A beautiful cottage over looking the blue sea. There’s a cove, a point and Coverack just a short walk along the coast. It is in a very quiet area and would recommend for a relaxing holiday.

Modern,clean,well equipped apartment. Dog friendly! With beautiful views and stunning coastal walks and beaches on your doorstep. Headlands hideaway is just that,tucked away in a quiet,peaceful location. Which is just what we wanted for a restful holiday .Basic amenities can be bought in Coverack village,which is a short,pleasant coastal walk away. (We did an online shop beforehand which was delivered an hour after our arrival). Some people might find the location to remote, but if you want to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life then this could be the place for you!
