Badgers Cottage

Badgers Cottage is one of four holiday cottages on a 23-acre country house estate in Cury Cross Lanes on the Lizard, hosted by Paula. A double and a twin bedroom sleep four, sharing the property's single bathroom.

Guests share a heated outdoor pool with the estate's other cottages, alongside a garden, barbecue, lavender fields and resident horse, sheep and chickens. WiFi, parking, a dishwasher, washing machine and an EV charging point are all included. Dogs are not accepted.

Poldhu Cove, where Marconi made the first transatlantic wireless transmission in 1901, is 1.4 miles away. Gunwalloe Church Cove, with its part-13th-century church set in the dunes, is 1.6 miles, and Polurrian Beach is 1.8 miles. The South West Coast Path runs close by, and the estate's open outlook makes for good stargazing. Mullion Cove is about 2 miles west and Helston, with its full range of shops, about 5 miles north.

Badgers Cottage holds a 4.6 out of 5 rating, though from only four reviews. Cleanliness scored 5 out of 5, with equipment, comfort and location each at 4.

**Best for:** A family wanting a shared heated pool, estate grounds, animal encounters and EV charging within 2 miles of three beaches.

**Less good for:** Guests needing a second bathroom, step-free access, a private pool or space for a dog.
