“Been here before.”

That speaks for itself!!

That speaks for itself!!

Mrs Guy July 2021

“This property is well loved and cared for in a hidden gem of a village in Cornwall.”

With stunning views over the coast and a short walk into the village. We have returned year on year as we love it so much

- Mrs Guy, July 2021
Mrs Hillocks June 2021

“We have stayed at apartment 17 before and cannot fault it’s location.”

If we had one negative comment it would be that the apartment is starting to look a little dated and could do with a freshen up

- Mrs Hillocks, June 2021
Mrs Casey June 2021

“Fantastic place to stay, had everything you needed , views from balcony were amazing, could have sat there every day !”

Only one annoying thing, was trying to get in front door !! Having put code in it only worked 2 out of ten times ! But apart from that brilliant

“Apartment 17, Headland, Coverack did not fail to impress!”

Beautiful, cozy apartment with spectacular views. Very clean and lots of added extras such as a telescope and binoculars with which to spy all the wildlife around the headland. There was also a lovely welcome pack which included a cream tea! The only drawback was that the bedroom backs onto the kitchen/living area of the next apartment and unfortunately for us the people in there were quite noisy some nights and kept me awake.

“1) Regarding the property, it is a lovely property and the location and views are excellent which really make this apartment so desirable (this is our fourth visit!”

). However, although perfectly adequate in most respects, there are a couple of changes that should be considered for improvement. The new 32" TV is perfect for an apartment of this size, but it dominates the space by a picture window with lovely views towards Falmouth. It would be a great improvement if the TV were to be hung from the wall above the dining table on a hinged bracket - this would free up the window space to take an easy chair such as is in the bedroom, which gives much pleasure with the superb ever-changing views. Secondly, the two-seater settee, although adequate, is far from comfortable for extended periods, particularly for those with back problems. 2) Regarding the main (hotel) building, a small luggage lift / dumb waiter would make life far easier to take baggage up and down the two storeys to the apartment, especially for elderly or infirm visitors. 3) Regarding Sykes, the company was very helpful in obtaining Covid 19 precautions being taken within the apartment and communal areas, however we were continually bombarded with emails relating to additional bookings, before, during and after our holiday. Please refrain from doing this as it simply detracts from the already booked holiday - far too much information and unwanted irritations. I'm afraid to say that it's a big "turn off" from using Sykes again. However, we did thoroughly enjoy our holiday.

Mrs Braker September 2020

“Just brilliant from start to finish.”

Emails on key collection clear and easy. Excellent service. Apt 17 is just lovely and the views are stunning. Could of sat on that balcony the whole week just looking at that view but sadly the weather had other ideas but we did get 3 nice days. Will definitely book again.

- Mrs Braker, September 2020
Mrs Reid July 2020

“This is a really lovely, well equipped apartment with absolutely stunning sea views from every window.”

I would most definitely recommend it. The only criticism I have is that it is on the 2nd floor with no lift which made getting our suitcases etc up & down very difficult as both my husband & myself have health problems & he has mobility problems - I feel the lack of a lift should be made clear on the booking website. That said, I would still return in the future but would probably change how I pack.

Mr Wollacott October 2019

“This is the first time we have booked a holiday with Sykes and it won't be the last!”

The quality of the customer service was top notch from day one with constant email reminders which we found helpful and the contacts available in the event of any problems showed continued service. The price was what we thought was very reasonable but on arrival found that the quality of the apartment exceeded that price. We are already looking at the Sykes website to book again for 2020. Thanks for everything Mike and Julie Wollacott

“From arrival to departure, everything was perfect.”

?We could not have asked for a better holiday.

- Mrs Pattinson, August 2019
Mr Neil August 2019

“Headland 17 is a beautifully presented and very well-equipped apartment in a fabulous location, with amazing views from the balcony.”

We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the world go by, from walkers along the coastal path, to surfers and bathers on the beach in the small cove below, to yachts and ships out in Falmouth Bay. Coverack is also a lovely little village with a couple of excellent cafes, a pub, fish and chip shop, gift shops, and a couple of restaurants. There is a lively programme of events during the summer and we attended the village fete one afternoon, which was a pleasant way to spend an hour or two. We were there during the week of 9th-16th August when it was Pirate and Mermaid week, with the village fete, regatta, photo exhibition, and Pisky Trail, so lots of different things for all ages. It's also ideal for exploring Helford River and the Lizard Peninsula, as you can be in the heart of both within 20 minutes. This was our second visit to this apartment, having also visited last year but it probably won't be our last!

Mr & Mrs Harvey May 2019

“Sykes emailing directions and entry instuctions a week prior was very helpful (and very accurate).”

