Accommodation
First and foremost this is a luxurious home and not a hotel. You will be welcomed by your hosts and treated like family friends that deserve the finest hospitality. Rest your head in exquisitely furnished bedrooms and roam the rest of the immaculate house as if it was your own.
Experience the tranquil beauty of the parish of Landewednack. Nestled at the tip of The Lizard this is the most southerly point in England and literally juts out into the Atlantic Ocean. From this historical property built in 1683, you can enjoy dazzling sea-views sweeping beyond the tiny church that sits peacefully at the foot of the grounds.
The garden flaunts an array of exotic trees and plants in a radiant, secluded plot that could rival some of Cornwall’s most beautifully manicured gardens. Curl-up in the cradle of the sub-tropical atmosphere and enjoy the heated swimming pool, summerhouse, walled garden, water features and secluded corners.
Choose one of our five beautifully furnished bedrooms named after some of our favourite local landscapes:
Helford River
Rest your head in a four-poster bed fit for royalty, and enjoy the lavish features of your en-suite bathroom.
Frenchman’s Creek
Make yourself at home in this elegant twin room named after the surrounding landscape that inspired Daphne du Maurier.
Kynance Cove
Lie in the luxurious folds of this double-canopied bed and enjoy immaculate en suite facilities.
Church Cove
Enjoy the beauty of this double room that was named after the tranquil cove above which the house stands.
Lizard Point
Snuggle into this single haven that perfectly proves how small can be truly beautiful.
Facilities
Swimming Pool
The pool is the perfect size for a few appetite inducing laps, and heated to a glorious 25C+, making it inviting even in the British climate! Secluded and protected from the wind by walls and a beautiful garden, this is a private spot not only to swim, but also to sit and relax, light the barbecue or sip an afternoon cocktail. The terraced summerhouse provides the perfect shelter for siestas or inside dining.
Boat Hire
Moored just 20 minutes away on the Helford River, we have three boats available to guests. If you want to feel the wind in your sails you can climb aboard the graceful 40-foot wooden ketch; if you fancy meandering leisurely up the Helford try the wooden punt; or if you want to increase the pace and try waterskiing, then skim across the water on our powerful 13-foot Dory.
Local Activities
The Lizard is a designated Area of Outstanding Beauty that boasts a plethora of things to do. Your hosts will be happy to organise activities or point you in the right direction according to your desires
Fine Dining
Antony, your private Michelin chef, invites you to indulge in local, gourmet fare for the duration of your stay.
The evening meal is exquisite. Anthony serves a four-course dinner using fish and lobster caught by local fishermen and fresh cuts of meat from the village butcher. Vegetables, fruit and herbs are plucked straight from Landewednack’s gardens or organic farms on the peninsula.
