Just show me Cornwall Cottages
Cornwall lies at the most westerly point of the British Isles
and has a relatively mild climate, thanks to the warming effect of
the Gulf Stream. Home to superb golden beaches, tumbling surf, fine
dining, first class tourist attractions, excellent Cornish cottage
accommodation and a fair smattering of historical, literary and
mythical connections, it is a beguiling destination for a beach or
country cottage holiday whatever the time of year.
Our hand picked collection of Cornish cottages and holiday homes
are located in the most popular areas, such as Newquay, with its
excellent beaches, surfing and family-friendly activities, Falmouth, with its
sixteenth century castle, golden sands and stunning gardens and the
city of Truro,
as well as quieter spots for a Cornwall cottage retreat, near to
pretty fishing villages such as Mevagissey,
Perranporth, Port
Isaac and Polperro. We also have Cornwall cottages tucked away
inland, in areas such as Camelford and
Launceston, giving
easy access to beautiful Bodmin Moor.
A Cornwall cottage holiday is the ideal way to experience all that
this historic and beautiful region has to offer. Discover it at
your own pace, combining days at the beach with visits to the
hidden interior. Enjoy the rugged beauty of the coastline around
mythical Tintagel Castle and
delve deep into the world of Arthurian legend, or simply stretch
out on the sands at the many popular bathing beaches such as
Hayle, Gwithian and
Falmouth or around Bude, in the north of the county. Track down the
impossibly pretty fishing villages of Mevagissey, Polperro, Port
Isaac and Perranporth, enjoying time at the golden sands before a
leisurely lunch in a local seafood restaurant or quayside bar. Make
the journey to iconic Land's End, visit St. Michael's Mount
near Penzance, discover
the hidden beauty of the Penwith, Roseland, Rame or Lizard
peninsulas or head inland to really get away from it all, and
uncover the quiet, awe-inspiring beauty of Bodmin Moor.
There is artistic heritage in abundance for those seeking a little
culture on their Cornwall cottage break. The Tate and Barbara
Hepworth Museum, plus a host of smaller galleries and workshops,
can be enjoyed in and around St. Ives; follow the
arts and crafts trail around neighbouring St. Agnes or pick
up the local literary connections of famous local authors such as
Thomas Hardy and Daphné du Maurier. Or why not experience
Shakespeare in a cliff-top setting at the open air Minack Theatre
at Porthcurno near Penzance.
Those seeking an active holiday may wish to tackle a section of the
famous South
West Coastal path, with stunning sea views and
exhilarating cliff top walking, the inland Saint's Way from
Padstow or
perhaps part of the Camel Trail, by bike to Bodmin Moor, and
discover the inland beauty so often overlooked by those on a
Cornwall cottage holiday. Book in for a surfing lesson at Fistral
Beach in Newquay; try coasteering, horse-riding, deep-sea or even
shark fishing around Looe. Maybe a gentle
round or two of golf on one of Cornwall's many fine courses is
more your thing. If so, you'll be well catered for with some
fine courses, including those at Lostwithiel,
St
Austell or Bude's lovely cliff-top links course.
Families on a Cornwall cottage holiday are well catered for with a
host of things to see and do away from the lure of the beaches.
Spend a day at the Eden
Project near St. Austell and explore its futuristic
biomes, or take in Newquay's Zoo, Marine Aquarium or Steam
Railway. Cornwall is blessed with many fine historic homes, such as
Lanhydrock, Pencarrow and stunning Mount Edgecumbe on the Rame
peninsula, and many of these country mansions have developed
woodland walks, themed trails and adventure playgrounds on their
estates to keep younger visitors entertained. Cornwall is also the
greenest of counties, with an abundance of breathtaking gardens.
Sub-tropical Trebah near Falmouth, Trevarno near Helston and The
Lost Gardens of Heligan near pretty Mevagissey are three of the
most famous jewels in Cornwall's horticultural crown, but there
are many more stunning gardens to be enjoyed throughout the county.
There are play parks, farm parks, steam and nostalgia railways,
such as the Bodmin & Wenford and the Lappa Valley Railway in
Newquay, adventure centres and theme parks, heritage centres,
museums and ancient towns and villages to be visited.
Of course, fine dining comes naturally in this part of the world,
with the freshest of the local catch served at tables up and down
the county each day. Food lovers will find a Padstow cottage stay a
particularly rewarding experience. Home to Rick Stein's cookery
school, Padstow has a high concentration of world renowned dining
establishments and eateries. Meanwhile, stunning Watergate Bay
is home to Jamie Oliver's Fifteen Cornwall. But there's no
need to spend a fortune at a celebrity chef's restaurant, for
along the length and breadth of Cornwall, from Bude on the Devon
border to the Rame peninsula in the east, there is always fine
regional produce and mouth-watering seafood to be relished.
Whether you're looking for a romantic cottage for two, a
stylish beach-side cottage, a large cottage for a group of friends
or a quiet, rural property, rest assured there is a Sykes Cornwall
cottage waiting for you.
