Which Cornwall cottages to stay in

There are so many cottages in Cornwall that holidaymakers are spoilt for choice; some of the most picturesque and beautiful towns in the UK are in the south west. If you want to stay on the coast, you have the option of the rugged northern coastline (exposed to the Atlantic) or the more sheltered southern coastline. In the north, cottages in St Ives, Bude, St Agnes and Newquay are popular with holidaymakers for their sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs. On the south side, Penzance, Falmouth and Lizard are home to beaches with coarse sand, shingle and rocky coastline. The south side is particularly popular with fishing fanatics due to the fantastic angling opportunities.

Eating during your Cornwall cottage break

Foodie visitors to cottages in Cornwall are in for a treat; Cornwall is home to some of Britain's most highly rated restaurants. Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant in Padstow, his Fish and Chip shop in Falmouth and Jamie Oliver's Fifteen near Newquay all get rave reviews for their fresh produce, creative cooking methods and innovative menus. There's no better place to enjoy a romantic seafood dinner (even if it is fish and chips) than at any one of these places.
