We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wayside and are definitely considering returning. From the offset, we really loved the decor and the welcoming feel. The welcome treats on arrival were ideal after travelling and a really thoughtful touch. Everything has been fully considered when it comes to comfort and enjoying the holiday with ease; the dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, fast internet and large TV were great additions.

Wayside is in an excellent location, with everything you need within walking distance, including a pub, shop, pharmacy and chip shop. It can be a little noisy at times due to proximity of the local shops and one way system but this did not bother us at all. The property has wooden shutter style blinds fitted on each window which allows for privacy and control of light coming through.

We will definitely be returning and are looking forward to it already.

Holidays in Mullion

Situated in a National Landscape (formerly Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) on the Lizard Peninsula, Mullion is a quaint village much unchanged by time. Its harbour, now owned by the National Trust, was built in the 1890’s for the pilchard fishing industry. Half a mile offshore is the uninhabited Mullion Island, home to large colonies of sea birds, also protected by the National Trust.

Famous for its history of smuggling, Mullion is the largest village on The Lizard, with a working harbour and the 15th century church of St Mellanus. This traditional Cornish village is perfect for a relaxing holiday for families or couples alike. Visitors can experience the village lifestyle; pop to the shops for some local produce, purchase cake from the independent cafes and enjoy a drink at the village pub. Additionally, it's a great base for those looking to explore the beautiful scenery on The Lizard. Walk along the South West Coast Path and be treated to some of the best views in Cornwall. 

Whilst Mullion is a relatively small village, there’s plenty to do during your holiday. As well as the facilities within the village itself, visitors can pop to the local craft centre, visit one of the nearby beaches, enjoy a round of golf or go kayaking from the harbour.

Attractive holiday cottage very central to amenities and the fantastic surrounding area. Immediately loved the sunny decor and cleanliness of the property. We stayed in the property when the weather was glorious and it felt light and airy…. Little bit noisy in a morning with the windows open for anyone who prefers a peaceful start to the day but this did not detract from the overall enjoyment of staying at Waysjde.
