THE LOBSTER POT, romantic, country holiday cottage in The Lizard
The Lobster Pot in the Lizard, Cornwall, sleeps two guests in one bedroom.
Please note: Short bookings must not cross over the Friday changeover day - during Summer School Holidays only weekly bookings can be accommodated, starting on a Friday. The Lobster Pot, a studio-style annex, consists of a kitchenette with electric combi oven, electric hob, fridge with ice compartment, microwave, kettle, and toaster, dining seating for two, and a sitting area with a Smart TV, DVD player, DVDs and books. There is a double bed with a Smart TV, serviced by a shower room with walk-in shower, basin, and WC. Highchair, travel cot, and stairgate available if booking with ref. 1142962. Outside, there is a non-enclosed front garden with lawn, patio, furniture, and off-road parking for one car. Sorry, no pets and no smoking. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included. You'll find the closest shop in 0.3 miles, a pub in 0.3 miles, and a beach in 0.4 miles. The Lobster Pot is your well-appointed, romantic getaway to the coast. Note: Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am.
Amenities: Oil fired central heating from October - Easter, electric radiators outside of this. Electric combi oven, electric hob, microwave, fridge with freezer compartment, kettle, toaster. Smart TV, DVD player, selection of books, WiFi. Fuel and power inc. in rent, however this does not apply to electric vehicle charging. bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Highchair, travel cot, and stairgate available if booking with ref. 1142962. Off-road parking for 1 car. Non-enclosed front garden with lawn, patio and furniture. Sorry, no pets and no smoking. Shop 0.3 miles, pub 0.3 miles, beach 0.4 miles. Note: Check-in from 4pm, check-out by 10am.
Region: Cornwall’s visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain’s premier holiday destinations.
Town: 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.
