A cottage to help you feel restored and refreshed; uninterrupted views of the coast, a hamper of local produce and wildlife spotting.

A country house in the bustling heart of town, just minutes from shops, restaurants and markets but with quiet walks along the River Asker

In a profoundly peaceful spot between arty St Ives and stunning Marazion, a hideaway for two surrounded by gardens and parkland

Spacious house with a big garden, a swimming pool and all home comforts; the beach and good restaurants are less than 10 minutes away

A heavenly setting for this very well-hidden cottage with its own small pool, amazing views and delightful pebble beach below

The views are open and green, the houses are homely (with hints of luxury) and the gardens face the river. Perfect for all ages…

Two family and dog friendly retreats for lovers of the countryside, birdwatchers and those wishing to escape the crowds
