The Croft combines exquisite characterful features with all the modern luxuries, framed by the sublime cove and sheltered harbour of Coverack. Here, it's about sea swims at the bottom of your garden, hot tub soaks and today’s catch cooked on the Big Green Egg barbecue.

  • The surroundings

    The Croft sits directly on the waterfront in the heart of Coverack, a small fishing village and cove with a traditional working harbour, handful of family-run eateries, friendly locals and an away-from-it-all feel.

    Coverack is part of The Lizard Peninsula, home to Britain's most southerly point. This region is often overlooked, being one of the furthest points to travel to from elsewhere in the UK. However, its distance from more well-known Cornish locations means its rugged natural beauty is preserved, and its coast paths are quiet, even in the height of summer.

    Walk parallel to the shore for miles, spotting Cornish choughs, grey seals and wildflowers. Tuck into beach picnics on sheltered coves. Breathe in the freshest air in the country whilst gazing out across the vast ocean.

    Unique and varied, The Lizard Peninsula is home to a multitude of beaches and small fishing towns, including Kennack Sands, Church Cove, Poldhu, and of course, Kynance Cove, arguably one of Cornwall's most distinct and visually striking beaches.
