Begin your Cornish adventure by waking up to sweeping seaside views and enjoying a homemade brunch. Our holiday homes are equipped with fully functional kitchens, so you can whip up your own meals using locally sourced ingredients from the nearby farm shops and markets. Or you could head down to the local cafes and bakeries for traditional Cornish flavours, from saffron buns to yummy scones with fresh clotted cream and jam. After brunch, meander along the sandy stretches and breathe in the fresh salty air while enjoying the stunning views. With miles of unspoiled beaches, there is always a new stretch to discover. When the midday sun is at its highest, rejuvenate yourself with a dip in the azure waters. There are plenty of hidden coves and bays, each offering a unique swimming experience. Some of the most popular swimming spots include Porthmeor Beach in St Ives, Fistral Beach in Newquay, and Daymer Bay near Padstow.
