Cornwall erupts into life like a dormant volcano during the glistening summer months, yet the rugged charm is a beautiful sight all-year-round. Luckily, this cosy retreat is expertly placed for winter retreats and summer sauntering.

When the sun shines on the striking shoreline, make sure to head to the gorgeous beaches that shape the Cornish coast. Falmouth is just a short drive away, whilst the more famed beach towns are under an hour away. If you want to keep things local, Truro is fourteen minutes away and provides a hint of urban life in the sprawling county.

Of course, you can always have lazy days in the village to immerse yourself in the Cornish lifestyle. Mosey through the cobbled streets and stop off for a glass of cider and a pasty in the traditional pub. For an even more intimate experience, dine alfresco on the open-air table back at the cottage.

If you're visiting during the colder months, the restful abode is the perfect place to snuggle up in the evening. Underfloor heating, a fireplace and deluxe bathtub provide blissful comfort for cosy nights in. When you're fully relaxed, curl up on the sofa with a film in the background for evening entertainment.
