A Lookout was every bit as wonderful as the description and reviews. The location was fantastic – on the clifftop with amazing views down to the harbour and village and out to sea. The village, with excellent pub, was a short stroll down the cliff path (it was a real bonus being able to access the coast path from the cottage). Paul was an excellent and welcoming host, the cottage was warm and comfortable – all in all a wonderful place to spend a holiday. Lots of lovely walks and places to visit. Thoroughly recommended!

We very much enjoyed our holiday at A Lookout. When we arrived we were greeted warmly by the owner, who explained everything we needed to know. We immediately felt very comfortable and welcome. The cottage is absolutely fantastic and the wonderful view of the sea and the lovely Cadgwith below us was a delight every morning. We were even able to watch a seal fishing off the harbour exit and in addition the daily boat trips of the Cadgwith rowing club were really nice for us to watch from our observation point. Cadgwith has retained its original character and the pictures in the local pub speak a language of solidarity and a functioning community. This is something very worth preserving and the place has welcomed us tourists as if we were next door neighbours. We will certainly come back to Cadgwith one day and would be delighted to spend a wonderful holiday at A Lookout again. Thank you so much for your help and excellent service to make our stay a fantastic experience.

We loved our fortnight at A Lookout. Everything was as expected. A Lookout is ideally placed for access to the cove and the Lizard peninsula. Everything was as described – amenities and utensils first class. Sadly no welcome pack for our first cuppa, which we have come to expect staying in other Cadgwith cove cottages, but apart from that, perfect. Definitely would come again.

The view from A Lookout does not disappoint. From watching the wildlife to the activities in the harbour and off-shore and even just watching the waves crash onto the coast, every day was an entertainment. Even if we had not had stunning weather we would still have been using the outside table and spaces as much as possible. Situated right on the SW coast path we could walk without even moving the car. Driving into the village, let alone parking, was a bit tricky, so we were much happier walking to the pub, Old Cellars café and harbour.

We had a great time at A Lookout. The location is fantastic – beautiful views, peaceful garden area and walking distance into Cadgwith village. The provision of a washing machine, and a bigger fridge, would be welcome. We saw part of Flora Day [traditional annual event in Helston] and it was an impressive and memorable addition to our holiday. Thank you to our hosts for a lovely holiday.

We loved the Lookout. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and had everything needed for a pleasant stay. The view from the garden is stunning and we used the outside deck area every day (the garden and decking area could be improved and does need a little TLC). We would definitely recommend this cottage to friends and family.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at A Lookout. The location, accommodation, local area, views and access to walks was some of the best we’ve had in Cornwall. The owners were friendly and accommodating. We didn’t want to leave and look forward to returning in the future.

A Lookout is a well presented property and has lovely views over Cadgwith Cove and out to sea. It is ideal for 2-4 people. The owners live nearby and were friendly and helpful. We were able to join the coastal path to walk down to the village. A lovely spot to recharge the batteries.

The stunning views over the sea and Cadgwith cove, the cottage itself and the gardens all helped make our stay at A Lookout truly magical. Paul and Jacqui were so helpful recommending places to eat and where to go (the Thai delivery, although late, was delicious). We’d certainly recommend the cottage to anybody and would love to return one of these days.

Wind picking up....waves starting to roll into the cove. Spot on. And with visits from Ronnie and Reggie, the cats. Purrfect!

A nice little cottage in a fantastic location. We enjoyed walking down the coast path in both directions - stunning scenery and interesting mining history - as well as into Cadgwith, which is just on and off the beaten path enough to be thoroughly entertaining. The pub is excellent - always something going on and great food too. Plus Jacqui and Paul are lovely hosts - thank you for the hospitality!

Our second stay at A Lookout and it was just as wonderful as before. The property is charming, as are the owners, Paul and Jacqui. I have previously described a stay at A Lookout as being like medicine for the soul. Indeed it has been again, and we will have no hesitation in booking again if there are weeks available. We are very tempted to keep it all a secret so as to increase our chances! Many thanks too for the smooth booking process.

Lovely cottage with panoramic sea views and direct access to the South West coastal path. Friendly and responsive host. Really enjoyed our stay here and will look to book again.

A Lookout fully met our expectations. Breathtaking views, great and quiet location and everything you need. Direct access to the coastal hiking trails and the Lizard peninsula. Paul was an amicable host. We can only recommend it.

Thanks for a brilliant stay. Highlights were enjoying a cup of tea while watching the sea and walking onto the coast path from the front door. A wonderful place in a wonderful location. Paul was really helpful and friendly.

Our 2-week holiday at A Lookout at Bodrigy must be one of the most enjoyable and relaxing holidays my wife and I have had over 50 years. The Lookout lives up to its name and has astounding views of the cove, sea and coastline from every window. Although located only 75 yards from the owner’s main house we felt that we were quite alone. The property is very tastefully decorated, is very bright and clean and everything is provided. Cadgwith is a 5 minute walk down the coast path where one can just sit and relax. There is a fine community fish shop that sells locally caught fresh fish at very reasonable prices or one can have a meal or a drink in the pub or adjacent restaurant. We made the mistake of driving to Tintagel and St Ives but there is no need to leave The Lizard really as there are so many pretty villages and coves to explore. I will miss my daily 5-minute stroll to the general store at Ruan Minor to get my newspaper and sit outside with a coffee immersing myself in the slow pace of village life. Overall we had a wonderful time and will definitely return to The Lizard in the next couple of years.

The Lookout is just as described. Perfect views and a comfortable holiday let with everything you would need for a self-catering holiday. The location is ideal for coastal path walks straight from the property. We loved our stay!

A Lookout is a very special place overlooking the idyllic and quiet Cadgwith. A great base for a holiday – a one minute walk to the coastal path and everything else accessible by a short car journey. A great place to get away from the crowds – it felt as though we had uncovered a secret place. Will definitely return to watch the ships go by and the fishing boats come in.

A Lookout is in a beautiful, quiet location with really close access to the coast path and a short walk into Cadgwith. If you like walking and exploring the cliffs and beaches this is a brilliant place to stay. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Jacqui and Paul’s bolt hole is a little bit of heaven on earth. A cosy cottage with fantastic sea views, clean and well maintained and a lovely sun deck to relax on. Jacqui and Paul popped in to check everything was OK and were lovely, open and friendly hosts. We watched the moonlight on the water in the bay, ate gorgeous food at the Cadgwith inn and fell in love with Cornwall all over again. We’ll be back.

Our stay at A Lookout was very relaxing and Paul and Jacqui were very welcoming. The location really lived up to expectations and it was very easy to go on local walks along the coast path and visit the nearby beaches. The cottage itself had everything we needed and was immaculately clean and tidy. A thoroughly enjoyable stay and we very much expect to return another year.

Our second stay at A Lookout and it was all great again. We enjoyed the atmosphere in the lovely Cadgwith village - the party in the gig club, the festival in Falmouth, the absolutely friendly owners, Paul and Jacqui, the sunny weather and so on.....Unfortunately we are back home now, but staying at A Lookout now feels like home. We have already booked for next year.

We spent the most wonderful week at the Lookout, and in Cornwall. It was our honeymoon, and everything we could have wished for. Wonderful house, wonderful village, brilliant hosts. Weather was kind and everyone was welcoming and friendly. We found it hard to tear ourselves away. Thank you, Paul and Jacqui, for sharing your little bit of paradise with us. We will be back for sure.