The apartment is amazing - veiws from 3 sides. We could lay in the comfy king size bed and see the stars at night, shower in the morning while gazing at the sea, and have lunch on the balcony with breathtaking views. Although the apartment is not very big, it was very comfortable, perfect for 2. Biscuits, tea, coffee, milk and flowers were gratefully received. We swam in the sea, on the private beach - was a little chilly in early May. Most days we walked (15 mins) into the very quaint fishing village of Coverack with cafes, pub, fish and chip shop, small grocery shop and gift shops. We enjoyed walking The Lizard, Church Cove and Kynance Cove is a must. Also had great fun at Helston's Floral Day. We will definitely return.

- Mr & Mrs Harvey, May 2019
Mrs Harris April 2019

“Apartment 17 was excellent.”

The location was perfect and offered stunning views with great walks right outside the door. Comfortable and well equipped and the flowers on the table were a nice touch as were the biscuits and milk. The only small criticism is that the oven was very greasy and although we only used it to warm plates it did give off a nasty smell as the grease heated up.Otherwise - perfect thank you.

- Mrs Harris, April 2019
Mr Payne March 2019

“The flat is lovely, very cosy and in a superb location with lovely views of the cove and the coast in both directions.”

Coverack is an excellent base for discovering the Lizard peninsula.

- Mr Payne, March 2019
Mrs Carpenter March 2019

“Lovely apartment and amazing views.”

- Mrs Carpenter, March 2019
Ms Gultekin August 2018

“We have just returned from a fantastic week in this lovely apartment.”

It’s brilliantly equipped for a self catering holiday, there’s everything you could possibly wish for. The village of Coverack is about a 10 minute walk away. We are missing the apartment and it’s stunning views already and we have booked again for next year.

- Ms Gultekin, August 2018
Mr Neil August 2018

“A beautifully refurbished apartment in a stunning location!”

It is just the right size for two. A 10-15 minute walk along the coastal path brings you into Coverack, with a variety of eating options; including a good pub, a few cafes (including one for takeaway pizza), a fish and chip shop, a restaurant and a hotel restaurant open to non-residents. Views from the apartment, the coastal path, and Coverack are exceptional! Would love to go back!

The property

Apartment 17 is located within the former Coverack Headland hotel, a fine Edwardian building, situated on the headland known as Chynalls point above the unspoilt fishing village of Coverack.

This recently refurbished accommodation provides a haven of peace and tranquillity in idyllic surroundings protected by the National Trust and designated a site of special scientific interest.

This apartment has unrivalled sea views from all rooms (even the bathroom !) extending out across Chynalls point to the horizon and on down to Coverack village.

Coverack headland has its own beach, reached by a footpath.

It is a secluded sandy cove, which is ideal for swimming or beach games. There are extensive lawned gardens and a tennis court for guests use.

The light and airy accommodation has a high standard of coordinating decor, quality furnishings throughout and a well equipped kitchen.

The apartment has double glazing and electric heating.

There is one bedroom, a bathroom (with bath and shower) and open plan living/dining/kitchen area.

Facing out to sea is the private balcony (complete with table and chairs) - a wonderful vantage point to have breakfast, dinner or to simply relax and enjoy the view.

The apartment has WiFi Broadband and its own designated parking.

Coverack is an unspoilt fishing village just 0.5 mile away from the apartment with a local pub, a restaurant, cafe and gift/general goods shop.

A historic village with an active fishing harbour and a real sense of community - indeed you may purchase delightful Cornish pasties and cakes from Elizabeth, a local resident, for that special homemade treat.

The apartment is ideally located as a base from which to explore many of Cornwall's main tourist attractions (The Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, Newquay and St Ives), dramatic scenery, cultural heritage and stunning gardens.

In addition the South West Coast Path (just over the garden fence) leads to Lands end in the South and Helford to the North.

Also, Terence Coventry's sculpture park is exceptional and is located in the adjacent field to the apartment - you can even see some of the exhibits from the balcony.

About the location

COVERACK

St Keverne 2 miles; Helston 12 miles; Falmouth 18 miles.

Coverack is a small fishing village on the Lizard Peninsula, a few miles from Lizard Point in Cornwall, the most southerly point on mainland Britain. Coverack is a beautiful and peaceful place to escape the main tourist routes and offers a beach in the sheltered bay, which is ideal for swimming, windsurfing and kayaking, as well as shops, pub and restaurants. St Keverne (4 miles from Poldowrian) has a Post Office, shops and 2 pubs. The Lizard Peninsula has many spectacular coves and beaches and is noted for its rare geology and plants. From Lizard Point there are wonderful sea views from the windswept cliffs, which provide fabulous walking opportunities along this stretch of the South West Coast Path. Inland is the market town of Helston, known for its Flora Day Festival, and in Gweek is The Cornish Seal Sanctuary. Flambards theme park is just 20 minutes' drive away and just over ten miles away is the Culdrose Airfield, where once a year the public are welcome to come and meet the Fleet Air Arm, the Royal Navy’s flying force. Coverack is ideally located for exploring The Lizard Peninsula, as well as the lovely seaside towns of St Ives and Falmouth and many other beaches and pretty villages.
