We love Carn Goon. It's a proper home. We have had such a lovely holiday and will definitely come here again. You have such a marvelous location, wild & woolly but peaceful. Marvelous sunsets, wonderful birds, a great place for us and the boys. Thank You.

Carn Goon exceeded all our expectations. The house is in total harmony with it's surroundings and the beach theme certainly struck a chord with us! We went on some great walks and the weather was very kind to us. We'd love to come back to Cornwall and Carn Goon again. Wonderful experience.

This is the first time ever I have never wanted to go home, what a wonderful week we have had! The sun has shone all week for us. Kynance Cove is a magical place and we have enjoyed our daily walks along the Lizard. Thank you to the owners for sharing their house with us, loved the decor and gardens, in particular the cammomile lawn. We will be back !!!

What a wonderful break !! Really needed a tranquil experience and you have provided! Flowers were a lovely greeting. A delightful holiday house for every age! Really enjoyed the sunset on the verandah with the bats arriving about 9.30pm! Saw no cat unfortunately but loads of butterflies and birds. Thank you so much.

We have had a good week in this lovely spot the view from the balcony is stunning. Considering there were floods all over the country the rain seemed to pass by us, we've seen the sun everyday. Church Cove well worth a visit.

How great to have Kynance on the doorstep. Have enjoyed our week here very much. However the weather prevented us from enjoying the sea view to the full. House and amenities are excellent. Thank you.

We all loved your beach house, we fell in love with the way you have brought everything to do with the sea together. our stay here coincided with five days of truly magical weather - the first cold days of the year, clear air and fantastic views from all the cliffs. We will be back.

As refugees from 'Bass Point' we already knew about the tranquility and beauty of The Lizard and "Carn Goon" did not disappoint (and we can still see the lighthouse flashing). It was lovely to be walking distance from our favourite beach (which will be better still when the tide brings the sand at the back of the beach back!!). The house was gorgeous - a real 'home from home' - we would love to live here!! It was a challenge deciding where to sleep! We will be back!! Many thanks."

Fabulous location, beautifully maintained cottage with stunning views of the surrounding area. A peaceful retreat from busy life, yet with 21st century amenities such as Sky TV and Wi-Fi. We enjoyed a tasty and well presented meal at he Mount Haven Hotel in Marazion overlooking St Michaels Mount - well worth that special treat. Take advantage of sunbathing in the meadow or just relaxing on the veranda with long cool drinks. There is so much to see and do, you will need more than one trip to fit it all in !
