Holiday Cottages Cornwall

Find the right base for your Cornwall holiday

Start with the part of Cornwall you want to explore, then narrow your choice by dates, guests and the features that matter to your stay. A cottage beside the beach, a home near a harbour and a countryside retreat can offer very different holidays, even when they share the same nearest town. Check the location and property details before choosing.

Where would you like to stay?

Bude holiday cottages give you a starting point for the north coast. Compare homes in and around Bude with Widemouth Bay, and check whether your chosen beach, shops and places to eat are a walk or a drive away.

For the west, explore St Ives cottages and Carbis Bay cottages. They are neighbouring destinations with different locations to compare. Look closely at beach access, hills, parking and the route from your cottage into town. Our Carbis Bay beach and arrival guide helps you compare the journey.

Padstow cottages include bases for exploring the town and surrounding area. A harbour visit and a quiet village stay need different arrival plans: check the property's actual address and parking arrangements. Our Padstow restaurant guide can help you plan where to eat.

Compare Newquay holiday cottages with nearby Mawgan Porth and Watergate Bay. Choose your beach and preferred setting first, then check how each home fits your plans. For a different base, browse Falmouth or Fowey cottages, with their harbour and waterside surroundings.

Choose the features that matter to you

Our dog-friendly cottages and family-friendly cottages bring relevant stays together. Check the individual property's dog rules, garden details, sleeping arrangements and equipment: accepting dogs does not necessarily mean an enclosed garden, and family facilities vary.

Compare cottages with sea views, cottages with hot tubs and cottages with pools. Use the photographs and facility descriptions to understand the outlook, access and whether a facility is private or shared. A sea view does not always mean direct beach access.

For time together, explore romantic cottages in Cornwall. Compare one-bedroom options, privacy and dining access, then check whether the chosen home has its own hot tub, a spa bath or neither.

Planning to swim during your stay? Compare cottages with swimming pools in Cornwall by private or shared use, indoor or outdoor setting, seasonal opening and any hotel-pass limits.

Check dates and how to book

Planning a trip around a festival? Our Cornwall festivals and events guide brings together confirmed dates and nearby cottage bases, with transport and ticket details to check before you book.

Enter your dates and party size to narrow the results. For a two, three or four-night visit, browse short breaks in Cornwall; choose your arrival date and number of nights, then check the property’s minimum stay and the total price for those dates.

Follow the option shown on your chosen property: some stays offer online booking, others invite an enquiry, and partner stays take you to the named provider. Check the full price, availability and booking terms before confirming. If you need help choosing an area, explore our Cornwall destination guide or contact the Cornish Secrets team.

For a festive escape, compare Christmas and New Year cottages and check our 2026 Cornwall Christmas market dates before choosing your travel days.

Choose your coastal base: compare sea view cottages in Cornwall by the outlook and beach access, or explore Falmouth and nearby waterside stays with our Falmouth parking advice.

Make time for the places you want to see: our picturesque Cornwall guide helps plan days out. For relaxing at the cottage, compare hot tub facilities and swimming pool arrangements before booking.
