“Staying at Glen Cottage Annexe was a wonderful experience, it was so cosy, relaxing, clean and well-equipped.”

The garden was an absolute joy. The best thing about it was the owner, Mark. He was exceptionally friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our daily chats with him very much.

“Our holiday was made all the better for the owners friendliness, and beautiful garden.”

From the moment we arrived to departure Marks daily chats were informative and interesting. The annex is a real chill out zone, very clean and has everything you need for your stay. There are lots of different areas in the garden to enjoy too, which we took full advantage of. A 5 minute walk takes you to the beach and the open coast paths either way, of which we made good use of as we were very lucky with the weather. Can’t fault this stay 10/10.

“Glen Cottage Annex”

Beautiful cottage and outstanding garden in a rural peaceful location yet only 5 minutes walk from the beach. Mark, the owner, is a very hospitable host and nothing is too much trouble he even provided a cream tea on arrival.

Mr Ballinger August 2020

“The host, Mark Brown was extremely helpful and hospitable.”

From the cream teas on arrival, general advice about travelling around the area, and providing us with cuttings from his beautiful garden, Mark went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful time in Cornwall!

“Lovely stay at Glen Cottage, Gunwalloe”

This was our 2nd holiday in Glen Cottage, our 1st being in August 1993! This time round we had a lovely stay despite the appalling weather. Many memories were recalled this time round. The garden is extensive, colourful and beautiful - in all weathers! Mark Brown, the owner and host, is very helpful and caring with good local knowledge. Mark very kindly gave us some cuttings from the superb garden at Glen Cottage.

Mr Turner July 2019

“The whole experience of Glen Cottage was just magical, our welcome by Mark and the wonderful atmosphere that he manages to create helped us to totally relax.”

The garden, the sun house and the general surroundings and Marks continuous hard work to keep it so, just terrific. Gunwalloe is a great place to be because you are well placed for most places to visit and plenty of places to eat out at. We certainly did not want to leave when our time was up. Thanks Mark and thanks Glen Cottage.

Mrs Vines June 2019

“We have stayed at many self-catering cottages and this one is up there with the best.”

Mark was a quite excellent host. Nothing was too much trouble and the cream tea on arrival was most unexpected and a lovely surprise. The garden was a delight. Thanks also for the super-glue and sorry about the key fob!

The property

In one of the most interesting locations on the Lizard, Glen Cottage is a semi-detached addition to the original old thatched cottage, convenient for walks to the beautiful Church Cove.

Furnished with care and attention this is an ideal setting for any couple to take a very peaceful, romantic holiday.

Set back from the village street the attractive double aspect bedroom, approached by a pine staircase, looks straight out across a valley over many acres of farmland.

The owner, who lives in the thatched cottage, is very friendly and permits use of the beautiful landscaped gardens with ponds, shrubs and plants, and guests have the use of a private summer house reached by a pretty garden archway.

This is a very peaceful village with nearby Halzephron pub (serving excellent food).

Close by is the renowned Mullion Golf Course with amazing sea views to admire while you play.

There are plenty of choices for coastal walks to the east or west or inland around the unique fresh water lake of Loe Bar; an important spot for birdlife.

Within two miles is the sandy Church Cove which is part of this dramatic coastline managed by the National Trust.

Good for bathing and surfing it also boasts the unusual sight of a small medieval Church tucked into the cliff and sand dunes, and still used for weddings and services today.

The market town of Helston is only five miles away with plenty of shopping opportunities, pubs, restaurants and entertainment.

Glen cottage is a most charming holiday cottage in one of the most enjoyable locations in Cornwall.
