The best area to stay in The Lizard is the village of Lizard, located at the southern tip of the peninsula.

This village serves as the main hub for visitors to the Lizard Peninsula. It's a small, walkable community with a selection of local shops, pubs, and cafes clustered around the village green. The iconic Lizard Lighthouse is just a short walk away, offering stunning views of the coastline. The South West Coast Path also runs directly through the village, providing easy access to scenic walks.

Couples looking for a quiet retreat will appreciate Lizard village. Its relaxed pace and access to natural beauty, like Kynance Cove a few miles west, make it an ideal base for exploring the dramatic Cornish coast. The village also offers a few welcoming pubs for evenings.

For those seeking a more secluded experience with direct beach access, Mullion Cove, a few miles north of Lizard village, is another excellent option.

The best time to visit The Lizard is generally during the late spring and summer months, from May to September, when the weather is mildest and the daylight hours are longest.

May and June offer pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds, making it ideal for those who enjoy hiking the coastal paths and exploring the coves without the peak summer rush. The wildflowers along the South West Coast Path are particularly beautiful during this period.

Families often find July and August to be the most convenient months, coinciding with school holidays. While these months are the busiest, they offer the warmest weather, which is great for enjoying the beaches and water activities. You'll find longer opening hours for local attractions and more options for boat trips around the peninsula.

For travelers seeking a quieter experience with comfortable temperatures, September is an excellent choice.
