10 Retreats for New Year

24th October 2022

New Year’s Eve by the coast means watching fireworks reflected in harbour waters, dining on seasonal fisherman’s catch of the day and sipping bubbles by a fizzing tide. We have retreats around the Cornish coast where you can dance the night away at one of many street and beach celebrations or simply curl up by the log burner at home. However you choose to see the new year in, do it in Beach Retreats’ style.

Here’s our pick of 10 retreats with New Year availability. We’ve got something for everyone, from couples looking for a romantic weekend away to multi-generational families seeking a large holiday home to celebrate in together.
