Time Travel with Cottage Holidays Cornwall

Holidays are wonderful and cottage holidays in Cornwall are just what the doctor ordered to find rest and rejuvenation away from the hustle and bustle of our crazy world. Come along, let’s travel back in time.



At the South-western end of the United Kingdom, the weather is better here than any other place in the UK. Spring comes early in Cornwall and is followed by gorgeous summer weather for endless, steamy nights at the beach or refreshing days in the ocean waters.

Cornwall is an area rich in legend and folklore and some of the most gorgeous, peaceful scenery known. Whether you want to surf and eat in some of the world’s finest seafood restaurants or explore ancient times and walk down streets that are seemingly lost in time, Cornwall is the place for your next cottage holiday.

Cottage holidays in Cornwall can be spent in a number of quaint villages and coastal or rural areas. For more than 20 years, Toad Hall Cottages has paid the utmost attention to detail to provide the very best in luxury amenities.

With some of the properties being VisitBritain graded at a 5 star level, Toad Hall Cottages is also a member of the English Association of Self-Catering Operators (EASCO) as well as Cottage-Line, which is an association that includes agents with similar high standards in England, Scotland and Wales.

Many of the cottage holidays Cornwall are located in Looe and Polperro. Both villages offer serene settings and a window into ancient times. The fishing industry in Looe and Polperro has withstood the test of time providing the area with amazing catches and cuisine since the 13th century.

Artists, photographers and filmmakers will enjoy the gorgeous setting of Polperro. History buffs and storytellers alike will greatly enjoy walking the unadulterated village streets that take each pedestrian on an adventure into the ancient buildings of Looe.

Morwenstow, Welcombe, Bude, and Crackington Haven offer the lore of King Arthur as well as a global garden with amazing plants from nearly every corner of the planet. Or step back into medieval times in Cotehele Estate, Cargreen and St. Mellion in The Tamar Valley. One of the world’s most prestigious golf courses is located in St. Mellion, or if surfing is more your style, try Bovisand.



Speaking of surfing, the beaches of Newquay are home to world surfing championships. If adventure is your thing, you may consider travelling from one of the many Polperro cottages to Bodmin Moor for a potential encounter with the mystical “Beast of Bodmin.” The rugged area has remained virtually unchanged for centuries as have the inhabitants, most of whom have never travelled outside the area.

You may not be able to stay in this timeless paradise forever as the native people do, but please take the time out of your busy life to step back in time and enjoy it for a bit.
