Guest Feedback and Testimonials
“I recently had the pleasure of staying at Corner Cottage in the beautiful fishing village of Coverack, and I can honestly say it was a holiday to remember! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the charm of this idyllic cottage.
The thatched roof and classic Cornish architecture instantly drew us in, exuding a sense of history and character. The interior is nothing short of enchanting—artistically decorated to a very high standard, every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The combination of cozy fabrics and tasteful artwork lends the space an air of elegance while keeping that friendly, relaxed vibe.
One of our favourite features was the log-burning stove, which provided a wonderful warmth as we settled in for cozy evenings after exploring the village. There’s just something so comforting about curling up in front of the fire with a good book and a cup of tea, all while listening to the soothing sounds of the sea in the background.
Speaking of the sea, the views from the cottage are simply breathtaking. We awoke each morning to stunning sights of the shimmering sea and the picturesque harbour just a stone’s throw away. Watching the boats come and go while enjoying breakfast on the terrace was an experience I won’t soon forget.
Coverack itself is a delightful village with its quaint streets and friendly locals. The nearby beaches and coastal walks are perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in nature, and we felt truly inspired by the beautiful surroundings.
To sum it up, staying at Corner Cottage felt like stepping into a fairytale. It struck the perfect balance of comfort and charm, making it incredibly hard to leave. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in one of Cornwall’s hidden gems. We can’t wait to return!
Thank you for a memorable stay!”
“We stayed for a short break for my birthday. We’ve stayed in Coverack numerous times over the years, and Corner Cottage is easily our favourite. It’s in a fabulous position, really convenient for the pub and harbour. The furnishings and decor are cosy and quirky, the bathroom is a dream, the bed super comfy and the seaviews are amazing. We loved everything about the cottage and hope to be able to stay again in the future.

“We had a fantastic week at Corner Cottage. Such a beautiful property, clean, cosy and so comfortable. Well stocked with everything we could possibly have needed. Beautifully decorated. Great communication from Lindsay too. We will definitely be booking again.”
“Wir hatten 9 fantastische Tage in Cornwall im Corner Cottage. Das Haus ist absolut perfekt gelegen, aus dem Küchenfenster und dem Schlafzimmerfenster blickt man auf den kleinen Hafen von Coverack und die Bucht. Auf dem Parkstreifen gegenüber haben wir immer einen Parkplatz bekommen, der kleine Laden direkt gegenüber von Corner Cottage hatte alles, was man für die wenigen Tage braucht. Das Haus selbst ist absolut toll und vor allem liebevoll eingerichtet, es ist aber auch technisch auf dem neuesten Stand sowohl was alle Gerätschaften aber auch die Haustechnik (Heizung, Küche, Waschmaschine, WLAN, etc.) angeht. Lindsay war eine perfekte Gastgeberin, hatte Tipps für Sightseeing, Restaurants, Shopping und alle relevanten Fragen. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten, Strände und Städte auf dem Lizard (Kennack Sands, Land’s End, Falmouth, St Mawes, etc.) sind innerhalb kurzer Zeit mit dem Auto erreichbar. Im Ort Coverack ist ein kleiner Laden, zwei Restaurants sind kurzfristig fußläufig erreichbar. Der große Einkauf kann etwa im Tesco-Superstore in Helston (ca. 20 Minuten entfernt) erledigt werden. Nicht vergessen sollte man einen Stromadapter, etwa für Handy-Ladekabel, Rasierer oder sonstiges.
Insgesamt eine wunderschöne Urlaubslocation. ”
“The cottage is perfect, so nicely furnished and equipped. We really thought it was one of the best ones we have stayed in and such a great position in Coverack. Everyone we came across in the village was very friendly and welcoming.
Thank you also for the goodies you left for us, very handy. We’ve had a great week.”

“Just got back from a week The Corner Cottage in Coverack. What a perfect week we had. The cottage is like a fairy tale, so beautiful. I loved sitting outside reading my book and dolphin spotting. The bed and pillows etc felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. Lindsey kept in touch to make sure everything was ok. We cannot wait to return.”
“Beautiful view ,and a lovely cottage.”
“Corner Cottage is a truly perfect winter retreat. Home is where the heart is and we have just got back and unpacked but we can’t find ours🤔 .... think our hearts were left behind, probably on one of the windowsills looking out to sea or by the logburner gazing at the flames, possibly still snuggling under the goose down duvet or maybe taking an indulgent bath. We both had a little tear when we locked the door at the end of the fortnight to head back up the M5. What had made it feel even more like home was having our best (four-pawed) friend curled up at our feet in front of the fire at the end of each day.
