Clotted Cream is a picture-perfect Cornish cottage in a dramatic location, with high cliffs and rolling countryside. It's a romantic place, and you feel the sense of history when you enter the grounds (it dates back to the 1600s). You’re isolated, of course, but that feeling of being away from it all is precious. There’s something magical about watching the cows graze through your living room window. The furniture is simple but delightful, and when the weather turns, the stoves ensure that the cottage gets very cosy very quickly.

Home truths:
*When we visited, the wi-fi was a bit patchy
*It's part of the charm, but the isolation means that you'll need a car to get around
