ROMANTIC COTTAGES IN CORNWALL

Steal a kiss under the stars, discover a secret cove and watch a sunset like no other in one of our romantic escapes

Walk hand-in-hand along dramatic beaches and write your names in the sand. Dive into the surf then watch the sunset over the waves. Pop the bubbly and plunge into the hot tub.

DINING OUT

Thinking of dining out during your self-catering stay? There’s nothing more romantic than a beautiful meal sat next to a crackling fire with a bottle of something bubbly. Cornwall has many charming pubs with award-winning restaurants to choose from. Book into Nathan Outlaw’s in Port Isaac; recently voted the UK’s number one restaurant, receiving two Michelin stars. Grab some Rick Stein fish and chips and watch the waves roll in at Fistral. Or use one of our recommended caterers and enjoy a cosy night in from the comfort of your own retreat. The choice is yours.

Romantic holidays by the beach in Cornwall

THINGS TO DO

Cornwall is filled to the brim with romance, no matter the time of year. Hunker by the log fire and listen to storms rumble over the ocean in winter, crunch leaves on a magical woodland walk whilst you make a wish at St Nectan’s Glen Waterfall, or take in the awe-inspiring views as you watch a show under the stars at the famous Minack Theatre.

If you’re looking to leave the crowds behind and indulge in a little you time, Beach Retreats has hand-picked some of Cornwall’s most hidden treasures, where you can escape the bucket-and-spade brigades and leave footprints in pristine sands.
