With so many great places in Cornwall, we were looking for a place fairly central from which to explore, and with either a hot tub or swimming pool. It would be hard to find anywhere more perfect for that than Coombe Farm Cottages.
Crackington Haven is probably the nearest beach, only about 20 mins drive away, with stunning coastal walks where you can see seals, Puffins and Peregrine Falcons, and has amazing views.
The cottages are situated in an idyllic country setting with zero noise and light pollution, and is only 5-10 mins from the main A30 route, which is the best road for exploring the south of Cornwall. We spent days in St Ives, St Agnes, Fowey, Eden Project, Chapel Porth Beach (highly recommend this for surfers) as well as Bude, all easily accessible for day trips.
The cottage we stayed in was Morvoren, the most private of the four cottages and idea for a couple. It has a very cosy rustic country feel to it but with all the mod cons including washing machine and dishwasher and two TVs. We never felt the need to use the wood burner as the underfloor heating was just right, but I’m sure that would be well used in the winter. Everything was clean, comfortable and well maintained, and nearly everything one would want or need was thought of.
We has a wonderful relaxing holiday, but don’t feel we have even touched the surface with what Cornwall has to offer. Loved being amongst the animals and we will definitely return again.
