Stay in lizard

Lovely quirky property, left clean and tidy. Perfect location just what we were looking for. Would definitely stay again as my dad really enjoyed himself, if any slight negative comment there were a few ants on the window and inside the kitchen area, powder had been left outside but they did seem to still get in.

Cute, small and cozy cottage, perfect to stay for a few days in the Lizard

Cute, small and cozy cottage, perfect to stay for a few days in the Lizard. The interior is small, but complete. It has everything you need. The room was very humid, but with opening the windows and the dehumidifier it was okay.

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Communication
I have never stayed in such a small cottage. I referred to it as my HMO. All basic necessary things. Bed, shower room, kitchenette. I hope I helped your cleaners by stripping the bed ready for fresh bedding.
