The Lizard Peninsula is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty, and due to the mild climate and special geology, unique natural flora and fauna abound at different times of the year. This natural beauty is supplemented by the many famous gardens which are within easy reach of Colvennor.

The small harbour of Mullion Cove and the Mullion Golf Club with its nationally renowned course on the cliff top are nearby. The ancient market town of Helston maintains an old fashioned feel and has an interesting history, including the world famous Flora Day in early May.



Kynance Cove, Poldhu Cove, Cadgwith, Helford, Gunwalloe Cove, Porthleven and Lizard Point are all within six miles, and Colvennor acts as a good base for touring South West Cornwall with Penzance, St Ives, Truro and Falmouth all within easy reach. The Eden Project is just over one hours drive away to the east as is the Minack Theatre to the west. The Coastal Path is reached in one mile, and walkers are welcome. We have facilities to store muddy boots and to dry walking clothes, and we are happy to provide transport within the Lizard area to enable ramblers to undertake non-circular walks.There is also a reliable bus service which will stop at the end of the lane.

Eating out in Cornwall is becoming an ever increasing pleasure, with an award winning pub and restaurant only ten minutes drive away. Within a few miles there are restaurants and Pubs to meet every taste and pocket. We maintain a comprehensive list of places to eat with sample menus in many cases, and are very happy to make reservations when requested.

Whatever the aim of your holiday you will find Colvennor Farmhouse a relaxing and welcoming place to stay.
