointed. Directly on the coast path and a short walk into the fishing village of Cadgwith, with a welcoming village pub. The accomodation is a short drive to nearby beaches suitable for swimming & other water sports.

The coach house

A lovely cottage in beautiful countryside with some tantalising views of f the sea. The cottage was warm and welcoming - a great place from which to explore the Lizard and to walk our socks off! Our dog was initially unsure about the goats!

Detour to a little paradise

We were simply delighted at beautiful Poppy Cottage, and ever since our vacation, we've been dreaming of our days in Cadgwith – the children of three patiently loving goats and thrilling railway toys, the adults of this wonderful accommodation, lovingly furnished down to the last detail, where you can't help but feel at home. (oh yes, we did!) Everything is just right here. Above all, we'd like to thank Paula and her family. You couldn't have received a warmer welcome!

Lovely Place, Ideal to explore the Lizard

Very comfortable, all the essentials you need, good Wifi to keep the kids happy, Great location for access to the coastal path. Cadgwith is a lovely little village. Lizard 10 mins away by car. St Michaels Mount about 40mins drive. We were lucky with the weather for a pre-Easter break with very few people around. Very relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable break.

Comfortable cottage close to pretty fishing village

This is a recently-modernised immaculate cottage 15 mins walk from the centre of Cadgwith on the coast near the Lizard. It is well-equipped with comfortable beds and a good bathroom. It was perfect for the three of us and excellent value.

A great find - Poppy Cottage

It was a great find for exploring the Lizard. Both the property and grounds were immaculate. The accommodation had everything we needed and it was beautifully decorated. The welcome scones were a lovely touch. It was lovely to have the animals so close to the property. The host was also very welcoming. I would definitely recommend this property and we would love to return sometime.sconesdecorated
