We had a lovely week in this property. It was clean and cosy and had everything we needed. The views are amazing and we hope to return at some point in the future.

My husband and I had our honeymoon here this week. The views are heavenly and we felt so close to one another and to God, who blessed us abundantly. We will always have such loving memories of this most special place. We shall return.

I feel treated, renewed and very privileged to have shared time in such a gorgeous haven. A little slice - well quite a big one really - of absolute heaven on Earth. Much love and gratitude.

There are almost no words to express the utter peace, joy and wonder of this beautiful place. It's the most stunning location. Alternatively an entire book might do...skyscapes,seascapes, sun rises, moon and water and those stars - Orion front and centre. Porthbeer the new favourite beach - swims contagious. The fire, the patio - absolutely perfect.Relaxed, restored, blissed and blessed and very grateful.

Fabulous location and views to die for! Great to have good parking on site, not always so in Coverack. Very comfortable. Handy for the village centre and beach.
-
Stunning location in a charming Cornish village.If what you want is a gorgeous sea views and a place to stay away from it all on the edge of England then this is the place for you. Easy to access, somewhere to put the car that you probably wonât need until you drive home, and a well-appointed property.

We had a brilliant time at Dolphins in Coverack. As soon as we arrived we fell in love with the property and felt instantly relaxed! The panoramic sea views were stunning! Good sized accommodation with a very large comfortable bed in the master bedroom. The upstairs kitchen and living area was very modern and spacious and the property itself is just a 5 minute walk into the village. Coverack itself had everything there we needed too. All in all a brilliant stay and we would love to return!
-
Wow! What an amazing cottage with stunning sea views. We had a fabulous week in Coverack in your beautiful cottage.

We've had a wonderful two weeks here in such a beautiful house. The views are spectacular. We are looking forward to coming in September 2022. We've already got our holiday booked for next year. This is a lovely, wonderful little gem.
-
Our 16th time in Coverack, first at Dolphins. Loved the warmth and features. Plenty of coastal walks. Looking forward to returning next year.
-
What a fabulous holiday ! The accommodation was stunning! The walk up the hill is a challenge but helps burn off all the ice creams!
-
Another wonderful week here. Te house did us proud again with three generations loving the space and the views. Weather has been amazing so every day has been spent in, on or by the waves (with the exception of the last day when we had a lovely trip to Roskilly's) Can't recommend the pizza's from Archie's loft - some of the nicest we've had. The sculpture park was a great hidden delight. Hopefully back gain soon.

Firstly, thank you for sharing your lovely home. When we first set foot into The Dolphins it was a wow with the view taking centre stage. The weather could have been a little kinder to us but we feel we made most of the days that we had a good weather and the two days that we didn't we enjoyed the house and Coverack. The pizzas at Archie's loft are definitely worth a go for certain. We ventured out to Port Isaac and St Ives and both were great. If you have a car and don't mind a trip, give it a go. Falmouth was nice, and the ferry across to St Olawes was good. A great week we had and really made the most of the scrabble board.
-
Wonderful views of the sea from almost every window in Dolphins. Even when the weather was not so kind, the views were engaging. The upstairs living area has everything you need to cook up a feast or just relax and stare out of the windows. The beds were really comfortable with quality linen and pillows. The terraced outdoor space with barbecue has uninterrupted views of the bay and is beautifully planted. The 2 parking spaces are an extra bonus in Coverack!. We have no hesitation in recommending Dolphins and have booked again for next year. Itâs all about the views!

The wait was absolutely worth it! We booked for April 2020 but covid intervented. Thank you for allowing us to re-book. Of the seven properties we have stayed in at Coverack this has to be the pick! A very unpretentious exterior behind the fantastic views and beautiful interior. We have been blessed with a wonderful sunny week with a mix of calm seas and brisk east winds creating fantastic white horses. This is the first time we have been at this time of year and enjoyed the rich variety of blossoms and blooms, birds nesting and gulls and gannets. We have already booked our next visit.
-
What a beautiful house in such a fantastic location ! The views are something special ! Coverack is also lovely and it is very relaxing walking down the hill to the harbour. There are some great places to eat and drink. Fantastic House, Fantastic Location, Fantastic Views's.

This has been my 50th birthday treat with my husband and son and we have had such a lovely time. This house is amazing, such a wonderful experience to be able to stay somewhere like this. Really love Coverack itself and not enough time to see all the the things and places in the Lizard - will have to come back.
-
Website great. Booking process straight forward. We loved it and didn't want to leave. I think we will definitely use you again maybe even the same property.
