Parc An Grouse is a small group of family run barns, situated overlooking the ocean, close to a quiet, secluded sandy beach which is just a short walk through the countryside. Manacle View, featured here, is only a short distance away from the heart of St Keverne with its lovely village square, church, two pubs, butchers and shop. It is located on the beautiful Lizard Peninsula, which is the most south-westerly point in England. This single-storey, semi-detached, barn conversion is the ideal place to stay if you enjoy walking, as the South West Coastal Path is just at the bottom of the fields giving way to many stunning walks.
The picturesque fishing villages of Coverack, Cadgwith, Porthallow and Mullion are all close by. Cadgwith is like stepping back in time with thatched cottages and colourful fishing boats, a great place to source fresh fish or crab for your evening meal and there are even regular sea shanty sing along evenings. Walk the thick stone wall at Mullion harbour featured in the TV series ’Poldark’, or visit the chocolate factory and visitor centre.
Coverack, with its a wide sandy beach and quaint harbour, is well worth a visit, or Roskilly’s Farm for a cream tea, but be sure to leave room to sample their locally made ice cream and fudge. The Lizard Peninsula is the perfect place to unwind, and here you can enjoy activities such as walking, bird watching and fishing, or simply relax on the patio with a good book and watch the sun setting. The area will appeal to small families or couples all year round.
With great road access, it is a perfect location for exploring slightly further afield including Porthleven, Praa Sands, the historic town of Helston, famous for its floral dance, Flambards Theme Park, the National Seal Sanctuary at Gweek and the beautiful scenery of the Helford River and creeks, made famous by Daphne Du Maurier’s ’Frenchman’s Creek’. The area is popular with scuba divers with a local centre at Porthallow. Cycling, walking and horse riding are all available locally. Beach 1 mile. Shop, pubs and restaurant 500 yards.

Confirmed Guest
Nice place tucked away from the mainstream areas, but in easy reach of the whole of the south coast of Cornwall. Friendly owners introduced themselves and had supplied milk, tea, coffee and biscuits. The place was very clean and well stocked with bathroom and kitchen equipment. Thanks for checking in with us before we left for our next week's adventures.

Comfortable and roomy, good location and nice friendly village. The outside sitting area was great and having laundry facilities was good too. Sue and Chris were very pleasant and helpful. We would recommend and will definitely visit again.
