We very much enjoyed our stay at Bowjy Cottage, which is the perfect place to relax and to discover the beautiful landscape of The Lizard. The view is breathtaking, the beach is wonderful and the walks along the coast are simply great! Sheila and Anthony are lovely hosts who made us feel very comfortable in their pretty little Eden.

We loved Bowjy Cottage. As we are keen walkers of the coastal path we could easily travel to the various places starting from its location in Rosenithon. After a short walk to St Keverne the buses took us to many stops along the Lizard peninsula. All in all we walked from Mullion, via Kynance Cove, the Lizard, Coverack to Helford Passage within several days. And every day it was a joy to come back to this tastefully decorated cottage with its stunning views. The house itself is clean, spacious and well provided with all that is needed for a perfect holiday. The owners are very friendly and helpful, making us feel really at home on their farm. Thank you so much!

We had a brilliant week in Bowjy Cottage. What a fantastic cottage and a truly marvellous location. Our daughter fell in love with the animals on the farm. The cottage had everything we needed - we really didn't need to take all the kitchen stuff we packed! It's a wonderful holiday cottage and I hope we are able to visit again next year.

Our first holiday in Cornwall and a great week in this beautiful cottage. Calm, sunshine and the sea - wonderful! Thank you for this unforgettable time.

A fabulous stay at Bowjy - definitely one of our best holidays ever. The beach was fantastic. We loved having barbecues down there, and also sitting outside in the morning having breakfast. We went for loads of walks and visited lots of places, including St Michael's Mount and Roskilly's. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return next year.

A wonderful week. We swam at Godrevy every day and sailed from St Anthony. Also a successful trip to the Minack Theatre - rain free, but wrap up warm! Thank you for the lovely cottage.

A wonderful visit to Bowjy. Beautiful cottage - so clean and the best view ever. Beautiful flowers in the garden as well. We have visited lots of new places and walked the coastal path to Coverack and the other way to Porthallow - both beautiful. The Fat Apples café on the road to Porthallow is just amazing - well worth a visit or two. Thank you Anthony and Sheila for being so hospitable.

Really enjoyed our stay at Bowjy. Quiet and peaceful, with spectacular views. We made full use of the "5 Walks Around St Keverne" book. Loved seeing the plants in the hedgerows and the butterflies and moths on the vegetation. We went to the Seal Sanctuary in Gweek and had a fascinating day there. Food at the Greenhouse was excellent (monkfish), with cheery service, and fish and chips from the van on Friday was very good.

Wow! What a find Bowjy Cottage is. We have enjoyed the most wonderful week here. Thank you for providing such a clean, beautiful cottage that had everything we needed. We enjoyed walking down to Godrevy Cove, and up the lane and across the ponds to enjoy amazing ice cream at Roskilly's. We loved Porthallow and would definitely recommend a pint of Proper Job and dinner at The Five Pilchards. Our other food delights included pasties (enormous!) at Porthleven and a cream tea at the little café at Kennack Sands. However, our most enjoyable times were sitting in the sunny garden watching the ships go by, meeting the cows and having cheeky little visits from Bron (the dog) who we all loved. We can leave here feeling relaxed and ready to face a new term.

We had a lovely week at Bowjy Cottage. The cottage itself was perfect for our family group – we especially enjoyed the garden and patio area at the back. It was amazing sitting on the lawn looking at the sea view and having breakfast in amongst the flowers looking out to sea every day. I don’t think the photographs did full justice to the cottage! – especially the outside dining area and the garden. The quiet location at the end of the lane was really lovely – lots of birdsong. It was all clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was a shame about the path to the beach [due to reopen for 2024] as it meant we didn’t go down to the cove as often as we would have liked. However, we appreciate it was out of your/the owner’s control and were very grateful for your efforts in looking into this. We have used Cadgwith Cove Cottages before and were equally pleased last time.

We had a lovely week at Bowjy Cottage. The cottage was nice and cosy, and what a fabulous view! The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. The farmer and his family were friendly and welcoming. We spent the week on the beach – swimming, fishing, walking and blackberry picking. We will definitely be coming back to the Lizard!

We have had a lovely week. The cottage is amazing - we feel so lucky to have found it. We have been very lucky with the weather and have been to the beach every day. No need to explore other beaches - this one is perfect! The bar has been set very high for any future trips to Cornwall. We may just have to come back to Bowjy!

Our second visit to Chenhale and our first to Bowjy - impeccable, welcoming, comfortable. So tastefully furnished, with great attention to detail, which did not go unnoticed. The cleanliness was unsurpassed. Weather fantastic, so most mornings gazing out to sea sitting on the patio with breakfast - perfect! Bowjy ticked all our holiday wish-list boxes, so we will definitely be returning.

We've been to Bowjy so many times that it's difficult to say new things, except to say that our repeat visits are for a reason! Despite poor weather we've had a fantastic holiday. Thank you again for sharing this small part of heaven with us. See you next year.

What a wonderful welcome! Spectacular views from the conservatory and from the garden - really relaxing. Bowjy is just lovely - already booked to come back next year. Saw a seal down on the beach, and at Lowland Point on the walk to Coverack and back. Lovely lunches at Roskilly's and really tasty pizzas from the woodfired oven in the evenings. Not to mention the ice creams....We have had a fabulously lazy, relaxing time here and will be back next September.

Our second visit to Chenhale and our first time in Bowjy. Have spent a lovely, relaxing week here in this wonderful place. Plenty of ambling walks through woods full of bluebells, wild garlic and birdsong. Heard our first cuckoo! Far too many ice creams at Roskilly's!! The scenery at Kynance Cove took our breath away, as did the descent on rather slippy steps! Hoping to return in the not too distant future.
