Holiday Cottages
We have a large number of holiday cottages in several different regions across Cornwall. Please click on one of the regions below to find out about the properties available in that area.
Cornwall's biggest seaside resort, Newquay, grew here for a reason. Here is the most magnificent combination of sea (surf), sand (huge beaches) and cliffs (caves). The theme continues for miles North and South. The harbour is very pretty (a few fishing boats with sails) and bright lights and amusements galore.
North Cornwall
Superb beaches (surfing and sandcastles), Atlantic rollers, high cliffs with caves, old fishing villages and pretty harbours in almost any sheltered dent in the cliffs (Port Isaac) or on estuaries (Padstow). Marvellous cliff-top walks. Inland - off the main road from which the countryside often looks dull -you quickly plunge into deep and beautiful wooded valleys. North of Bude, where building-free combes lead to the sea, are the least people.
End Of England
Feels like an island, a different world: terrific cliffs and headlands, sandy coves, light houses, ruined tin mine buildings spectacularly sited, high walled fishing harbours, coves with little beaches, a few huge sandy beaches, the minack theatre built into the cliffs; and inland, farms and moorland hills, hrehistoric remains, granite villages. Penzance for town attractions, St. Ives for art (Tate Gallery).
The Lizard
Several exceptionally beautiful coves (sandy beaches), fishing villages, and the very lovely Helford River the epitome of the Daphne du Maurier wooded-creek Cornwall. In its flat middle is the emptiness of Goonhilly Downs with their huge, rather spectacular dish aerials for satellite tracking. Cliffs, of course - and a lighthouse at England's southernmost.
Cornwall's 'Med'
Woods, creeks, big cargo ships 'resting', hidden in broad wooded rivers: farms; luxuriant gardens (and one very special churchyard); sailing boats; a shelthered deep-blue-sea coast remarkably unspoilt, of beaches, headlands, small fishing villages, Mevagissey and St. Mawes; Truro, Falmouth and Carrick Roads. The mildest climate in England.
South Cornwall
Between the River Tamar and River Fowey is one of the loveliest inland bits of Cornwall: wooded hilly farmland, deep valleys. Coast of sandy bays, cliffs, estuaries. Looe is its main seaside place, split by its very beautiful river. Polperro, perhaps the most famous fishing village; Kingsand, perhaps the prettiest; and Plymouth Sound.
