Situated less than a mile from the South West Coast Path and just 4 miles from the famous Lizard Point, this fantastic property promises a truly unforgettable escape for two. Sleeping you both in a super king-size zip-and-link bed and with plenty of space to stretch out and relax, you won’t want to leave this former farm building. But since Cadgwith Cove is just a mile away and there are plenty more beaches to explore, you’re bound to find beautiful places that will tempt you away. The property, which has superb, vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams paired with gleaming decor, is spacious and welcoming. The open-plan living area is fresh and bright with French doors leading out to the garden but draw the blinds at night and light the wood burner and it becomes a cosy little haven. Cook up a hearty meal in the well-equipped kitchen or get grilling on the BBQ in the enclosed garden and spend sunny evenings outside. If you’ve brought your four-legged friend with you and spend the day at the beach, you can wash muddy or sandy paws in the shower that’s shared with two other cottages before you head inside. There’s no need to travel far to enjoy the wonderful scenery that Cornwall has to offer. Coverack (8.5 miles) has crystal-blue waters, while Porthleven Beach (13 miles) has a 3-mile stretch of shore to stroll along. The Cornish Seal Sanctuary (10.5 miles) is a favourite among animal lovers, while guests with green fingers will enjoy a visit to Trebah Garden (16 miles). Take a boat trip with Orca Sea Safaris (23.5 miles) and you might see dolphins, seals and even basking sharks.

Helston, Cornwall

Set in idyllic countryside among other holiday cottages, this stunning property is the perfect romantic bolthole. Sleeping you both in a super king-size zip-and-link bed, this contemporary-styled holiday let is an opportunity to get out and explore the local area knowing that you’ve got a welcoming place to return to. Head down to Cadgwith Cove (1 mile) and wander along the coast path to the Devil’s Frying Pan (a further 500 metres), or visit Lizard Point (4 miles), the most southerly point of mainland Britain. As you enter the property you’re greeted with fresh and bright decor paired with exposed beams and charming farmhouse-style furniture. There’s a perfect blend of countryside feel and subtle coastal touches that create a calming and peaceful atmosphere. The open-plan living area is light and airy during the day, but soon gets cosy in the evening when you light the wood burner. Head out to the enclosed garden to sizzle up a BBQ or simply enjoy an al fresco drink before heading up the stairs to bed among tranquil white tones with blues dotted around in the furnishings. Take a walk from Lizard Point to Kynance Cove (2 miles; 4 miles direct from property) where fantastic cliff rocks and a sandy beach make it the perfect spot for a drink or a picnic. Coverack (8.5 miles) is another wonderful beach, but if you’re more green-fingered than sandy-toed you could visit Trebah Garden (16 miles) where exotic plants bloom. There’s even a path down to a secluded beach, so you can experience the best of both worlds. And if you want to get on the water, take a boat trip with Orca Sea Safaris (23.5 miles) where you might spot dolphins, seals and basking sharks.
