Higher Lampra

Higher Lampra is a detached one-bedroom cottage near Mullion on the Lizard peninsula, sleeping two guests with two bathrooms. The property has both a woodburning stove and an open fire for cooler nights, and sits within 14 acres of shared grounds that give the setting a sense of space not common in coastal cottages of this size. Dogs are welcome, with the extensive grounds giving them room to run.

Three beaches lie within 2.4km: Poldhu Cove beach at 2km is a National Trust beach with consistent surf and good sand, Gunwalloe Church Cove sits 2.4km away, and Polurrian is also 2.4km. All three are reachable without a motorway or dual carriageway, making the driving straightforward. The village of Mullion is nearby for a pub and a small shop. The South West Coast Path runs close to all three beaches, connecting them for walkers who want to cover the headland on foot rather than by car.

This cottage suits couples or solo travellers who want a coastal base with strong walking routes and do not need a washing machine or dishwasher on site. It is good for dog owners and those who value outdoor space over interior size. The property's two bathrooms for two guests is an unusual ratio that adds day-to-day convenience. The 54 reviews from Sykes suggest consistent guest satisfaction. Friday changeover applies.
