Beaches | Devon and Cornwall

Devon and Cornwall boasts some of the finest coastline in the country. There are hundreds of fine sandy beaches and picturesque coves to be discovered. From the dramatic North Coast, exposed to westerly storms and pounding surf to the South Coast where the climate is more gentle.

There are so many beautiful places… here are a few of my favourites.

Croyde Bay in North Devon, simple magnificent.

Holywell Bay, North Cornwall has the most wonderful sand dunes. This glorious place was used for most of the beach scenes in Poldark.

Polzeath Beach… many happy childhood memories.

The Lizard, Cornwall’s most southerly point.

What our customers think…

A truly wonderful place to stay.
This is our third year of coming here. Year 1 we stayed in The White Room- lovely comfy room, gorgeous views from the bedroom window, excellent breakfast. Year 2 in The Cottage, self catering. Quiet, relaxing with its own patio plus all the other sitting areas in the garden . This year in The Lodge, a 2 bedroom, 2 bath sumptuous retreat. Elevated wide terrace enjoys incredible, Dartmoor views Jane is a treasure. Welcoming, helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Easy access moor and coast.
