Why choose between coastal and rural settings for your holiday when you can have both? That's what you get at this serenely quiet Cornish retreat. A collection of three beautifully presented homes – including two former barns and a Victorian Gothic-style cottage – it’s located in forty acres of private countryside. On the farm estate, you'll find your own private riverside shingle beach to walk to, and further afield, sandy beaches just 13 miles away. Highlights of the estate include three hot tubs (two electric, one wood-fired), three wood burners, and three flat-screen satellite televisions and DVD players, along with a selection of books, board games, and DVDs. You’ll also have use of the tennis court, orchard picnic area, basketball hoop, communal games room with table tennis, woodland, and nature reserve. For that extra special touch, the hosts can organise private wild food foraging workshops, stand-up paddle boarding tuition, spa treatments, or afternoon tea. Basically, it’s a fantastic group trip destination, whether you’re a party of four or fourteen.
