About Cadgwith Elm

Cadgwith Elm is one of a handful of small cosy holiday cottages perched above the historic fishing port of Cadgwith Cove. You can’t help but be impressed by the sweeping sea views and secluded location of the cottage, kept cosy by a well-stocked woodburning stove in its lounge.. 

From the large enclosed garden, look down on the village below and watch the fishing boats set off for the daily catch., Head into the village and explore a place that time forgot, with its former pilchard cellars, winches and the old lifeboat house. The locals will welcome you with open arms into the village pub where folk and traditional Cornish singing take place twice a week.

Further afield, explore the Lizard Peninsula. The area is rich in history with a landscape to match. Explore the stunning coastal paths that run along it’s ragged edge and discover hidden villages.