The open plan kitchen is kitted out with a myriad of quality utensils, not least a great chefs knife and a Bose Sound pod to foster culinary creativity ... and kitchen dancing.
We only took the plunge and joined the Blue Tits for a chilly swim because we were safe in the knowledge that a steamy rejuvenating power shower with hot buttered toast and frothy fortified hot chocolate was only a hop, skip and a jump away.
When we weren’t out yomping the coast path scanning the waves with binoculars for seals and dolphins (yes, we spotted both), we ventured out to Falmouth, which has such cool indie-shops and bars and Porthleven too has a buzzing community with a fabulous pub, The Ship. Helston too has a wonderful pub, The Blue Anchor with their own beer brewed on the premises and a welcoming real fire ... we stumbled across too many great cafes and pubs to mention, even at this time of year the area has a great community vibe.
Corner Cottage is better than home (ours anyway) as the decor is beautifully fun and far removed from your usual ‘neutral to appeal to everyone’ bland awfulness but much more than this, it feels rooted into the hillside giving it a real feeling of permanence and security with its duvet of thatch and heated slate floors, its so wonderfully snug. Sleep is sound and rest is profound. Thank you Lindsay, we just can’t wait to return”
“Lindsay’s Corner Cottage is wonderful, quiet, full of charm, inspiring, place to stay and forget about daily hassles. It’s a beautiful, thatched cottage with stunning harbour and sea views, located at the seafront, close to everything that you may need. It’s 2 minutes walk to the beach and 1 min walk to the harbour. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated, and arriving here was like arriving home rather than a rental holiday place. It’s full of quirky items, paintings, and decorations. Wherever you look, there is something to catch your eye, and children found it very entertaining, and so did we. It was lovely to find the basket of local goods. Thank you, Lindsay! It is very thoughtful. The cottage has a front and back garden. The back garden is very cute, and the front garden was just perfect for sitting down with a cup of tea and watching my husband kayaking and fishing. Lindsay was a brilliant and very responsive host! We had a wonderful week in Corner Cottage. It’s a fantastic place to regenerate and get inspired!”
“Corner cottage is a luxuriously decorated home with beautiful sea & harbour views. It has everything you would want from a holiday home. Lindsay was very attentive and kept in touch with us. Loved the basket of tea/coffee goodies it was a really nice touch! We will certainly be re-booking”
“We had a wonderful week in Corner Cottage. All the rooms are beautifully decorated, and it is very well equipped. The location is next to everything you need in the village, a quality shop, cafe etc., and it is so wonderful to be living so close to the sea, the beach and the activity of the harbour. Overall, it is an incredibly charming place to stay, would highly recommend it.”
“We’ve had a dream of a vacation at Lindsay’s place! Staying in her cottage is like spending time in magicland. It’s perfectly located in the lovely village of Coverack : in front of the shops, next to the harbour and with an extraordinary view on the bay. Eating on her charming patio amidst an enchanting garden with a view on the bay is difficult to beat! Lindsay has a real talent for decoration and design. Everything seems chosen with intention and love. You can feel her touch in each part of the cottage. We felt at home straight away and really heart broken when we had to leave... but we’ll be back! We went there by bus, wanting to feel free of parking hassle and loop hiking. There are amazing hikes from the cottage on the South West Coast Path to be done and anyway, just staying there, enjoying the place, the view is a treat in itself. Thank you Lindsay for all of it.”
“I fell in love with the pink front door and steps leading up to it last year when we stayed in another house in the village and I couldn’t wait to investigate the website and see inside. The booking process was very straight forward and communication was excellent.
On arrival my expectations were high and the cottage certainly didn’t disappoint - it is beautifully furnished and well equipped with the most comfortable beds and a super efficient shower. The open plan ground floor is spacious and yet cosy and although I stayed on my own the kitchen is very well equipped for a family/party of four. The little garden at the back and the front terrace are an absolute joy although I only managed to enjoy it on two sunny days before the weather took a turn for the worse, I couldn’t have asked for a cosier cottage to hunker down in though.
Coverack is a lovely village whatever the weather, I stayed here without a car but the village stores is very well stocked with all provisions. I made use of the lovely kitchen most of the time but can also recommend The Loft for delicious homemade soup and cakes. I also enjoyed going in The Seine Loft for a good rummage amongst the preloved books, locally made cards and gorgeous soaps. There are some lovely walks around the village and the coastal path is easy to access from the cottage, the beach and harbour are literally across the road and the sea views are amazing.
I can’t wait to return.”
“Perfect in every way, the cottage is immaculate and so well positioned in Coverack. Lindsay’s communication from start to finish was on point. We will be back”
