Despite the advent of cheap flights to far-flung destinations the county of Cornwall is still a perennial favourite amongst travellers and visitors. Situated on the southwesterly tip of the UK, this mystical land is home to legends of great kings, magic and mystery dating back to Neolithic times. The county relies on tourism and visitors for much of its income and consequently visitors to this beautiful and wild part of the country are well catered for.
Cornwall holiday cottages are one of the most cost-effective and relaxing ways to explore the riches of the region. From tiny fisherman's cottages ideal for a romantic break to barn conversions and farmhouses for large groups or family holidays, there's something to suit every taste and every pocket. Transport links to Cornwall have improved dramatically over the past 20 years and with the opening of the new A30 bypass the old summer bottlenecks and endless queues of traffic are a thing of the past.
Choosing a self-catering break in Cornwall holiday cottage is also an economical way to plan your time in the county. Rather than relying on set meal times and hotel schedules you can plan your own itinerary and meal times, giving you more time to explore the marvels of this mysterious region. A holiday cottage also gives you all the comforts and conveniences of a home from home – perfect if you spend time at one of Cornwall's many beaches and have a pile of clothes to dry at the end of the day! With self-catering holiday cottages in Cornwall, you also have the opportunity to try the local produce which is renowned for its quality and freshness. And if you tire of cooking, there are plenty of excellent restaurants and eateries to try for a special evening out.
Situated from the wilds of Bodmin Moor to the coastal villages and towns of the Lizard Peninsula, holiday cottages in Cornwall make an ideal base for exploring. If you have a particular interest (surfing, for example) you can choose a cottage close to your preferred activity, allowing you to spend more time having fun and less time driving to and from your destination. Many holiday cottages are also pet-friendly (for a small, additional fee) so there's no reason to leave the family dog at home while you go on holiday. This can save you money by cutting down on kennel costs as well as making sure everyone has a fun break together.
